Primary Teacher Education

The entrance examination for individual Master’s study programs  

Primary Teacher Education (Master’s degree) - The basic condition for admission is the completion of a bachelor's degree programme in teaching and educational sciences. Graduates of the Early Childhood and Elementary Education programme, for whom this study is primarily intended, will be admitted on the basis of the weighted average of their undergraduate studies. The average will include the grades of the courses taken in the 1st and 2nd years of the Bachelor's degree and the courses taken in the winter semester of the 3rd year of the degree. A critical threshold of weighted average will be set for admission under this criterion. Graduates of other programmes in teaching and educational sciences and graduates of pre-school and elementary education with a weighted average above the critical threshold will be admitted on the basis of the results of an entrance examination which will examine their aptitude for studying teaching for primary education. Applicants from abroad must demonstrate a B2 level of the Slovak language. 

Career opportunities for the graduates

Primary Teacher Education (Master’s degree) - the graduate is ready to work independently as a primary education teacher.
