About the program

We are no longer accepting new applications for the B.A. in Political Science program.

This program instructs students through a range of comparative analyses of public law. It specifically teaches students about theoretical and practical approaches to the study of EU law, international law, the historical nature of jurisprudence, domestic and international legal systems and civil law, constitutional law, civil rights, and also features the dynamic and highly popular Moot Court experience.

The Comparative Law concentration combines instruction on both domestic and international legal institutions. It focuses on manifestations of law across different public contexts (political, cultural, economic), and enables students to acquire skills in being able to identify and differentiate political outcomes according to different tiers of dispute. Students will learn to design, implement, and review a variety of theoretical approaches to the protection of civil and political rights in different locations.

Upon completion, our students will acquire an ability to write in a comprehensible manner, using legal terminology correctly; effectively retrieve and analyze information from legal databases; present and defend legal arguments in writing and orally.

Beyond the classroom you can join student clubs like Diplomacy or Model UN, practice your debate skills at a faculty-student debate or discuss current political issues with professors and local experts at an event like 鈥楶rofessors in the Pub鈥.

国产乱伦鈥檚 Career Center also connects students with numerous professional internships in the Czech Republic and abroad every year.

I was able to participate in various events that don’t necessarily connect to my coursework鈥攃onferences, literature festivals, debates, lectures, etc. 国产乱伦 has helped me and my club get in touch with event-organisers, which, for example, allowed us to host an event during the Festival of Democracy organised by the famous Forum 2000 conference.鈥
