The Language Centre at the Faculty of Science is launching a new course, English for International Mobility and Erasmus (JAERA), starting from the spring semester of 2024. This initiative stems from the feedback of students themselves, who often express difficulties navigating the paperwork associated with foreign trips. The course primarily focuses on language preparation for study stays or internships abroad, but it also welcomes students who have previously participated in an exchange or those who simply want to improve and practice their English skills.
The lecturer Mgr. Dlabolová states: “If you are studying a Bachelor’s or Master’s programme and are looking for an opportunity to develop your language skills, you are very welcome. We expect different levels of participants, which will not be an obstacle to sharing learning experiences. A minimum level of B1 is desirable for you to successfully complete your travel preparation and progress in other key areas. In the course, we will introduce interesting issues from your field of study, basic academic skills, and differences in cultural practices. Not sure how to communicate when dealing with common problems while traveling? We will discuss these practical topics as well.”
The imaginary icing on the cake will be the involvement of a proficient international student as a teaching assistant, sharing insights across the globe.
On September 27, 2024, over two hundred enthusiastic scientists, teachers and students prepared 62 stands on the theme ‘Transformations in the natural sciences and mathematics’, attracting more than 4,500 visitors to both SCI MUNI campuses.
On September 24, a group of graduates from the teacher training program in mathematics and physics visited us. They completed their studies in 1970, so we gave them a tour to show how the faculty has changed since then.
