The Faculty of Science is a scientific and educational institution which carries out the research in Biological, Physical, Chemical and IT Sciences and educates students on the basis of their scientific work, together with their teachers. The faculty offers more than 580 courses (lectures, seminars, laboratory courses, field courses) with usual extent of two to four hours per week and the duration of one 15-week term.
The Faculty was established by a group of scientists from the institutes of the Academy of Science of the Czech Republic. Their decision to build an educational institution at the university level resulted in a Faculty of Biological Sciences. The members of the Faculty are mostly working at the same time in the Institutes of the Academy of Sciences. It allows the Faculty to offer the above mentioned number of courses each of them delivered by a specialist. Students gain an access to a range of laboratories and devices the faculty could hardly offer. They also from the very beginning become used to work among and to communicate with researchers in their own environment. Thus, the Faculty is rather an institution interconnecting the scientific institutes with the university education and bringing students into these institutions. 1.8.2007, the Faculty of Biological Sciences became the Faculty of Science. The specialized study programs, which were focused almost exclusively on biology, have been expanded to include chemical, physical and mathematical study programs. Also, courses in the offered study programs are included in the training program for future teachers.
