Studies and life outside school
You are studying and school takes up a significant portion of your time. Spend enough time on it to complete your studies successfully but remember to include other activities as well. Go to lectures and societies, find part-time work or an internship and try anything you might enjoy. Develop yourself, find your direction and meet new people. This will help you broaden your horizons during your Bachelor's studies, and then you can start to focus on specific fields and goals during your Master's studies.
Study guidance and scholarship assistance
If a subject is a problem for you, visit the tutor database at the Tutors page and get help in time. UCT Prague also offers opportunities for students who have difficulty in studying due to health reasons (dyslexia, etc.). All you have to do is register as a student with special needs and the CCC will help tailor your studies to you.
If you are facing a difficult personal situation complicating your studies or you don't know which direction to take at school and in your career, take advantage of counselling services. The CCC can provide you with a psychologist, career counsellor or socio-legal help.
Get involved in extracurricular activities
You can get involved in a number of student societies that focus on everything from sports, culture, gaming, to event organisation. You can also get involved in the Academic Senate and have a say in the school's affairs.
Sign up for the mentoring programme to find out more about working in the field you're interested in. The school will connect you with a mentor who will show you what their job entails and help you decide on your next career path. They will give you experience and contacts that are guaranteed to come in handy.
The CCC regularly organizes courses and workshops to help you improve your practical skills. External experts focus on topics such as critical thinking, effective communication and financial literacy. In addition, a number of workshops offer the possibility of awarding a certificate, which may prove useful when you apply for a job.
Work experience and job opportunities
Development within part-time jobs or internships can also help you with your future direction. In cooperation with chemical technology companies, UCT Prague provides internship programmes or part-time work that allows you to get a glimpse into the industry and try out how a working team operates.
At the latest in Year 3, visit the school Chem-iK Job Fair and find out what opportunities the job market offers. The sooner you start looking at job offers, attending lectures with practitioners, reading interviews and getting to know people in the field, the easier it will be to find the right career path. Observe what's going on around you, evolve and sooner or later you will find whatever fulfils you.
