Welcome to the Faculty of Economics of the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice!
Even though the Faculty of Economics is a rather young part of the University of South Bohemia, the Faculty has recorded many successes. The Faculty can offer a series of study fields at all university educational levels. The Faculty of Economics creates and provides an independent creative environment supporting cognition in the field of economic disciplines with focus on economics and management and socio-economic factors of regional development. The basis of our success is the high-level provision of processes of scientific and research activities and teaching with a stress on the co-operation of academic staff, students, representatives of business and public institutions in the region of South Bohemia, the Czech Republic and abroad.
The Faculty is successfully evolving its scientific research activities. The Faculty has been recently involved in many projects provided by the following research agencies: Czech Science Foundation (GAČR), National Agency for Agricultural Research (NAZV), Ministry of Education , and Youth and Sport of the Czech Republic (MŠMT). The Faculty is also involved in these projects: Aktion, Socrates Grundvig, ESF, and projects of Visegrád Four - Support for virtual study in V-4 countries. Other development of the research field has been supported by internal project competition secured by Science Foundation of the University of South Bohemia.
The Faculty co-operates with a line of foreign universities and international institutions. The academic staff and students can participate in study and teaching exchange programmes at academic institutions including universities in Germany, Austria, France, Hungary, Spain, Poland, Slovakia, Italy, Slovenia, USA and Australia. The Faculty administrates together with Szent István University in Gödöllö (Hungary) a newly opened double-degree specialization in the study field of Structural Policy of the EU and Rural Development called Rural Development and Agribusiness in the English language. Another double-degree programme is prepared with Université de Bretagne-Sud, Lorient Cedex (Francie).
