How to bring your ideas to life?

Do you have a lot of ideas in your head that would be a shame to let slip away? Where to find the courage to turn an idea into reality? Whether you want to travel, run a business, volunteer or apply to your dream school, it won’t happen without a drop of determination and the first step. Miky Škoda will be happy to share his experience of how to not only tackle these first steps, but also ensure that both you and the world around you get the best out of your ideas.

How to overcome boundaries and fulfil your potential?

Every one of us has at least one, but more likely two or more talents. But how do we recognize them and allow ourselves to fully focus on them? Let alone how to show what we’ve got to the world? We all have potential. But how do we turn it into a fulfilling life? Come to Miky Škoda's inspiring lecture on how to cross boundaries between countries and within yourself, and set out to discover yours.

What are the funding options for studying abroad?

Zero to one million Czech crowns. That’s the range for annual tuition fees at universities across Europe nowadays. Would you like to know where you can study for free? Are universities with million-dollar tuition fees really worth it? Are you wondering how to get a scholarship, a government loan or how to even get paid for studying abroad? That’s what you will learn about in this lecture.

How to choose the right destination for studying abroad?

Is Ireland or the Netherlands better? Is it true that Denmark has cancelled nearly all of the English programmes? And what about Britain, is it still possible to study there after Brexit? If you’re feeling a bit lost in the options available to you today and the amount of information about studying abroad, come to this lecture and let’s explore the key aspects to consider when choosing the right country for your university studies abroad. We promise you will leave with a clearer mind.

How to hack foreign university admissions?

Getting into great schools abroad may not be as hard as it may seem at first glance. Here are some tips and tricks to help you aim for some of the world’s top 100 universities in September 2024. Even if you don’t have the best grades and haven’t considered studying abroad before.

What are the benefits of studying abroad for my future life?

During the panel discussion you can meet interesting guests who will tell you how a stay abroad can be beneficial for your future life. We will talk about the real-life impact, guests will share their own experiences of studying and working abroad, and there will also be expert insights and time for questions.
