Academy of Performing Arts in Prague

The Academy of Performing Arts in Prague (AMU) is a leading educational art institution in Central Europe.

 

The university is divided into three independent faculties, each specialised in its own artistic endeavour: theatre (DAMU), film and TV (FAMU) and music and dance (HAMU). Each faculty offers accredited study programmes in English as well as short-term individual internships, exchange programmes, specialized courses and opportunities to study abroad.

Students seek to refine their specific abilities under the tutelage of active professionals of Europe’s cultural and intellectual scene, top ranking filmmakers, theatre dramaturges and stage performers, musical virtuosos and master dancers with the emphasis on a uniquely individual approach. The highest standards of artistic education are reflected in the frequent prestigious awards achieved at domestic and international festivals and events.

All three faculties are located in the heart of Prague’s historical centre. Prague is home to a number of famous cultural attractions with great connection with the rest of Europe. In addition to this, the capital of the Czech Republic is one of the best student destinations and has also been ranked high on the list of 100 safest cities in the world!
