Faculty Ball will make the whole Brno dance

Dear students,

Have you ever wondered what a successful scientific career might look like? In a new audio interview, Tomáš Glomb from the Centre for the Digital Research on Religion at the Faculty of Arts MU talks about his. However, suppose you would take a break from science and school duties instead. In that case, you might appreciate the article about the Faculty Association Pedagogika Brno or the invitation to this year's representative ball of the Faculty of Arts of Masaryk University.

Pleasant reading wishes

Patrik Švec
Office for External Relations Faculty of Arts MU
