Studies and Internships Abroad

FAMU students can once again participate in the 75th Berlin International Film Festival, which will take place on February 13-23, 2025.

Festival condition: students can only be accredited at the Berlinale through their university once during their study (if you have previously attended the Berline through a school call, this offer does not apply to you).

18 selected students will have the opportunity to obtain:

  • the total support will be 3.000,- CZK in the form of a scholarship, that includes:
    • code for receiving student accreditation for 95,- Euro – the price of accreditation will be paid retrospectively by the faculty in the form of a scholarship;
    • a one-off financial contribution for transport – again, paid retrospectively by the faculty in the form of a scholarship.

Students applying for support to participate in the Berlinale must meet the following conditions:

  • students enrolled in any accredited program (i.e. students with paused study cannot apply);
  • none of the study subjects (compulsory, compulsory optional, optional subjects and modules) enrolled in the previous year was evaluated with a classification grade worse than "B" or "credited";
  • passed all exams properly, i.e. none of the exams were passed in the remedial period (credits do not have remedial deadlines, all must be evaluated in the regular exam period).

How to apply:

  • Fill out the application in this online form – available here – by October 31, 2024 (incl.), accessible from your school email.
  • Upload the approval of the department head (a screenshot of a confirming email, etc.) as an attachment to the form.
  • Results will be announced on the faculty´s website by November 15, 2024.
  • Selected students will also be informed via email.
  • The code for the student accreditation must be used by December 31, 2024 (this year will be confirmed by festival). After this date, it is invalid without the possibility of renewal.
  • The selection will be based on the order of applicants who meet the above criteria.
