The handouts of Rita Manzini’s classes are now online on the class pages.

we will kick off the EGG on an opening meeting on Monday at 8:45am (in the syntax room), just before classes start. We will gather in front of the dorm at 8:15am and walk to the classroom building together.
Have a look at the timetable, where the three classrooms now have their campus ID.

change of dorm payment procedure: the dorm admin now requires for dorm payment upon arrival: you come in, show your ID to the receptionist, who will give you the bill, and then you pay either in cash in local currency CZK, or by card. Then you get the key.
There will be a Czech native from the local org team in the reception hall all through Sunday July 26th to facilitate communication with the receptionist.

Upon arrival at the dorm, go to the reception (open 24/7) and show your ID. You will get the key for your room. Payment will be done individually at the dorm office during week 1: you will be able to pay either in cash (local currency CZK) or by card.

We get some questions from students who think that after having registered and received a confirmation mail
“Thank you for registering! This email is to confirm that your spot at the EGG 2026 Summer School is officially secured.”
there is something more to do on their side, or they are waiting for some further confirmation or notification of acceptance.
There is none of that. If you got the confirmation mail above, all you need to do is to come to Brno!
Also, have a look at the Local info & travel page, containing a lot of useful & practical information (how to get to Brno, dorm payment etc.).

The dorm provides laundry facilities: washing machines and a place to dry laundry.
We couldn’t get the information yet whether the use of the washing machines is free or subject to a fee. We get back to you with that.

There is a requirement for non-EU citizens to report their place of temporary residence to the Czech Foreign Police within 3 working days of entering Czechia.
For those of you who are concerned, don’t worry, you have nothing to do since the dorm works like a hotel: it does the reporting automatically as soon as you are registered.

New pdfs for I Landau’s and M Cotfas’ classes are online on their class pages.

Check out the timetable of Brno 2026.

Check out the new information added on the Local Info & Travel page, where you find a Google map describing the way from the tram stop to the dorm (within the dorm complex, we are in Block A3).
Check-in is 24/7, i.e. around the clock: no trouble for people coming in at night.
