Studying public health in Czechia gives you access to quality European education in the heart of Europe. English-taught programmes are available at both undergraduate and graduate levels for international students.
Which study levels exist
You can choose from bachelor programmes, consecutive master programmes, and doctoral studies. A bachelor degree takes three years, while a master degree typically takes two years. Most public health courses combine theory with practical fieldwork and research projects.
English-taught options
Several public universities offer programmes fully taught in English. You do not need to speak Czech to study these courses. Key options to look for include:
- Global public health
- Healthcare management
- Epidemiology and prevention
Typical entry requirements
To enter a bachelor programme, you need a completed secondary school education and a recognised school-leaving certificate. For a master programme, you must hold a relevant bachelor degree. Universities usually require:
- Proof of English proficiency, such as IELTS or TOEFL
- Entrance exams in biology, chemistry, or general aptitude
- A motivation letter and an academic CV
Tuition fees and living costs
Studying in Czech is free at public universities for all students. If you choose a programme taught in English, tuition fees typically range from two thousand to six thousand euros per year. Living costs for accommodation, food, and transport generally range from four hundred to seven hundred euros per month.
Timeline and next steps
Admissions deadlines usually fall between January and April for programmes starting in autumn. Start gathering your documents early, as translating and legalising school certificates takes time. Always check the official university admissions page for exact dates.
