In the remainder of the meeting, the Senate approved the admission criteria for the academic year 2025/2026 for the Bachelor's programmes, for the Czech follow-up programmes and for Digital Linguistics, a joint programme of a consortium of three European universities, without any major comments.

The Academic Senate is the official body of the University self-government, consisting of elected representatives from among staff and students. Thus, the Academic Senate of the Faculty of Informatics consists of the staff (8 members) and student chambers (4 members). The powers and duties of the Senate, defined in the Statute of the Faculty of Informatics, include:
- approving the annual activity report and the annual report on the management of the Faculty, which are submitted by the Dean of the Faculty
- approving the Dean's proposals on the conditions for admission to study in study programmes implemented at the Faculty
- approval of the Dean's proposals on the amount of fees associated with studies
- approval of the Dean's proposals for the appointment or dismissal of members of the Faculty's Scientific Board and Disciplinary Committee
- the right to request an official statement from any member of the academic community
In addition to these powers, student senators have several informal opportunities: as representatives of the student community, they are well placed to discuss with the faculty administration, either when making their own proposals or when dealing with existing problems. Student senators also defend student interests, e.g. when a lecturer is suspected of acting in breach of the CBA.
