Christmas party

We would like to invite you, your partners and other sympathizers of mathematical modelling to traditional Christmas party of Mathematical Modelling at MFF. The event we be held on Tuesday 15th of December in K1 (Sokolovska 83, Prague 8) at 18:00.

The traditional mulled wine and other beverages will be served. Carols will be sung by Heisenbergsche Wahrscheinlichkeit-Gruppe whose composition is strongly dependent on the present audience. Hence, do not hesitate to bring your own music instrument/voice to join.

Enter fee:
Students of MFF 50 Kč.
Doctorates and sympathizers 100 Kč.
Pedagogues and Sebastian 150 Kč.

Neoficiální zahájení semestru

Zveme všechny příznivce matematického modelování a obzvláště studenty a studentky prvního ročníku NMgr. studia na neformální setkání u příležitosti zahájení výuky v zimním semestru. Setkání proběhne v pondělí 26. října od 18:00 v restauraci Lokál-Hamburk v Karlíně.
