WhO we are
We are the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague. We are the fourth faculty of the CTU with deep focus on natural sciences and engineering.
- A faculty founded in 1955 as part of the Czechoslovak nuclear program.
- A faculty that focuses on the studies of natural sciences and their technological applications.
- A faculty that is most research focused out of all faculties of CTU.
- A faculty that connects the deepest understanding of mathematics, physics, chemistry and informatics with engineering applications for industry.
- A faculty, where student is not just a nameless number but gets a personal approach and is involved in active research in scientific teams.
- A faculty, where students learn to to navigate interdisciplinary topics throughout the whole spectra of natural sciences, where students work in international teams, where students publish their results in prestigeous journals, where students build world-class experiments.
- A faculty, whose alumni rapidly navigate in any topic a have enough knowledge to deal with any type of problem.
our highlights
World-class research
- we place strong emphasis on excellent research and the development of new technologies

- we organise social and networking events where students can meet not only with their peers, but also lecturers and researchers
- at FNSPE, we have a tutor system in place, with tutors offering free support to fellow students who encounter difficulties in their studies
Foreign internships and international cooperation
- science and research at the faculty are conducted at world-class level and all teams cooperate with international partners
- most students take part not only in foreign internships, but many publish and present at international conferences already during their studies
- you’ll visit cutting-edge institutes like CERN, ITER or BNL
Easy change of focus
- during the first two years of your studies, you can easily change your programme - which students like to take advantage of
- most of our study programmes are interdisciplinary; so, everyone can find a programme to their liking
- studies at the faculty aren’t limited only to mathematics, physics, chemistry and informatics
We don't forget our history
- Did you know that our faculty first took shape at Charles University—and under a different name Faculty of Technical and Nuclear Physics?
- In 1959, following a government decision, the faculty became part of CTU and soon adopted its current name.
