Study-related information

  • Parts of the final state examination and its content
    Students must fulfil all requirements from the study plan and registered by templates in the Information System of Masaryk University. Then they are allowed to take the final state exam. The final state exam consists of two parts:
    1. Defence of the thesis, whose topic corresponds with the focus of the specialization Czech studies from the literary point of view.
    2. An oral exam consisting of parts relating to language and to literature. Questions are asked on the basis of topics available from websites of the Department of Czech Language and Department of Czech Literature. Topics of the oral part of the final state exam follow basic and profile courses of the study programme.
    The purpose of the exam is to prove students’ ability to deal with the assigned professional topics, to react in discussion and to present their arguments in a way focused on facts. Besides the knowledge of facts, knowledge of elementary and advanced methodology relating to the discipline. Within the part focused on language, the versatile survey of knowledge of present-day Czech is checked, from the viewpoints of its origin, developmental tendencies and structural qualities (from the typological viewpoint). Advanced knowledge of linguistic terminology and orientation in linguistic methodology are expected. Depending on the taken profile courses of the specialization Czech studies from the linguistic point of view, the examination board choose one question relating to a specific language phenomenon. The part of the final state exam focused on literature checks the knowledge of Czech and world scholarly approaches to literature, of substantial features of developmental stages of Czech literature in comparative and international perspectives, from methodological and interdisciplinary viewpoints, the ability to analyze texts from the sphere of fiction and the knowledge of relevant sources relating to the particular discipline.
