Quiz Night Once Again
4. 4. 2018 Author: Romana Vančáková On Wednesday 28th March 2018, the Department of Foreign Languages in cooperation with the Foreign Department revived our the fame of Quiz Night. Last time we organised the Quiz Night for MUP‘s 15-year anniversary, while this time the event was aimed at our visiting Erasmus students.Klub cestovatelů proved a pleasant venue last time so we returned again and quite rightly. The place has been renovated so it served our purpose even better, the staff were attentive and helpful, and the food was once again delicious.
About 35 students got involved very quickly and enjoyed themselves immensely. They pitted their wits and strength against each other in eight teams of four. Even most of the Foreign Department staff were competing with vigor and excitement. Not only did those taking part in the quiz have a great time, but so too did the Foreign Language teachers responsible for running the quiz.
Here are some comments from the students who joined the Quiz Night:
"Thank you for this great evening. You are awesome :) I had a lot of fun, I learned many things, I met new people and the food was delicious!!"
Chiara Bolzon, Argentina
“I would like to say thank you about Quiz Night! It was amazing time. :) For me, the best experience was that I first met a girl from Uzbekistan and Sri Lanka. We were in one team and we cooperated to win! :)“
Filip Urbaniak, Poland

Metropolitan University Prague's Fleet Cruised the Waters of the Vltava
How should a university celebrate its twenty-fifth anniversary? What better way to mark the occasion than with a fleet of MUP steamboats cruising along the Vltava, offering panoramic views of Old Prague, Charles Bridge, Vyšehrad and other landmarks? That would certainly be something special. And that is exactly what happened!
Digital Extremism and Emerging Threats: Insights from Expert Lectures at MUP
5. 5. 2026 Author: Oldřich Bureš
In April 2026, the Center for Security Studies and the Department of International Relations and European Studies at Metropolitan University Prague hosted thought-provoking lectures examining the evolving landscape of violent extremism. 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.
