The growing popularity of the CZU Athlete of the Year poll, which the university announces every year, is also reflected in the incredible number of 55 registered athletes. All of them can boast outstanding performances, so once again the jury did not have an easy decision to make. Given his performances last year and the honour he received from the President of the Czech Republic, sprint canoeist Josef Dostál was the clear favourite. He thus repeated last year’s triumph.

The international QS World University Rankings by Subject 2026 confirms that the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU) belongs among the global leaders in fields related to nature and sustainability.
