We are also seeing continuous growth in the CHEMISTRY study program (FPV), which is gradually growing every year, as is the PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION study program (FSV).
The most interesting finding from the data for 2025 is the significant increase in interest in studying physiotherapy at the Faculty of Health Sciences – this program has become the most sought-after at the entire UCM, even surpassing the long-popular psychology and marketing communication programs.
This shows a shift in applicants' priorities: interest is shifting strongly towards practical fields that have clear practical applications.
