Library services
The Central Library has existed since 1899 when a library was established at the Czech Technical University in Brno (a predecessor of Brno University of Technology). Until 1911, it was situated in Jaselská Street, then moving to Veveří 95 (today's campus of BUT Faculty of Civil Engineering). At that time, its collections included 12,373 volumes
Medical services
PharmaciesMost of the medicines available elsewhere can be obtained here, though not necessarily in every pharmacy. In case of need of some kind of medicine in the evening, at night or over the weekend, when shops are normally closed, there is a non-stop pharmacy located conveniently in the centre of the city, Koliště 47.
Campus life
The main center of students life: no one calls it other than „Palačák“. Here you can find four faculties, refectories, cafes, students club, sports grounds... and also the largest dormitories. So put your slippers on and hurry to the lecture.
Sports facilities
All students of BUT can sign in to two sports lessons per week for free. And there is plenty to choose from: athletic stadium with olympic parameters, modern gyms, tennis courts, climbing wall, fitness – and even our own shipyard at the Svratka river.
Student clubs
The Student Chamber represents students of all BUT faculties being part of the BUT Academic Senate, which is the supreme academic representative body according to the University Act.
Local branches of international organizations:
- Erasmus Student Network (ESN) – International Student Club (ISC) BUT
- Board of European Students of Technology (BEST) Brno
- International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience (AESTE) Brno
