About us
The Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering at Czech Technical University in Prague is a world-class centre for nuclear engineering, offering Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctoral programmes that blend theory with cutting-edge research facilities, including our own research reactor, tokamak and laser laboratories. Alongside nuclear engineering, faculty trains material scientists, chemical engineers, radiologists and particle physicists (in close collaboration with CERN), as well as specialists in mathematical engineering (analysing and modelling financial markets) and computer science (developing database systems for CERN and mainframe computing).
From day one, students build strong foundations in mathematics, physics and computer science, with the freedom to transfer between study fields during their first two years, ensuring they find the path that best matches their ambitions. A key advantage is early integration into research teams, preparing graduates for leadership roles in academia and industry worldwide.

Why Study at us?
Gain hands-on experience in nuclear research facilities—our on-campus research reactor, tokamak and high-power laser labs—while studying alongside a diverse, international community. Early integration into research teams and dual-degree partnerships with top European universities (including CERN collaborations) ensure you graduate with industry-ready skills.
Cafeterias & Dining
Enjoy budget-friendly meals at CTU’s central cafeterias on the Dejvice campus. Menus feature Czech and international dishes, with vegetarian and vegan options—perfect for busy students on a budget.
Courses & Curriculum
Build a solid foundation through core courses in mathematics, physics and computer science, then specialise with modules in reactor physics, materials science, radiological engineering or fusion technology. Electives span data science, AI, environmental engineering and more—plus summer schools and intensive short courses.
Accommodation
First-year international students can apply for guaranteed places in CTU dormitories, located a short tram ride from the Dejvice campus. Private flats and shared apartments are also available nearby; the FNSPE International Office offers a housing-finder service and roommate matching to help you settle in.
Campuses & Facilities
Study on the leafy Dejvice campus—home to modern lecture halls, computer labs, library and student clubs—with regular shuttle service to our Březová research campus, which houses specialised test facilities. 24/7 access to maker spaces (3D printers, CNC machines) supports both academic projects and creative exploration.
