Metropolitan University Prague, o.p.s. is a public benefit corporation founded in 2001 that ranks among the private universities with the longest tradition in the Czech Republic. The institution receives substantial attention from university applicants. Recently, our university has been accepting approximately 1000 new students every year, the total number of students in the 2007/2008 academic year being 4000. The MUP offers its study programmes not only in Prague but also in the regional branches in Plzeň, Liberec and Hradec Králové. \\Study Programmes \Our students can chose from seven Bachelors, five Masters study programmes and starting from this academic year also one Doctoral study programme, since we have been granted the right to perform doctoral studies by the Accreditation Committee of the Czech government. MUP has thus become a university for both the Czech Republic and the European Union being the only one in the Czech Republic that offers a complete tertiary education at the Bachelors, Masters and Doctoral level in the specialisation of International Relations and European Studies both in Czech and English.Every year from January to September MUP organizes Open Door Days.
