On 1 September 2020, the youngest faculty of the University of Hradec Králové celebrated a ten-year anniversary. Over the past decade, it has managed to grow into an institution that may pride itself on many educational and scientific success stories.
The Faculty of Science accredited several new study programmes, one of which is rather unique; it is the only study programme in the Czech Republic that offers education in the field of Toxicology from undergraduate to PhD level.
In 2017, the Faculty relocated to new premises, once a standalone building had been erected for the Faculty at the Na Soutoku Campus with modern facilities for both students and teachers and with almost three dozen state-of-the-art laboratories. Consequently, the Faculty may now fully engage in all its scientific and research activities. In the few years of its existence, the Faculty managed to author or co-author 14 research projects under the Czech Science Foundation, 13 projects under the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic and many other national and international projects.
“We have just finished our first start-up decade. What will the next one be like? I wish all of us many content students and lots of breakthrough research projects. And I hope the public awareness of our Faculty will spread from Hradec Králové to the entire world,” commented the Dean of the Faculty of Science, Jan Kříž.
