• In the winter and summer semester, the offer of optional subjects includes Master’s Project 1 and Master’s Project 2. If the student chooses MP1, they must also sign up for MP2. In both subjects, students in groups solve an extensive specialised project, depending on which specialisation they are studying. In the summer semester in MP2 they then defend the project.
• Second-year students in the summer semester sign up for optional subjects from the second year offer.
• From the proposal of optional specialized courses, it is possible to choose the English language course and only one more foreign language course (outside the mother tongue) in the maximum of two semesters to encounter credits in of total of 120 during the master study.
• Here students choose subject based on their specialisation, so that the resulting number of credits from mandatory, mandatorily optional and optional subjects is at least 120 credits. Subject Corporate English I and II: if the student also signs up for English Conversation for FEI during follow-up master’s study, the credits either from Corporate English or from Conversation shall be included in their 120 credits.
• Subject: English, German, Russian and Spanish conversation are designated for:
1. Students who wish to travel for foreign study exchanges (e.g. within the Erasmus program) sign up for the subject for the semester before their planned departure.
2. Students taking a follow-up master’s degree, based on the capacity of the language department.
3. Students taking a bachelor’s degree, who have taken an exam in a foreign language (usually after passing four semesters of foreign language lessons), based on the capacity of the language department.
