ESN UP Olomouc assists the international students of Palacký University Olomouc, which is a member of many inter-university programmes, including Erasmus+. Therefore, hundreds of foreign students from all over the world have the opportunity to come to Olomouc every year and study at one of its 8 faculties. Since February 2005 ESN UP Olomouc has been the 4th section of the ESN CZ.
At present, we organise and run several activities, such as:
- Buddy System - become a friends with an Erasmus student and be his backup
- Sport Activities - creating opportunities for sport
- Trips - go for a trip within and outside of the Czech Republic
- Events - social work, celebrations of Holidays, dinners, national parties etc.
Our main aim is to assist international exchange students coming to UP by helping them get familiarised with the new studying environment, get to know the Czech student society and Czech culture. Another goal of ESN UP Olomouc is to help Czech students meet foreign students, because they can improve their foreign-language skills, make new friends from all over the world and share and compare their knowledge and opinions.
