Teacher's information
Teaching is realized in the form of 2 blocks after 4 classes = seminar group Spring and Summer - students for successful graduation are obliged to complete both blocks + elaboration of SP (in case of absence on any block it is a substitute for the creation of SP Spring or SP Summer - which you were missing.

The student will pay the material for the individual lessons of the course - it is worth about 500 CZK / semester (the list of necessary aids for the seminar will be sent to the teacher by e-mail at least 4 days before the individual thematic seminars). The compositions become the property of the author.

The PdF MU "Kejbaly" is located at the Brno-Bohunice University Campus, 100 Vinohrady Street.

The garden can be reached by bus line 61 (for example stop Křídlovická - next to Ronda). You have to go out at KAMENICE stop !!!

Or by bus line 40 (direction University campus - north), or line 69. Another option is to come by car, if you choose this option, check out the search engine (www.mapy.cz) to get to us. Ideal is to get off campus and park over the stairs to the garden. The garden itself is in the forbidden entrance. If you were caught by the police officers, take the student's pass and go to the faculty garden (but you may even get a fine).
