The Applied Engineering study programme provides you with a practically oriented follow-up master's degree in the field of mechanical engineering, automation, robotics, and electronically controlled mechanical systems, with a particular focus on the design and manufacturing technology of products made from modern materials, taking into account the use of modern computational methods and artificial intelligence in industrial applications. 

During your studies, you will acquire the necessary knowledge and practical skills in a range of specialized subjects, such as mechanics of bodies and systems, fluid mechanics and thermomechanics, mechatronic systems and robotics, applied finite element methods, fundamentals of automation and Industry 4.0, fundamentals of programming and computer science, and, last but not least, fundamentals of management and project management. The professionally oriented study programme has a strong practical focus, enabling students to gain deeper knowledge and understand the connections between theory and its implementation in solving practical problems.

Applications should only be submitted electronically via the e-application. The admission fee is 650,- CZK and must be paid no later than the closing date for applications of the given round (if you do not enrol, the fee will not be refunded). Further payment instructions (account number, variable symbol) find it in the electronic application.

Recognition of subjects completed in previous studies (university/higher professional school)

Applicants who have previously studied at another university or higher professional school may apply for recognition of previously completed study subjects after enrolling at the College of Polytechnics Jihlava. 
Students always formally enrol in the first semester, but the possibility of subject recognition may shorten their overall study period. Detailed information about the recognition process can be found in the IS VŠPJ in the section Study – Recognition of subjects. This section is accessible to students after successful enrolment in the study programme. We recommend submitting applications as soon as possible after enrolling in your studies so that the results are known before study subject registration and timetable creation begin. The application is usually processed within 30 days.

Applications are assessed by the directors of the relevant study programmes based on the conditions listed below:

• Current nature of the completed part of the study programme: The subject completion must not be older than five years on the date of application.
• Corresponding content: The minimum content overlap with the subject included in the College of Polytechnics study plan must be at least 75%.
• Study results in the subject:
  • If the subject has been graded, marks of 1 or 2 (on a scale of 1–4) or grades of A, B, or C (on a scale of A–F) may be recognized.
  • If the subject was completed with granting credits for result acceptance, it can be recognized if it is completed in the same way at the College of Polytechnics Jihlava.
  • If the subject was completed with an examination with a grade of A–E / 1–3, it can be recognized even in case it was completed only with credits for result acceptance at the College of Polytechnics Jihlava.
• Additional information for the recognition of subjects completed at a higher professional school: subjects that are part of the core curriculum of a study programme at the College of Polytechnics Jihlava (see the Study Plans tab) cannot be recognized. 

• • The conditions of admission to study at the College of Polytechnics Jihlava  (hereinafter referred to as the VŠPJ) are set out in accordance with the provisions of Sections 48 to 50 of Act No. 111/1998 Coll., on higher education institutions and on amendments and supplements to other acts (the Higher Education Act), as amended, and in accordance with the Rules of Admission to the College of Polytechnics Jihlava and Articles 11 to 13 of the College of Polytechnics Jihlava Statutes.
  • To be admitted to a study programme, applicants must meet the general conditions and the additional conditions specified for individual study programmes.
  • Knowledge of the Czech language: Foreigners (except for the Slovak Republic) must prove their knowledge of the Czech language by passing a school-leaving examination in Czech (successfully completed school-leaving examination at a Czech secondary school) or by passing a written test or oral interview during the entrance examination at VŠPJ  (understanding spoken language, ability to interact and answering questions determining the applicant´s motivation, expectations, and immediate needs).
