The Department of Geoinformatics boasts extensive experience in educating international students. Every semester, Palacký University warmly welcomes hundreds of foreign exchange students, many of whom pursue studies within our department.

At the Department of Geoinformatics (KGI), we offer approximately 10 courses each semester tailored for ERASMUS+ students, all delivered in English. Depending on enrollment numbers, some courses adopt an individualized teaching approach. Additionally, students have the opportunity to enroll in courses offered by other departments within the faculty, such as the Department of Development and Environmental Studies (MRS), the Department of Geography (KGG), and the Department of Geology (KGE).
