Jiří Duda | Tomáš Kotrba
Educated university graduates are demanded by employers. Requirements of employers on graduates are high; most required are communication skills, decision-making skills, problem solution skills. Very often demand is graduates’ willingness to further education, knowledge of foreign languages. The paper describes the opinions of students of Faculty of agronomics and Faculty of business and economics MUAF in Brno on the possibilities to deepen selected skills. Students of both faculties realize the necessity of further training. More than 96% of students consider the knowledge of foreign languages to be very important and prefer teaching grammar and conversation. Students evaluated the quality of teaching foreign languages at MZLU in Brno, too. Almost 40% of students of Faculty of agronomics and 70% of students of the Faculty of business and economics consider the teaching of foreign languages as insufficient. These negative views were probably influenced by a small extent of teaching languages during their studies. Communication skills represent another significant factor, and students evaluated the possibility to develop these skills, as well. 50% of respondents from the Faculty of agronomics evaluate these skills as necessary for practice and positively evaluate the development of these skills within teaching at MUAF in Brno. Positive evaluation of communication skills development was also found nearly in three quarters of respondents from Faculty of business and economics.
