Virtual tour of the UCT Prague

 

History

UCT Prague was founded in 1952 but its origins date back to 1807 when the first course in chemistry was delivered at Prague Polytechnic. Reorganization of the polytechnic in 1920 resulted in the transformation of the chemistry department into the School of Chemical Technology, one of the seven sections of the Czech Technical University.

A number of key figures of the history of chemistry relate to UCT Prague. Among them, three figures are renowned in their fields: Vladimir Prelog, Nobel Prize winner, Otto Wichterle, inventor of contact lenses, and Emil Votoček, author of the Czech chemical nomenclature.

Several presidents of the Czech Academy of Sciences – František Šorm, Rudolf Zahradník, and Jiří Drahoš – are connected with the school as well.

UCT Prague was the first Czech university authorised to provide the Eurobachelor degree. As its name indicates, this prestigious recognition certifies the quality of UCT Prague bachelor studies at the European level.

Especially applicants from India, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Bhútán, Chad, Cameroon, Maledives, and Nepal, should apply for the visa AS SOON AS POSSIBLE once they receive a Letter of Acceptance because of the competition at the embassies in Abuja (Nigeria), Accra (Ghana) and New Delhi (India) which is enormous, and the appointment slots are very limited!

We encourage all applicants to visit the website of the respective Czech embassy for their country and learn in advance what documents are required when applying for a visa.

The Recognition of Foreign Education is a process of verifying that the education level which you have completed abroad is equal to the education level required for studying at a university in the Czech Republic. In this process, your Diploma/Graduation Certificate and the Transcript of Records are assessed by Czech institutions, and at the end of the process, a Nostrification/Recognition Certificate is issued to you. 

The Recognition of Foreign Education is an indispensable requirement for admission to the studies at UCT Prague.

Contact details:
Applicants for a study at UCT Prague please contact admissions@vscht.cz (Chemical Programmes) or business.admission@vscht.cz  (School of Business) for guidance if needed.

 

Explanatory notes:

  • Recognition of Previous Education / Nostrification = process of verifying that the education level which you have completed abroad is equal to the education level required for studying at a university in the Czech Republic. This process is done in the Czech Republic by Czech institutions. 

  • Authentication: Apostille / Superlegalization = Apostille or Superlegalization is a process of verification that the signatures and stamps on the document are genuine. This process is a mandatory requirement in case of certain countries, and the documents are incomplete without this verification. This process is done in the country where the documents have been issued.

  • Verified (notary-certified / true) Copy = An official certified copy identical to the original. It is verified by a notary or by an official authority in your country and confirmed with an official stamp.

    In the Czech Republic, the verified copies are issued by a notary (the notary makes an official copy of a document and then stamps it, which proves the authenticity of the document).

    Please learn what the process is like in your country. UCT Prague needs to receive official true copies of the Diploma and Transcripts of Records which are exactly the same as the originals.

    These true copies should be also firmly attached to a translation to English/Czech (if the document isn’t issued in English), and they should be also firmly attached to an Apostille/Superlegalization clause (issued by an authority in your country and/or a Czech embassy).

 

 

Why is a verified copy required? UCT Prague must keep the documents archived for 45 years; therefore, if you send us an original document, we cannot return it back to you. Do not provide the originals of your documents to anyone as you may need them for other matters during your life. 

 

 

A Short Overview of the Process

You can submit the online application without uploading a Certificate of Recognition, however, when filling in the online application, you must choose a method of recognition based on where your Diploma / Graduation Certificate and Transcript of Records have been issued

In the online application you will find these options: 

    1. I have a diploma issued by a school in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Poland or Hungary = choose this option if your Graduation Certificate / Diploma has been issued in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Poland or Hungary
    2.  I have a European Baccalaureate Diploma = choose this option if you have received a European Baccalaureate diploma
    3.  I have a diploma and DON'T have a Nostrification Certificate = choose this option if you haven't got a Nostrification Certificate from a Czech institution yet.
      If you choose this option, your documents will be assessed by UCT Prague and if complying with the requirements, the Certificate of Recognition of Previous Foreign Education will be issued as a part of the admission process. 
    4. I have a Nostrification Certificate issued in the Czech Republic and a diploma = choose this option if you have gone through the process of Nostrification, and you have already received an official Certificate of Nostrification from Prague City Hall or a similar official Czech authority

 

Regardless of which option you choose, you will need to deliver a verified copy of your Diploma and Transcript of Records to UCT Prague AS SOON AS POSSIBLE after you receive your Letter of Acceptance, however, by August 31 at the latest.

APPLICATION PROCESSING TIME

The deadlines for the proceedings are set by the general rules of administrative procedures, i.e. 30 days since the delivery. In complex cases, the deadline can be extended by 30 more days. An applicant will receive information on the result of the assessment via email.

More Information 

 If it is found during the recognition proceeding that it is not within the scope of the rector’s responsibility to make a decision on the request for recognition of foreign higher education, e.g. because UCT Prague does not provide a similar study programme, the fee is not charged, and, if already paid, will be returned to the applicant.

There is no refund of the fee if the recognition proceeding is discontinued due to a deficient application (absence of documents necessary for assessing the application), and the applicant’s failure to remove the deficiency upon request. 

There is no refund of the fee in case of rejection of the application due to substantial differences between the compared study programmes.

In case the purpose of the recognition is not further study, the equality of the education will be assessed in accordance with the Agreement – if substantial differences between the compared study programmes are found, the rector may reject the application.

APPEAL PROCEDURE

Applicants are entitled to submit an appeal within 15 days of receiving the decision. The appeal is submitted to the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic through the University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague (or, in general terms, through the institution that has issued the decision). The university will either allow the appeal in full or passes it on to the Czech Ministry of Education no later than 30 days upon receipt of the appeal. The Ministry will then issue a final decision.
