What Sting University College Offers: Study Options, Work Experience and Scholarships

Sting offers Bachelor’s degree programmes in both full-time and part-time formats, with direct links to paid work experience through the “100% Scholarship = 100% Career” programme. Full-time students can receive a merit-based scholarship of up to CZK 24,950 per academic year, as well as enhanced support through the PREMIUM programme.

When choosing a private university, tuition fees should not be the only factor you consider. The quality of teaching, links to industry, partner companies, study format, student support and available funding options should also play an important role.

Sting represents one possible approach: it combines academic study with professional experience and offers full-time students several types of scholarships and financial support. Find out why studying at Sting could be the right choice for you.

What to ask when choosing a private university

Before submitting your application, find out:

• How is teaching connected to real-world practice?
• Who teaches at the university and do industry professionals contribute to teaching?
• What study options are available for full-time and part-time students?
• How does the university support students who work while studying?
• What types of scholarships or other funding options are available?
• Which companies and institutions does the university collaborate with?
• How does the admissions process work and what are the requirements during the course of study?
• What positions and industries do graduates enter after completing their studies?

It is also important to check exactly what is included in tuition fees and which services or support programmes may require additional payment. Sting students can, for example, extend their support during their studies through the PREMIUM Care programme.

Full-time and part-time study

Sting currently offers Bachelor’s degree programmes in both full-time and part-time formats. Part-time study, sometimes still referred to as distance learning, is particularly suitable for applicants who need to combine their education with work or family commitments.

Teaching takes place during 6 to 8 weekend sessions per semester in Brno or Prague, and most study materials are available online.

More details can be found on the page dedicated to part-time study at Sting.

How to receive a scholarship or financial support while studying at Sting

Students on full-time Bachelor’s programmes who achieve excellent academic results can receive a merit-based scholarship of up to CZK 24,950 per academic year at Sting. The specific amount depends on academic performance and the university’s current conditions.

Full-time students with permanent residence outside Brno-city may also apply for a housing scholarship if they meet the required conditions. The university may also provide targeted or exceptional scholarships, for example for outstanding achievements, activities or individual student circumstances.

The current overview of available scholarships and conditions can be found on Sting University College’s scholarship page.

Paid work experience as a way to support your studies financially

Sting also offers a programme known as “100% Scholarship = 100% Career”. Students can apply for paid internships and, after successfully completing the selection process, gain paid work experience throughout their three-year Bachelor’s studies.

Through the internship, students build professional experience and valuable contacts while studying. The income from their placement can also help cover some of the costs associated with their studies.

Links with companies are important not only because of financial support. Practical experience allows students to apply their knowledge to real accounting, tax and finance cases and makes the transition from university to employment easier.

Frequently asked questions

How can I recognise a high-quality private university?
