USAC Czech Republic: Prague - Politics, Culture, & the Arts

Study Abroad in Prague, Czech Republic

Resting along the banks of the Vltava River, Prague has been the political, cultural, and economic hotspot of Eastern Europe for over 1000 years. With more than 1.2 million inhabitants in the city proper and a constant flow of international travelers, the Czech Republic’s bustling capital boasts global importance. Since 1992, Prague has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and for a good reason. The city is an unaltered, hands-on museum full of famous theaters and opera houses, open parks with political protest history, and centuries-old buildings converted into late-night discothèques. The galling years of communist rule linger in the minds of Czechs, and striking up a conversation on the subject brings out a history and culture lesson that could only be learned from the source itself. With our extensive offering of semester and summer study abroad programs in Prague, you will be able to find the best experience to fit your unique needs and interests.

A Guide to Studying Abroad in Prague

Subjects & Courses

There are just as many courses and subjects to study in Prague as there are medieval universities. Because of its location, not only in Europe but on the global stage, Prague is one of the best places in the world to gain an international understanding of European culture and political relations.

Not surprisingly, one of the most popular courses of study in Prague is European studies. Students can delve into the complexities of how the Czech Republic came into being and its role in modern-day Europe. Every walk through the city is like a school field trip, with sights such as the Prague Castle, the astronomical clock, or the Žižkov Tower in Josefov (the Jewish quarter). Students who choose to explore European studies will be able to study economics as well as Czech political policies, always with special attention to the role of Soviet rule. 

Two other interesting subjects that international students can study in Prague are economics and business. Economics or business minded students will particularly enjoy studying abroad in Prague because the city itself spotlights expanding knowledge of international finance from a global perspective. These courses commonly feature guest speakers and students often get to visit Czech businesses around Prague too. Some classes will even offer students the chance to intern or volunteer outside the classroom in order to get a firsthand look at how businesses function in the Czech Republic.

Then there is the ever-present choice of history classes, whether related to art, music, or even architecture. Students who study abroad in Prague will not only have a plethora of artists and musicians to examine (as an appetizer: Kafka and Mozart), the city could also very well be a living textbook of modern and historical architecture too. From the Old Town Square, across Charles Bridge, and up to St. Vitus Cathedral, students can basically take a walk through their history notes on a daily basis while studying abroad in Prague.

Excellent Program, Interesting Classes, and Memories for a Lifetime

August 29, 2025by: Addison Leonard - United StatesProgram: AIFS Abroad in Prague, Czech Republic (VŠE): Semester
10

I chose AIFS because of their unique program that allowed me to take Business classes at a university in a large city. Because I go to a small liberal arts college, I was having difficulty finding courses I was actually interested in that were in cities that I knew I wanted to live in for 3 months. After searching for weeks, I stumbled across the Central European Studies in Prague at the Prague University of Economics and Business (VŠE). I found classes that fulfilled my marketing, finance, and international relations credit without needing to beg my advisors to accept them (this is basically unheard of in my business department). I had someone answering my questions before applying, before departure, and when I got there. My program had two people that lived in Prague and they provided everything from recommendations of coffee and food (including a coffee crawl throughout Prague), buying tickets for the ballet and theater, and simply having a couch for us to crash on between classes if we needed a familiar face. I lived in a dorm in central Prague that was connected to Charles University, another partnered university. My specific dorm had 4 single rooms with a shared bathroom and kitchenette. Living in a dorm, I had access to free washers and one dryer (basically unheard of in Europe), but everyone air-dried their clothes (which I still now do in the US). Because this dorm is meant for students, they also provided clean bedding every 2 weeks. I had access to excursions with AIFS as well as Charles University where I went on day trips to Pilsen and toured the Pilsner Urquell beer factory and toured a communist camp with a seasoned tour guide. This was one of the first times I was connected with students all across the country. My university abroad attracts Czech students and students on Eramus (European students studying at different universities in Europe). While I loved most of my classes, it took me a while to get used to the style of teaching (lectures, independent study) and I didn't take part in the clubs and other things as much as I could've (but I think that is because I was really satisfied with what I was doing independently and with AIFS). Not only did I make friends from the US that I would have never met, I now have friends that are from all over the world. Because of this program, I was able to travel to places I never thought of, such as driving ATVs in Morocco to learn how to taste wine at a 30-year old family-run winery. I learned how to travel and gained confidence and excitement to continue feeding my travel bug. I’d recommend AIFS Abroad for students looking for a program that provides help and assistance without sacrificing one’s own independence and adventures.
