The minor offered by the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures provides all students at National Chengchi University (NCCU) the opportunity to study the Czech language. Enrollment in Czech courses varies each semester, largely due to students' participation in exchange programs abroad, particularly in the Czech Republic, Poland, and Russia. Currently, there are over 30 students enrolled in the program.
