4. Conditions of admission to study at the MU Faculty of Arts related to the upcoming extraordinary admission procedure, which will be launched by the entire MU on 15 April 2022
The proposal is presented and introduced by the Vice-Dean Zdenka Jastrzembská.
Rationale:
MU will open an extraordinary admissions procedure exclusively for persons who meet the conditions of the so-called Lex Ukraine, i.e. are subject to temporary protection in the meaning of Act No. 65/2022 Coll. The collection of applications will take place between 15 April and 31 May 2022. Applicants will apply for studies at the MU Faculty of Arts, not for individual programmes. The applications will be assessed by the supervisor (or a committee appointed by him/her) of the programme in which the applicant is interested in the basis of the documents provided (mainly the completed motivation form). On this basis, they will then recommend or not recommend the applicant's admission. The sponsor (or committee) may request a personal interview with the applicant before deciding. Each applicant will also be enrolled in an intensive Czech language course organised by the MU Language Learning Centre, which will run until August 2022. The programme guarantors will be informed of further details.
Discussion
Resolution and vote
5. Proposal for the establishment of the AS FF MU Science Committee
Doc. David Zbíral submits a proposal to establish the AS FF MU Science Committee.
Rationale:
The AS FF MU does not yet have a committee that would deal with the direction of the faculty in the field of science and research. This is an important component of the life of the Faculty, its long-term plan, its reputation and its budget, which needs to be monitored and covered from the perspective of the Senate.
The proposed composition of the committee (candidates have agreed to the nomination):
- Prof. Ivan Foletti, MA, Docteur ès Lettres
- Mgr. et Mgr. Eva Kundtová Klocová, Ph.D.
- Mgr. Jiří Macháček, Ph.D.
- doc. Mgr. Petra Mutlová, M.A., Ph.D.
- prof. Mgr. Klára Šeďová, Ph.D.
- doc. PhDr. David Zbíral, Ph.D.
Discussion
Voting and resolution

It is desirable to comment on the MU Disciplinary Regulations.
Jakub Zikmund, Chairman of the AS FF MU Legislative Committee, will give his reasons.
