## Why Students in Prague Need AI Tools in 2026

Prague hosts 80,000+ university students across Charles University, Czech Technical University (CTU), University of Economics Prague (VSE), and Czech University of Life Sciences. Prague is one of Europe's top Erasmus destinations, receiving 5,000+ exchange students annually. Czech education costs remain among Europe's lowest (free for EU students at public universities), attracting students from across the continent.

Czech UOOU enforces GDPR; Czech copyright law restricts AI training data usage. The EU AI Act applies to any AI used in education. Universities including Charles and VSE issued AI use guidelines in 2025 permitting AI with disclosure and requiring critical engagement with AI outputs.
