Welcome to the University of New York in Prague, an international university in the heart of Europe. As Rector, I am proud to lead a diverse academic community committed to excellence in higher education.

With over 25 years of experience in international education, we deliver an American-style university education in Prague that prepares students for global careers. Whether you are a prospective student or an academic partner, I invite you to learn more about our mission and values.

Our Leadership Philosophy

At UNYP, education goes beyond knowledge. We focus on developing future leaders in an international academic environment. The Rector’s role is to guide the university’s academic and strategic direction while supporting students and faculty.

We are recognized for our student-centered education in Prague, offering small class sizes, experienced faculty, and programs that connect theory with real-world practice.

An International University with a Global Vision

Our students and faculty represent more than 60 countries, making UNYP one of the most multicultural universities in the region. As Rector, I am committed to creating a safe and supportive environment where students can grow academically and personally.

All programs are taught in English and accredited in both the U.S. and Europe. UNYP provides high-quality international higher education in the Czech Republic at a strong value.
