On 19 September 1899 the Austrian Emperor and Hungarian King Franz Joseph I signed a decree bringing into existence a Czech technical university in Brno. This was the first Czech higher education institution in Moravia.
With its 20 thousand students and 8 faculties, is the nation's largest technical university. Focusing on science and research, the university now has five of its own research centres and being engaged in two centres of excellence. In recent years, has been among the world's best universities according to international rankings QS World University Ranking and THE World University Ranking.
In the following chapters you can find information on programmes and courses taught in English. BUT offers both short-term and long-term studies at all three levels - Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral.
Research and development activities at BUT centres around non-specified research receiving funding from the state budget. Attention is also given to research projects that are clearly defined and supported by contracting authorities such as the Czech Science Foundation, grant agencies of the Czech government ministries, international grant agencies, and scientific and research programmes.
The South Moravian Innovation Centre (JIC) supports innovation businesses and commercial applications of research and development. It also serves as a go-between for research departments at universities and commercial companies maximising the research and development potential at regional and national levels.
BUT has been cooperating with the leading international companies such as Škoda Auto, Siemens, FEI, Honeywell, Bosch and IBM on a long-term basis. BUT links these companies with students who have the opportunity to pursue an internship related to their field of study or even to be supervised by industry experts while working on their theses. Job offers are shared with both students and graduates.
