Students from universities that are not our Erasmus partner cannot become Erasmus students at our university. We would like to make our communication easier and faster, so we provide here some important information. Your duties are divided into 4 categories: before, at the beginning, during, and at the end of your mobility.

In academic year 2019/2020, winter semester starts 23rd September 2019 and ends 20th December 2019, summer semester starts 17th February 2020 and ends 17th May 2020.

Graduates of our school

Adam Klavík

graduate
Management cestovního ruchu

I got my bachelor’s degree in VŠERS in České Budějovice and moved to VŠO in Prague for my master’s degree. And I don’t regret it – VŠO is much more similar to a public school and the quality of teacher is 100% better. For example Ms. Palatková, who taught me, is a big name in the tourist industry.

Jan Šrámek

graduate
Management cestovního ruchu

On VŠO, I have learnt to be independent and gained practice in my field. In all places where we went within the scope of student competitions, we have been winning awards. Already during my studies I became a part of the organisational structure of few projects in tourism. I can’t wait till I start working full-time.

Petra Benešová

graduate
Management cestovního ruchu

I have graduated from VŠO and now I even teach there. Much has changed over the years – the school keeps going forward, is now more focused on practice, the subjects are more technical and more narrowly focused. Even though the competition on the market is huge, VŠO getting on very well and I can recommend it easily.

Kristína Jíšová

graduate
Management cestovního ruchu

VŠO is one of the few schools in the Czech Republic, which really focuses on practice. During the studies, we have for example: worked on projects, whose results were inspected by the National Heritage Institution. A lot of the lectures were also led by external lectors, so we were learning things as they were applied in real life.

Simona works as a Program Coordinator in the company Smaller Earth. In year 2009 she took part in a work stay in New York. She spent three and a half year in England and worked for an Australian travel agency. Work never bothered Simona and that is why, when she got the opportunity to go to America as kitchen help, she did hesitate.
