University of the Third Age
Mendel University has been offering educational programmes for seniors since 2003. Today, the University of the Third Age (U3A) at MENDELU operates five branches across Moravia. Interest among older adults continues to grow – not only due to the joy of discovering the world of science, but also because of the opportunity to meet others and build new friendships. It’s never too late to study, because education is one of the greatest values – for both people and the planet.

Centre for sports activites
An active lifestyle brings many benefits. It helps you stay in shape, organise your time more effectively, meet new people, and take better control of your health. That’s why the CSA at Mendel University offers a range of sports activities for students, staff, and the public. As part of bachelor’s degree programmes, students are entitled to three free sports per study cycle. Master’s students are entitled to two free sports. Employees pay CZK 800, and members of the public pay CZK 1,000, for 12 instructional hours.

Couselling and Career Centre
At MENDELU, we offer a wide network of counselling services. In addition to career counselling, students can benefit from academic and psychological counselling to help them better prepare for the future. Academic counselling focuses on planning educational paths and supports students in finding suitable schools or degree programmes that match their goals. Psychological counselling helps individuals manage stress, anxiety, and other emotional challenges that may affect their ability to plan for the future.

Internationalisation
In today’s globalised world, crossing borders has never been easier. Gaining inspiration and experience from abroad is crucial to our educational approach. We are keen to learn what sustainability measures are being adopted elsewhere – and that’s why we actively foster international collaboration.

They have access to cutting-edge technologies and research facilities, enabling them to address sustainability issues and contribute fresh ideas and innovations.
