International FZP CZU

Our student Eliška spent a week in Scotland as a part of her internship at the University of Salford, meeting Her Royal Highness Princess Anne! Here are her reflections:

As a part of my internship, I went a field trip to the Isle of Great Cumbrae, to the Field Studies Council in Millport. It was a trip for a Marine Biology course at The University of Salford, designed to introduce undergraduate students to data sampling and identifying species in marine ecosystems. I joined this trip as part of my internship at the Environmental Research & Innovation Centre (ERIC), and got invaluable experience in supervising students, as well as learning about UK's marine life.

I helped Professor Mariana Do Amaral C. Lima in tutoring a small group of undergraduate students over the course of the week in:

1️⃣ Identifying and quantifying species collected through an exploratory trawl with the council's vessel.

2️⃣ Guiding students in data collection at a rocky shore site - using transects and quadrats to assess its biodiversity.

3️⃣ Assisting sampling at a sandy shore - using transects, quadrats, and fishnets to quantify and demonstrate the differences among all the locations.

The entire (sunny!) week was full of learning, observing wildlife, and fun activities. We were also joined by Her Royal Highness Princess Anne, who was keen on getting to know more about our work.

🎓🌿 Congratulations to our Landscape Architecture Master’s students!

The thesis defenses and state exams have been successfully completed, and we are incredibly proud of all our graduates for their hard work, creativity, and dedication throughout their studies.

We are happy to see another group of talented students begin a new chapter — whether in professional practice, research, or further studies.

Thank you for being part of our faculty, and we wish you all the best in your future journeys 💚

🇬🇧🌍 University of Salford students visited FZP CZU for the third time!
This year, 49 students joined the field trip, making it one of our largest visits yet 👏
Co‑organised by Peter Kumble (Department of Landscape and Urban Planning) and supported by our GSN student ambassadors, the programme combined campus tours, field trips, lectures, urban farming and water research across Prague 🌱💧
A great example of long‑term international cooperation in action.

Thank you everyone who joined our trip to the Únětice Brewery! We had a lot of fun with perfect weather! Good luck to everyone with your exams, you’re gonna crush it. 😉 Super excited for the next event in June - our end-of-year party!! 🍻🍺👯
