REQUEST TO CEMS ALUMNI: Would you like to share your experience with students and prepare a lecture for one of offered VSE courses?

Dear alumni,

For me being an alumnus and working on behalf of the whole CEMS community means focusing on three areas: alumni (professional and other events), students and the university.

This time I would like to focus on the third one. Mr. Ladislav Tyll, MBA, Ph.D., a new CEMS academic director at VSE, would like to continue cooperation with VSE and alumni and continue inviting alumni into CEMS VSE courses, which was also held in the past few years. It would be another great opportunity how alumni could support CEMS at their university. There are two options in the field of lecturing:

• Lecturing at some of the basic courses at the Faculty of Business Administration for bachelor degree students in order to attract more of them to apply for CEMS (subjects like Management, Business economics, Marketing, Consumer behaviour, Personnel Management or Logistics). These subjects are taught in Czech language and on rather basic level with large audience.

 Lecturing at some of the CEMS courses (subjects like International Strategy, Corporate Finance, Global Management Practice Course, International Marketing, Entrepreneurship and New Business Venturing, Accounting Information for Financial Management or Intermediate Microeconomics). 
These subjects are taught in English language and focused already on some rather specific, more advanced topics with the smaller audience of max. 50 students.

Would you be interested to share your experience with students? For you, that would mean not only preparing 45-90 minutes lecture based on discussion with the tutor, but also an opportunity to promote shortly your company, present yourself and enjoy presenting to CEMS students or to an audience of up to 300 fresh minds. It does not mean only some time spent on preparation and presentation, but also development of your skills and promotion of your company. Finally, it may be an attractive record in your CV.

If you are interested please, explore this file with the list of subjects including syllabus of each subject. For your better idea, I let the list of alumni lectures with their topics in the Winter Term 2012/2013 in the file. 

In case of interest please, fill in the table and send it back to me and a copy to Šárka Otčenášková (CEMS Communication Manager at VSE; sarka.otcenaskova@vse.cz). Please, send your e-mail by September 15, 2014 as the Winter Term starts on September 22, 2014.

I will be really glad to hearing from you - and helping the university together. Thank you for your time.

Some News for Start of 2014

Dear CEMS Alumni in Prague and Czech Republic,

Firstly we would like to wish all of you fantastic 2014. As we think about more events for 2014, we would like to bring two different kinds of news to your attention.

1. CEMS Alumni from Prague and surroundings are interested to meet families of other Alumni and so there is a voting event open to choose a date for a Children Friendly Gathering of CEMS Alumni in near future (follow up on last years successful brunch where some alumni brought their partners and babies and it was great fun.) Please vote here: http://doodle.com/mvebkarnz2tkn6hk. The organizers are Vojtěch Opleštil and Jana Maršálková.

2. In Czech only: Byla vypsána pozice Koordinátora/ky CEMS programu na VŠE, Praha.
