Jiří Palacký received his letter of appointment from the
Rector of BUT in accordance with the Higher Education Act. He succeeded doc.
Ing. arch. Radek Suchánek, Ph.D., as head of the faculty.
Upon taking up his post, he thanked the faculty’s previous
leadership for their many years of service, in particular Dean Radek Suchánek
and Vice-Deans Radek Toman, Jan Kratochvíl and Jan Malý Blažek.
“I appreciate what they have done for the faculty, and their
contribution remains evident even after the end of their terms of office,” said
Jiří Palacký. He also emphasised that the faculty’s operations are continuing
smoothly and that the handover of individual responsibilities is taking place
in the usual manner in cooperation with the outgoing vice-deans.
The new Dean also submitted a proposal to the Academic
