  • CRC History in Brief 5.10.2018
    Czech Rectors Conference History in Brief The Czech Rectors Conference (CRC) origin roots from the Czech and Slovak University Rectors Club (RC) officially founded in Žilina, Slovakia, at the Transport and Communication University on 26 April 1990, following a meeting of five Czech rectors held at the Czech Technical University in Prague on 14 March 1990. It was established by seven members – four Czech university rectors (Tomáš Čermák, Ostrava Mining University; Stanislav Hanzl, Czech Technical University in Prague; Arnošt Hönig, Brno University of Technology; Věněk Šilhán, University of Economics in Prague) and three Slovak university rectors (Norbert Frištacký, Slovak Technical University in Bratislava; Pavol Kluvánek, Transport and Communication University in Žilina; Miroslav Kusý, Comenius University in Bratislava). The first RC President was Professor Milan Jelínek, the first rector of Masaryk University in Brno in the post-communist era. In the planning period of building the administration pool for the RC in Brno, which is on half way between Prague and Bratislava, he managed to find an active collaborator in the person of Professor Martin Černohorský – the Silesian University in Opava rector – who agreed to take responsibility for that and whose effort resulted in the RC Secretariat open in Brno Masaryk University premises on 1 March 1992. Professor Černohorský was officially in charge of the RC Secretariat operation becoming thus a member of RC leaders (Vice-President) bearing the title of Chancellor. In the next development phase two sections – RC Czech Section and RC Slovak Section – formed (26 September 1992) within the RC while the RC remained a unit. The two RC sections evolved into two Rectors Conferences – Czech Rectors Conference (CRC) and Slovak Rectors Conference (SRC).

  • The Austrian Academy of Sciences
    The Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (originally published: ALLEA Biennial Yearbook 2006; updated: December 2008) A brief history of the institution The present-day Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic in its work continues the research traditions and mission not only of the former Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences but also of its predecessors. The oldest long-lasting learned society was the Royal Czech Society of Sciences (founded in 1784) which encompassed both the humanities and the natural sciences. As early as 1861- 1863 Jan Evangelista Purkyně proposed in his treatise Academia the establishment of an autonomous non-university scientific institution associating research institutes representing the main fields of the science of that time. This idea of an institution engaged in interdisciplinary research corresponds to the concept and structure of the present Academy of Sciences. By the end of the 19th century, language-differentiated scientific institutions arose in this country: the Czech Academy of Science and the Arts in 1890 and the Association for the Fostering of German Science, Arts and Literature in Bohemia in 1891 were established. The Czech Academy of Science and the Arts was founded owing to the significant financial support from the Czech architect and builder, Josef Hlávka who became its first President. The aim of this institution was to promote the development of Czech science and literature and to support Czech arts. The most important work of this Academy was its publication activities. Scholarships and financial support were also provided and smaller research units arose upon its initiative as well. After the foundation of the independent Czechoslovak Republic in 1918 other scientific institutions were established, such as the Masaryk Academy of Labour and autonomous state institutes, such as the Slavonic, Oriental and Archaelogical Institutes.

  • Rector Office at Vigo University Campus Vigo, Spain
    Rector Office at Vigo University Campus Vigo, Spain This building is a piece of the University Campus of Vigo, a rectangle that bows on the back part to adapt itself to the form of the area, following the guidelines of the classroom buildings. The façades are composed of concrete whose texture echoes the decomposition of the Mondariz granite hung from the metal profile and oak carpentries in a T form, with the uppermost part of the granite rising over the profile of the roof. The play of concrete and oak continue into the interior, where the geometry of the stairs connect the levels and spaces which are flooded with the light from above. The building’s program includes the chancellor’s and vice-chancellor’s offices, the press office, the general secretary and other administrative personnel, and meeting rooms arranged in a radial form. Some spaces open to others and all spectacularly frame views through the structure. Natural light penetrates everything. The main hall is a ramped auditorium that is projected over the larger spaces between the tripartite structure in a T form, whose top wall is in the opposite direction of the stairs and creates an impressive form on the lateral façade.

  • Czech Republic Heart of Europe Location
    Czech Republic Heart of Europe Location • The Czech Republic is a landlocked country in Central Europe. The country is bordered by Germany to the west, Poland to the north, Austria to the south and Slovakia to the east. • Capital, with 1.3 million inhabitants, is Prague. • Population: 10 562 214 (census 2011), density 134/km2 • Currency: Czech crown, Kč (CZK) • Language: Czech (Slavic) • Area: 78 866 km2 Geography • Map with traditional regions Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia and current administrative regions • Big cities: Brno, Ostrava, Plzeň, Liberec, Olomouc, Ústí nad Labem, České Budějovice, Hradec Králové, Pardubice Nature • The Czech landscape is exceedingly varied. Bohemia, to the west, consists of a basin drained by the Elbe (Czech: Labe) and the Vltava (or Moldau) rivers, surrounded by mostly low mountains, such as the Krkonoše range of the Sudetes. The highest point in the country, Sněžka at 1,602 m, is located here. • Moravia, the eastern part of the country, is also quite hilly. It is drained mainly by the Morava River, but it also contains the source of the Oder River (Czech: Odra). Climate • The Czech Republic has a temperate continental climate, with relatively hot summers and cold, cloudy and snowy winters. The temperature difference between summer and winter is relatively high, due to the landlocked geographical position. • At the highest peak of Sněžka (1,602 m), the average temperature is only −0.4 °C, whereas in the lowlands of the South Moravian Region, the average temperature is as high as 10 °C. The country's capital, Prague, has a similar average temperature, although this is influenced by urban factors.
