Professor Milena Králíčková, the first woman to hold the position of rector in Charles University’s centuries-long history, recently returned from a working visit to the United States aimed at strengthening existing academic partnerships and exploring new collaborations. I met with Mrs. Králíčková at the Carolinum, the historic seat of Charles University, to discuss the US mission, but we also spoke about the significance of being the first female rector, her goals for advancing equality, and how the university has dealt with the tragic shooting at the Faculty of Arts last December.

You’ve recently returned from a working trip to the US aimed at deepening cooperation with prestigious universities.
