Anotace

The Humanities Exam is designed to let the students creatively and interdisciplinary present the problem of their academic interest. It assumes the students' ability to combine, compare and use the knowledge acquired by taking the core theoretical courses and the compulsory elective courses. The exam is in a form of a presentation, prepared by students in advance that should demonstrate the ability to work in the various fields they have been exposed to while studying Liberal Arts and Humanities.
