Facilities
Prague becomes your classroom! The exceptional location and outstanding facilities help provide the best study-abroad experience.
Location
NC State is located on a small square called Malé Náměstí, right around the corner from Old Town Square. It is housed in a 15th-16th-century building known as “Ericsson Palace.” The center is equipped with all the modern facilities necessary for studying and learning.
Facilities
WiFi is available throughout the premises and students are encouraged to bring their own laptops. The building is accessible to students from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm. Storage lockers are available for enrolled students.
Common Areas
The Center is located in a tourist area and offers a peaceful, beautiful environment for studying in Prague. The ground floor features dedicated spaces for students to socialize and enjoy a lovely courtyard for relaxation. The “Great Hall” on the ground floor can accommodate up to 50 people and is designed for various functions, including special events, exhibitions, workshops, and symposiums. Overall, the ground floor is an inviting area for both social activities and relaxation.
Classrooms and Studios
All classrooms are equipped with a computer and a screen. Classrooms accommodate approximately 15-20 students each. Studios are available for up to 36 students, with up to three different studios, and are provided to each student in a relevant program. The setup is complete with large work tables, ample lighting, good chairs, pin-up boards and everything you might need.
Exceptional Facilities
They contribute to providing an unparalleled study-abroad experience.
Kitchen
The central kitchen is perfect for fixing a quick bite or inviting fellow students to join you for a group dinner. It is equipped with refrigerators, stoves, sinks, and ample cabinet space for dry goods. The students provide and maintain cooking utensils, dishes, and tableware. We believe a productive atmosphere must include space to take a break, relax, and refuel, so a large part of the kitchen also serves as a common room with seating for dining and lounging.
Resources
Computer Lab
The lab contains a combination of iMacs and PCs, large-format printers, high-quality scanners, and 3D printers.
Library
The library is on the second floor, where classrooms and studios are also located. It contains books and movies about Czech and European culture, history, arts, and more. Students can borrow materials at no cost or use the space to study and recharge.
