Czech Technical University in Prague
Czech Technical University in Prague is one of the largest and oldest technological universities in Europe. It was founded in 1707. CTU currently has 8 faculties and 21,000 students. There is a large and active student community in the city, and the modern transport system makes it easy to get around to taste the many different beers the Czech Republic is known for.
The ‘City of a Hundred Spires’ is the capital of the Czech Republic. The city’s intriguing history unfolds as you pass the Prague Astronomical Clock and street art in the Old Town and continue across the iconic Charles Bridge and up to Prague Castle in Hradcany. There are also plenty of opportunities to view modern art and listen to music while you are there.
