Faculty of Humanities (FHS) History The Faculty of Humanities (FHS) is Charles University’s youngest faculty. Originally founded in the early 1990s as the Institute for Liberal Education, it was elevated to the rank of a Faculty in 2000, the vision being that it would offer study programmes at the Bachelor, Master and PhD levels in various humanities and social science disciplines not yet established at CU. The FHS quickly gained a reputation as a progressive school with innovative study programmes and teaching methods. Mission The mission of the Faculty of Humanities is through high-quality education to endow students with the ability to lead a fulfilling life in this increasingly complex and changing world. Goals to provide education in the humanities and social sciences that meets the highest international standards; to achieve excellence in research and integrate it with education; to cultivate the ability of students to learn throughout life and encourage self-responsibility and a commitment to society; to promote the mobility of the FHS’s increasingly international student body and academic staff. Science and Research The Faculty of Humanities is dedicated to excellence in various areas of academic research. The Faculty participates in international and national research projects and promotes young researchers’ academic development. Research at the Faculty of Humanities is supervised by the Department of Science and Research. The list of all research projects is available on the department’s website: fhs.cuni.cz/FHSENG367.html.

Historical Sociology The aim of the study programme of historical sociology is to cultivate research activities and the education of experts with a specialisation in the issues of long-term social processes and trends that have a significant impact on life of contemporary societies. Above all, it deals with the problems of modernisation and social change, globalisation trends and influences, integration and disintegration processes, relationship of continuity and discontinuity, religious and cultural pluralism, linking the global to the local, identification of the chances and risks of social development, analysis of conflict situations and the possibility of overcoming them. The need for understanding of all of these issues invokes the need for the development of adequate theoretical and methodological approaches, and also of the specific training of university students.

Oral History and Contemporary History The two-year Master’s study programme in Oral History and Contemporary History is intended for students interested in contemporary (European) history, in interviewing methodologies and in interpretative methods. Its main aim is to train students to conduct research through creating and analysing interviews, and developing fieldwork projects to address those historical and contemporary issues that require interdisciplinary investigation. The Master is divided into two sections, the first covers contemporary (Czech and international) history and events, the second is methodological and focuses on various interviewing techniques through which we can study contemporary history. It binds together two general approaches of studying history, the macro and micro approaches, and enables a thorough understanding of recent events in history. The Master Study Programme in Oral and Contemporary History has practical applications in academic and university research, historic preservation and legal and human rights work.

General Anthropology The postgraduate doctoral study programme at FHS CU is organised in the full-time (3 years) and correspondence form of study. The programme allows studies focused on philosophical, historical, socio-cultural and socio-linguistic anthropology and human ethology. The task of the programme in general is grasping the theoretical basics and methods of this field and mastering the methodology of academic research. The curriculum of PhD students includes: the studies are organised in two modules, whereas the first module is compulsory for all students in the programme, the second one is selected on the basis of the consultations with the supervisor; Ph.D. seminar: a compulsory language exam; the defence of the student’s dissertation. The concept of the study programme is determined by the study programme board. Head of the Anthropology Programme: doc.

Environmental Studies The objective of the doctoral programme Environmental Studies is to provide the concept of sustainable development with support in the form of scientifically conducted research. An important aspect of the program is the interdisciplinary character of the defined research domains and the synergies among them. Although it is not the main goal of the study, we assume that the research outputs could be an important source of scientifically validated information for objective, relevant and qualified decision-making on environmental aspects of the economic and social development of the Czech Republic.

Civil Sector Studies The aim of the program is to prepare highly qualified experts in civil society studies with knowledge of the relevant theoretical approaches, sound knowledge of research methodology and in-depth knowledge of the actual situation and practical problems in this area both in the Czech Republic and abroad. Alumni are able to take part in both basic and applied research in academic institutions and higher education institutions as well as become involved in the civil sector, public sphere (above all the state administration) and for-profit sector (corporate social responsibility, philanthropy and volunteering). The program is focused on sociological or socio-economic analysis of the civic sector. The study plan of a PhD student includes planned publication activities, participation at conferences and exams from obligatory and obligatory-optional courses according to the accreditation documents. Upon completing the study with a doctoral exam and the defence of a PhD thesis, the student receives a Ph.D. title. The content and framework of the study is determined by the study programme board. Head of the Civil Sector Studies Programme: doc. Ing. Marie Dohnalová, CSc.

Historical Sociology The main topics of Historical Sociology are the questions of social change, modernization and its processes, civilization analysis, the formation of states and nations, and the formation of global systems and globalization. These are observed by means of large scale comparative analysis, which includes both broad territorial areas and time intervals. The field comprises a number of specific research areas, including the question of collective mentalities, habits and social memory. Historical sociology is a varied and internally differentiated discipline, which feeds into a number of specialised research directions and also supports research at an empirical level. Head of the Historical Sociology Programme: doc. PhDr. Jiří Šubrt, CSc. (Jiri.Subrt@fhs.cuni.cz) Application form: is.cuni.cz/eng/studium/login.php?do=prihlaska Entrance exam: fhs.cuni.cz/FHSENG-314.html Tuition fee: 2,000 € / year Language of instruction: English Further information: fhs.cuni.cz/FHSENG-444.html 13 FACULTY OF HUMANITIES, CHARLES UNIVERSITY IN PRAGUE v. Applied Ethics Study of Applied Ethics is about systematic training in critical reflection on own and others attitudes, in recognition of hidden assumptions and prejudices and overlooked ethical issues. We can say in other words that it is about deepening understanding approach – and in this case it is the area of humanities in a broad sense. The aim of these studies is therefore an effort to create a space for systematic scientific work that focuses on the ethical dimension of various disciplines or professions. During the studies the adepts have to manage also the methods of scientific work and its professional presentation. Study plan for PhD. students includes: so called comparative examination: one-term course completed by an examination in the fields, which the candidate has not studied, but which are necessary for doctoral studies; compulsory part: two two-term courses completed by an examination; optional part: a choice of six one-term courses completed by an examination; other duties: an article in peer-reviewed publications, 2 reviews, 2 lectures, seminar for students, participation in two conferences.

Philosophie allemande et française Ces études doctorales de troisième cycle sont ouvertes sous la forme interne et externe. La filière « philosophie allemande et française » s’oriente sur la philosophie classique allemande (à partir de Kant), la réaction à celle-ci, puis la phénoménologie (tout particulièrement celle de Husserl) ainsi que sa réception et son développement en France, de la philosophie de la vie et de l’existence, de l’herméneutique, de l’ontologie phénoménologique, jusqu’aux modifications actuelles de la phénoménologie et aux derniers développements de la philosophie française contemporaine. Elle permet l’étude de leurs conditions historiques et de leurs influences mutuelles dans l’espace intellectuel et culturel européen. Cette filière propose ainsi une préparation exigeante et professionnelle à la recherche et au déploiement des approches philosophiques actuelles qui se sont formées en Europe centrale et en France et qui influencent fondamentalement les débats sur la scène philosophique internationale.
