63-41M/01 Economy and Business
School Educational Program: Economy and Business in Sport
Within this curriculum, we focus to the greatest extent possible on the field of sports economics and entrepreneurship in the sports industry. This specialization is made possible primarily through the offering and selection of elective subjects and extracurricular activities. Thanks to the careful organization of the teaching process, which maintains the required standards set by the national and school curricula for this field, students are also thoroughly prepared for the state final exam (maturita).
“Sports” specialization within the field of Economics and Business is particularly suited for active athletes, including those engaged in competitive and professional sports. The teaching is adapted to accommodate the rhythm of sports training. Graduates of this program with a sports focus benefit from the resources and support of PRIGO High School, while also having their practical needs for sports preparation taken into account.
After completing secondary school, graduates interested in pursuing a career in the sports industry can continue to study at the tertiary level in the field of General Legal Activities at PRIGO’s partner PRIGO College Ostrava (click here). This pathway equips students with the necessary prerequisites during secondary school and expands their knowledge, particularly in legal matters, including sports law. Graduates will earn the title DiS. (specialist diploma).
The curriculum and the school educational program can be downloaded here (available in the Czech language only).
We also offer the opportunity to continue studies at our university in the new Economics and Management program.
Admission Requirements for the 2025/2026 Academic Year, 1st round
For all parts of the entrance examination, applicants can achieve a maximum of 166 points. For the unified (state) part of the entrance examination, a maximum of 100 points can be achieved, while the school-specific part of the entrance examination allows for a maximum of 66 points.
Applicants participating in the first round of the entrance examination will be ranked based on their results. Admission will be offered to those applicants whose ranking falls between 1st place and the position corresponding to the last place within the capacity allocated for the first round of the admissions process for the specific field of study.
The ranking of applicants will be determined based on the total score from the unified entrance examination and the school-specific entrance examination. In the case of a tie in the total score, the final ranking will be determined progressively as follows:
- The average grade as per criterion (1).
- Then by criterion (2).
- Finally, criterion (3) is outlined in the “criteria for recognition of the school-specific entrance examination.”
If the tie persists, the following factors will be considered in order:
4. The score from the Czech language section of the unified entrance examination.
5. The score from the Mathematics section of the unified entrance examination.
6. The average grade in the Czech language from the last two issued school reports.
7. The average grade in Mathematics from the last two issued school reports.
Entrance examination
The entrance examination is composed of the evaluation of the following parts:
1) result of the state entrance examination (a maximum of 100 points),
2) result of the school entrance examination (max. 66 points).
The joint (state) entrance examination consists of two didactic tests a) Czech language and literature (a sample here) and b) Mathematics (a sample here). Applicants receive a maximum of 50 points for the individual didactic tests. The highest possible number of points for the state examination is therefore 100 points if the applicant responds correctly to all the questions in both tests. The school entrance examination consists of the General Educational Prerequisites (a sample here). Depending on the test result, applicants can obtain up to 66 points. The information on the preparatory course for the school entrance examination can be found here.
Recognition of the school entrance examination
An applicant may be exempt from attending the entrance examination, receiving a maximum of 66 points without the need to pass the test of general studies requirements, if at least one of the following criteria is met. If there is a request for the recognition of the school part of the entrance examination according to the following points 4 to 8, enclosing a statutory declaration with attachments is a necessary condition (to download from here). The statutory declaration is an integral part of the application.
