Teacher's information
Teaching is realized in the form of 2 blocks after 4 lessons = students will write to the seminar group Autumn and to the seminar group Winter - according to the date they will be comfortable with. The student will pay for some of the necessary material for the teaching blocks - it is necessary to count on approx. 500-1000 CZK/semester. Compositions become the property of the author. The PdF MU Garden "Kejbaly" is located at the University Campus Brno-Bohunice, street Vinohrady 506/100.

The garden can be reached by bus line 61 (eg stop Křídlovická - next to Ronda). You have to get off at KAMENICE !!!

Another option is to come by car, if you choose this option, look in the search engine (www.mapy.cz), how to get to us. It is ideal to come from the campus and park above the staircase to the garden. The garden itself is in the entrance ban. If you are caught by officers, brand your student card and go to the faculty garden (but you may still get a fine).
