Bachelor's Degree 2023/2024

Bachelor's degree programmes are designed for applicants with a secondary education completed with a matriculation diploma. Applicants are required to take the Test of Study Preferences (hereinafter referred to as "TSP") at MU or, in the case of single-subject studies, to apply for a waiver of the entrance examination. The TSP examines the applicant's ability to study successfully. It consists of three separate tests: (1) a numerical-analytical reasoning test, (2) an English reasoning test, and (3) a critical thinking test. The test is common to the Computer Science, Programming and Application Development, and Computer Science in Education programs as well as Cybersecurity. A score in the top 25% of the MU-wide numerical-analytical reasoning test is required for admission. The cumulative score of all three subtests with equal weighting will determine the rank of the applicants.

In the case of applicants with a documented severe physical disability, the suitability of admission with regard to the applicant's future employment may be taken into account in the appeal procedure.

Computer Science, Programming and Application Development and Cybersecurity - single-subject studies

Applicants to the single-subject studies in Informatics, Programming and Application Development or Cybersecurity will be exempted from the admission examination if they have not previously enrolled for a bachelor's degree at FI MU (in the case of the Informatics programme, where more than one curriculum can be chosen, the single-subject study must also be marked as the first priority) and they duly prove that they meet one of the following criteria:

Waiver of the entrance exam

the result of the National Comparative Examination of General Study Assumptions (General Study Assumptions in Czech, General Study Assumptions in Slovak) held no later than the deadline of 2 April 2024 among the top 20%,
the result of the National Comparative Examination in Mathematics held no later than 2 April 2024 among the top 45 %,
a score of at least 580 on the SAT I in mathematics,
a score on an AP (Advanced Placement) exam in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) subject at Level 4 or 5,
a score of at least IQ 130 on a standardized adult IQ entrance test administered by Mensa CR or Mensa SR, and a high school grade point average for the last 4 years in all subjects at the end of the school year (for the final year, the midterm score counts) of their studies of no worse than 1.5, (this is not an average of the averages from each year, but an average of all grades over all years considered)
successful solver of at least a district round (i.e. if the competition does not have a district round, a regional or higher round is considered) of a secondary school professional competition in the Czech Republic included in the SŠ Excellence Programme from the following list: Mathematical Olympiad (category A, B, P), Physical Olympiad (category A, B), Chemical Olympiad (category A, B), Astronomical Olympiad (category A, B), Biological Olympiad (category A, B), Logical Olympiad (category C), Programming Competition (category SŠ - youth programming languages, SŠ - web programming)
or a successful solver of at least the regional round of a secondary school professional competition in Slovakia from the following list: Mathematical Olympiad (category A), Informatics Olympiad (category A), Physical Olympiad (categories A, B), Chemical Olympiad (category A), Biological Olympiad (category A), ZENIT in programming (category A, Web Developer, Graphic Designer)
successful solver of the regional round of the Secondary School Vocational Activity (SOČ) in the fields of mathematics and statistics; physics; chemistry; electrical engineering, electronics telecommunications; computer science,
finalist of the High School Competition in Cyber Security (organized by AFCEA,https://www.kybersoutez.cz/),
successful solver of the correspondence seminar in computer science organized by FI MU.

In all criteria, only results realized in 2022 (except IQ - unlimited) and later can be taken into account.

A candidate meeting any of the above criteria who is interested in a waiver of the entrance examination must apply for such a waiver in writing and deliver the written application to the FI Study Department by the deadline. If the request is granted, the student will be notified in writing of the decision. The required documents for the application of each criterion will be specified on the FI website and on the application form.

The applicant for a waiver of the examination will enter the written request in the e-application form no later than 29 February 2024, even if the applicant submits the required documents for the application of a criterion after this deadline, but no later than 16 April 2024.

Computer Science and Computer Science in Education - combined curricula

Applicants for the combined curriculum (major/minor) must pass the entrance examination and satisfy the requirements of the associate degree programme in order to be admitted to the Computer Science and Computer Science in Education programmes. The waiver of the entrance exam is not available for associate degree programmes except for combinations with the Faculty of Science. The conditions for the waiver of the entrance exam are published on the Faculty of Science website.

Estimated numbers of students admitted

Computer Science - 350
Computer Science major - 20
Computer Science minor - 20
Programming and Application Development - 150
Cybersecurity - 80
Computer Science in Education - 20 - only available in the minor option, applications should be submitted to the Faculty of Science at MU (in combination with Biology, Physics, Geography and Cartography or Mathematics - all with a focus on education).

Application deadlines: 1 November 2023 - 29 February 2024

Approved by the Academic Senate of the Faculty of Informatics of MU on 30 June 2023.

The test of academic aptitude

Dates for TSP: December 2023 - April 2024

If an applicant applies to more than one MU course (or faculty), he/she will take the test only once in a given year; the results will be counted towards all applications for which the TSP is relevant.
