Our Story

First Faculty of Medicine with almost 1 200 staff members and 4 500 students represents the largest medical faculty in Prague and in the Czech Republic. It is an integral part of Charles University from its foundation by the King of Bohemia and Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire Charles the Fourth in 1348. As such, it is also the oldest medical faculty in Central Europe. However, it is not just the majestic history and impressive quantitative measures that would be enough to make the institution successful and competitive. It must be ideas, people, capacities and management, which finally will be responsible for the future, profit and serviceability of any institution. We will be happy answer any of your questions regarding study and life in Prague.
