vse logo
The University of Economics in Prague was originally founded in 1919 as the Commercial College. The course of study was lengthened to four years in 1929 as it was incorporated into the Czech Technical University. Finally in 1953, the University of Economics was declared an independent university known in the Czech Republic by the name Vysoká _kola ekonomická v Praze (VŠE), and accredited by the Ministry of Education. In the last 10 years VŠE has gone on to become a full member of both the Community of European Management Schools and the Partnership in International Management, further establishing its ' reputation in the European Union as a progressive leading university.

VŠE is currently the leading university in the field of management and economics in the Czech Republic. With six faculties including: Finance and Accounting, International Relations, Business Administration, Informatics and Statistics, Economics and Public Administration, and Management, it is one of the largest higher education institutions and presently the only university to offer students degrees at the bachelor, masters, and doctoral levels.  During the academic year, VŠE enrolls about 15,000 students (from 80 countries) who are served by more than 650 academic staff; sixty-one percent of which have doctoral degrees in their field.

VŠE is conveniently located on Winston Churchill Square (Praha 3) close to the main train station and the city center, only 20 minutes by tram from the student dorms, or a 15 minute walk from Old Town Square. Summer courses are taught in a modern classroom facility and students have access to secure Wi-Fi internet with their student ID, lunch in the cafeteria included with their meal plan, study rooms and an outdoor café.

European Study Abroad Center (ESAC)

Global Players has chosen ESAC as our academic partner in Prague because they are committed to high academic standards and offering unique internship and professional site-visit opportunities which student-athletes often miss out on due to their rigorous athletic schedules. We were also drawn to their established 10 years of experience in the industry and focus on International Business, Marketing, and Management. The program administrators have personal connections and relationships with Prague’s leading businesses and entrepreneurs, including Ernst & Young, IKEA, and Radio Free Europe. These local connections result in site-visit and internship opportunities which allow GP students’ first hand insight into foreign cultures and business operations. We are very fortunate to have joined forces with such a dynamic partner who understands and supports our Learn. Play. Travel. Serve. philosophy.
