Preparatory Courses for Cambridge English Exams
This year as usual the Foreign languages department is holding preparatory courses for Cambridge English exams. These courses are intended for students who would like to focus on more intensive preparation for Cambridge English exams. The lessons are based on a communicative approach and enable students to acquire the necessary exam techniques and strategies. The courses are taught by experienced teachers who are certified examiners for Cambridge English Language Assessment.„These courses seem to be very popular with our students", says Romana Vančáková, head of department for Foreign languages. “They help students to get rid of their fossilised mistakes and thus enable them to achieve the best exam results."
The lessons are held at the Jarov building once a week for a duration of 90 minutes (17:30–19:00). Students can sign up for one-semester or two-semester-long courses.
Metropolitan University Prague is an authorised Cambridge English Language Assessment testing centre accredited for Cambridge English: PET, FCE, CAE, and CPE, as well as Cambridge English: Business (BEC Preliminary, Vantage, and Higher). Course participants have an opportunity to obtain an internationally recognized English language certificate, important for a future career and also often required for studying abroad.

Delivered by Sean McCafferty and Adam Hanzel, both Marie Skłodowska-Curie GLOCTER Project PhD fellows, the sessions explored how terrorist actors exploit the digital environment and how new, harder-to-define forms of extremism are reshaping traditional security frameworks. Together, the lectures offered students a comprehensive look at both the online dynamics of contemporary terrorism and the emerging challenges posed by accelerationist and nihilistic violent extremist movements.
