History

• Gregor Johann Mendel was born on 20 July 1822 in Hynčice in Austrian Silesia, entered the Augustinian Abbey of Saint Thomas in Old Brno in 1843 and studied physics and botany at the University of Vienna from 1851 to 1853.格雷戈尔·孟德尔 1822 年 7 月 20 日生于奥地利西里西亚的欣日采，1843 年进入布尔诺老城圣托马斯奥斯定会修道院，1851 至 1853 年在维也纳大学修习物理学与植物学。

• Between 1856 and 1863 Mendel raised and counted hybrid peas in the abbey garden that lay below the site where the university now stands, a plot of roughly 2.4 hectares whose greenhouse foundations measure eight by three metres.1856 至 1863 年间，孟德尔在修道院菜园培育并计数杂交豌豆，那片约 2.4 公顷的园子就在今天校址下方，其温室砖石地基长 8 米、宽 3 米。

• Mendel reported the two laws of heredity to the Brno Natural History Society in 1865, and the essay Versuche über Pflanzen-Hybriden was published in 1866, the date usually given for the foundation of genetics as a science.孟德尔于 1865 年向布尔诺自然历史学会报告两条遗传定律，论文《植物杂交试验》在 1866 年刊出，学界通常把这一年视为遗传学作为一门科学的起点。

• In 1900 Hugo de Vries, Carl Correns and Erich von Tschermak independently rediscovered those ratios, and the Brno abbot was posthumously installed as the founder of modern genetics whom the university later chose as its patron.1900 年，雨果·德弗里斯、卡尔·科伦斯与埃里希·冯·切尔马克各自独立重发现这些比例，这位布尔诺院长被追认为现代遗传学奠基人，也就是后来这所大学选定的冠名者。

• Abbot Cyrill Napp had already tried to make his convent a centre of scientific work and paid for the greenhouse that extended the monks' outdoor laboratory, the institutional model that a technical agricultural college would copy in 1919.院长西里尔·纳普早已试图把修院办成科学工作中心，出资修建温室以延伸修士们的户外实验室，这一办学模式正是 1919 年新建公立农学院所仿效的对象。

• Mendel was elected abbot of the Old Brno house in 1868, kept an apiary on the hill above the convent where he studied bee breeding through the 1870s, and died in Brno on 6 January 1884.孟德尔 1868 年当选布尔诺老城修院院长，在修院后山设蜂房研究蜜蜂繁育直至 1870 年代，1884 年 1 月 6 日在布尔诺逝世。

• The abbey and its garden passed to state administration after 1945 and are now run by Masaryk University, which operates the Mendel Museum in the east wing with manuscripts, notebooks and photographs of the 1856 to 1863 experiments.修道院与园子在 1945 年后归国家管理，现由马萨里克大学运营，东翼的孟德尔博物馆收藏 1856 至 1863 年实验的手稿、记录簿与照片。

• Brno, called Brünn while it belonged to the Habsburg monarchy and the historic capital of the Margraviate of Moravia, was a textile and engineering city when the Czechoslovak republic was proclaimed on 28 October 1918.布尔诺在哈布斯堡君主国时期称 Brünn，是摩拉维亚边区历史首府，也是 1918 年 10 月 28 日捷克斯洛伐克共和国宣告成立时的纺织与工程工业城市。

• Building higher education in Czech was the republic's first cultural task, and the founding act of 24 July 1919 created a state college of agriculture in Brno, still the oldest agricultural school in Czechoslovakia by its own historiography.以捷克语建设高等教育是共和国的首要文化任务，1919 年 7 月 24 日的创立令在布尔诺设立公立农学院，按校方校史它仍是捷克斯洛伐克最古老的农学院。

• The new institution was constituted on the basis of the former Tábor Academy, the Czech agricultural school whose staff, teaching collections and curriculum supplied the starting point of the Brno college.新学院以前塔博尔学院为基础组建，那所捷克农业学校的师资、教学藏品与课程构成了布尔诺学院的起点。

• Under the name University of Agriculture in Brno the school operated from 1919 to 1994, and its earliest teaching programmes in forestry and economics are still visible in the two faculties that carry those subjects today.以布尔诺农业大学之名义办学的 1919 至 1994 年间，最早的教学项目为林业与经济，这两门学科至今仍由两个同名学院承担。

• Its first three decades trained Czech-speaking agronomists, foresters and estate managers for Moravian and Slovak estates, and the disciplines of crop production, animal husbandry and soil science named in that curriculum survive as department titles.创校后前三十年为摩拉维亚与斯洛伐克庄园培养捷克语农艺师、林业人才与庄园管理者，当年课表上的作物生产、畜牧与土壤学科至今仍是系的名称。

• On 1 January 1993 the Czech Republic succeeded to the legal personality of the federal universities, and MENDELU has since run on state-funded posts, Czech-language daytime study without tuition and a statute of its own.1993 年 1 月 1 日捷克共和国承接联邦高校的法律主体地位，该校此后沿用国家拨款教席、捷克语全日制免学费与自制章程的口径。

• In 1994, the 75th anniversary year of the foundation, the college took the name Mendel University of Agriculture and Forestry in Brno, in Czech Mendelova zemědělská a lesnická univerzita v Brně with the abbreviation MZLU.1994 年，即创校 75 周年，学校改名布尔诺孟德尔农林大学，捷克语作（Mendelova zemědělská a lesnická univerzita v Brně），缩写 MZLU。

• The Czech Higher Education Act of 1998 gave public universities legal autonomy, government by an elected academic senate and the sole right to confer doctoral degrees, and MENDELU has elected its rectors in four-year cycles ever since.捷克 1998 年《高等教育法》赋予公立大学法人自治、民选学术参议院治理与独立授予博士学位的权利，该校自此按四年一轮的周期选举校长。

• In 2010 the university shortened its legal name again to Mendel University in Brno, in Czech Mendelova univerzita v Brně, the form that its English-language promotion and the QS profile still use.2010 年学校再次简化法定名称为布尔诺孟德尔大学，捷克语作（Mendelova univerzita v Brně），这也是其英文宣传与 QS 档案沿用的写法。

• CEITEC MENDELU was established in 2011, bringing the university into the Central European Institute of Technology, a research infrastructure led by Masaryk University whose academic partners include the Brno University of Technology.2011 年设立 CEITEC MENDELU，使学校并入中欧理工学院这一科研基础设施，该平台由马萨里克大学牵头，学术伙伴包括布尔诺理工大学。

• The Faculty of Horticulture works from Lednice in southern Moravia inside the Lednice–Valtice Cultural Landscape that UNESCO inscribed in 1996, so its greenhouses, orchards and vineyards sit within a World Heritage site.园艺学院在南摩拉维亚的莱德尼采办学，地处联合国教科文组织 1996 年列入名录的莱德尼采—瓦尔季采文化景观，其温室、果园与葡萄园都在世界遗产地之内。

• In June 2020 the QS World University Rankings listed the university among the world's top 1,000 for the first time at 701-750 in the 2021 edition, and the 2022 edition placed it in the 801-1000 band.2020 年 6 月，QS 世界大学排名首次把该校列入全球前 1000，2021 年版列 701-750 档，2022 年版列 801-1000 档。

• The Faculty of AgriSciences took up a doctoral excellence project co-financed by the European Social Fund and the Czech state budget, coordinated by professor Břetislav Brzobohatý, which ran meetings on functional genomics and proteomics and a Frontiers of Biotechnology lecture series.农业科学学院承接由欧洲社会基金与捷克国家预算共同资助的博士卓越项目，由教授 Břetislav Brzobohatý 统筹，举办功能基因组学与蛋白质组学会议及生物技术前沿系列讲座。

• Cooperation with East Asian universities is documented in the 2018 visit of a MENDELU delegation to Zhejiang University and in the summer study programme that Weifang University ran together with the university in 2019.与东亚高校的合作可见于 2018 年该校代表团访问浙江大学，以及 2019 年潍坊学院与该校合办的暑期学习项目。

• Recognition by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic is the legal basis of its degree validity, and in the 2020s the university repackaged itself as a life-science and landscape institution with paid English programmes in regional and territorial studies.捷克青年、教育与体育部的认可是其学位效力的法源，2020 年代学校把自身重新包装为生命科学与景观类机构，开设收费英语的区域研究与领土研究项目。

• Breeding and plant genetics remain the institutional signature, since the Mendeleum institute carries the eponym of the founder of genetics and the Faculty of AgriSciences maintains departments of Crop Science Plant Breeding and of Breeding and Propagation of Horticultural Plants.育种与植物遗传仍是该校招牌，门德尔姆研究所以遗传学奠基人之名为名，农学院保有作物科学育种系与园艺植物育种繁殖系。

• Technical capacity sits inside an agricultural curriculum in departments of Agriculture Food and Environmental Engineering, Engineering and Automobile Transport and Post-harvest Technology of Horticultural Products, while apiculture and viniculture supply niches that other Czech faculties do not teach.工科能力内嵌于农业课程之中，设有农业食品与环境工程系、工程与汽车运输系、园艺产品采后技术系，养蜂与葡萄酒学则提供其他捷克学院不授的小众方向。

• CEITEC MENDELU, created in 2011, links university laboratories to the instruments and doctoral training of an infrastructure shared with Masaryk University and the Brno University of Technology, the main route by which the college entered frontier biology.2011 年设立的 CEITEC MENDELU 把本校实验室接入与马萨里克大学、布尔诺理工大学共建平台的仪器与博士训练，是该农学院进入前沿生物学的主渠道。

• A University Information System covers personal administration, admission procedures, school and study information, research data including library projects and publications and a staff portal, the digital spine Czech law expects every public faculty to expose.大学信息系统涵盖人事管理、入学程序、校务与学习信息、含图书馆项目与出版物的科研数据以及教职工门户，是捷克法律要求每所公立学院公开的数字化骨架。

• QS treats the teaching body as 1,200 full-time-equivalent staff against 8,397 students, while university-wide statistics published in its own profile give 9,665 students and 595 administrative staff, figures that differ by counting rule rather than by size.QS 口径为 1,200 名全职折合教学人员对应 8,397 名学生，而校方简介统计给出 9,665 名学生与 595 名行政人员，两数之差源于计数口径而非实际规模。

Campus

• The seat is at Zemědělská 1 in Brno-Židenice, a district whose university strip also holds the Brno University of Technology, and the coordinates recorded for the campus are 49.195 north and 16.608 east.校本部在布尔诺日德尼采区泽美德拉斯卡街 1 号，这片大学带同时坐落着布尔诺理工大学，所记校园坐标为北纬 49.195 度、东经 16.608 度。

Reputation

• In the QS World University Rankings 2027 Mendel University in Brno is placed in the 951-1000 band, a lower position than the 851-900 band the same table gave it for 2026.在 2027 年 QS 世界大学排名中，布尔诺孟德尔大学位列第 951-1000 位区间，低于同一榜单 2026 年版给出的 851-900 档。

• The QS institutional profile rates its research output Very High on papers per unit of staff, records 8,397 full-time-equivalent students with 1,200 teachers and 1,437 international students, and marks the institution as public.QS 院校档案按人均论文量把其研究产出评为极高，记全日制折合学生 8,397 人、教师 1,200 人、国际学生 1,437 人，并将办学性质标为公立。

• In the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2027 the university stands in the 1201-1400 band, below its QS placing because THE weights teaching reputation, citations and international outlook on a different scale.在 2027 年泰晤士高等教育世界大学排名中，该校位于 1201-1400 档，低于 QS 名次，因泰晤士对教学声誉、引用与国际视野的权重口径不同。

• Subject tables are where the institution outperforms its overall placing, the QS Agriculture and Forestry ranking listing Mendel University in Brno at 220 in the 2023 edition, the field in which it has taught continuously since 1919.学科榜是该校优于综合排名的维度，2023 年 QS 农业与林业学科榜把布尔诺孟德尔大学列在第 220 位，而这正是它自 1919 年连续任教的领域。

• Regionally, the QS Emerging Europe and Central Asia ranking placed the university at 74 in 2022, in front of several larger public institutions measured on the criteria of that table.区域榜上，2022 年 QS 新兴欧洲与中亚排名把该校列在第 74 位，按该榜口径排在若干规模更大的公立院校之前。

• Mendel University in Brno is not listed in the 2026-2027 edition of the US News Best Global Universities Rankings, and the Academic Ranking of World Universities 2026 by ARWU does not include it either, so its international visibility rests on QS and THE.该校未进入 2026-2027 年度 US News 全球最佳大学排名，2026 年软科世界大学学术排名亦未收录，其国际能见度因此主要建立在 QS 与泰晤士两榜之上。

• Bibliometric databases attribute 16,314 works and 585,757 citations to the institution, an average of roughly 36 citations per work, the accumulated output of a century of plant breeding, soil, forestry and food research published from Brno.文献计量数据库归给该校学术作品 16,314 篇、被引 585,757 次，折合每篇约被引 36 次，这是一个世纪以来在布尔诺发表的植物育种、土壤、林业与食品研究的累积产出。

• No Nobel Prize, Turing Award or Fields Medal laureate is counted among the staff or alumni of the university, and the honours it genuinely holds are national ones, its status as the oldest Czech agricultural college and its 1994 right to bear the Mendel name.该校教师与校友中没有诺贝尔奖、图灵奖或菲尔兹奖得主，其真正拥有的荣誉属国家层面，即捷克最古老农学院的地位与 1994 年承用孟德尔之名的权利。

• Ranking bands for institutions of this size overlap heavily and secondary mirrors disagree, so on any contested case the official lists published by QS, Times Higher Education and ARWU are decisive.同规模大学的名次区间高度重叠，二手镜像彼此不一，因此凡有争议均以 QS、泰晤士高等教育与软科官方发布的榜单为准。

Student life

• Daytime study in Czech carries no tuition under the Higher Education Act of 1998, while the English-taught programmes of the Faculty of Regional Development and International Studies are paid, a distinction that shapes the student body of the whole university.依 1998 年《高等教育法》，捷克语全日制学习不缴学费，而区域发展与国际研究学院的英语项目收费，这一区别塑造了全校的学生构成。

• Institute of Lifelong Education organises accredited retraining and further-education courses, allowing working foresters, agronomists and tourism staff to return to the Brno campus for qualified study without entering a full degree programme.终身教育学院承办获准的转岗培训与进修课程，使在职林业人员、农艺师与旅游从业者无需攻读完整学位也能回到布尔诺校园取得资质。

• Field practice in the Lednice vineyards, on the Žabčice training farm and in the Křtiny forest stands is part of the timetable rather than an extra, and students of horticulture and silviculture spend whole semesters outside the city.莱德尼采葡萄园、日夫奇采培训农场与克尔日提林地的野外实习属课表内容而非附加活动，园艺与林学学生常整学期在外地度过。

• The Mendel Museum in the abbey where the university's patron worked, now administered by Masaryk University, serves as a place of orientation and public outreach, its garden within walking distance of the lecture halls of Židenice.校名人物当年工作的修道院如今设孟德尔博物馆并由马萨里克大学管理，用作新生教育与公众推广之地，其菜园距日德尼采的教室仅步行之遥。

• Brno's student economy frames daily life, the city was listed among the ten best student cities in the world by QS in 2018, and MENDELU dormitories sit inside the same transport network as those of Masaryk University and the Brno University of Technology.布尔诺的学生经济界定日常，QS 在 2018 年把该市列入全球十佳学生城市，该校宿舍与马萨里克大学、布尔诺理工大学宿舍同处一套交通网内。

• International students amount to almost 20 percent of enrolment, close to 1,600 people on the university's own figure, a share the institution advertises as proof of an English-friendly environment inside a Czech-language university.国际学生占注册人数近 20%、按校方数字近 1,600 人，校方把这一比例宣传为一所以捷克语为主的大学里的英语友好环境。

Notable people

• Gregor Johann Mendel, born in 1822 and dead in Brno in 1884, is the patron of the university, and the 1994 renaming made an Augustinian abbot who counted pea characters the public face of an agricultural, forestry and economics institution.格雷戈尔·孟德尔 1822 年出生、1884 年卒于布尔诺，是该校的冠名人物，1994 年的改名让这位计数豌豆性状的奥斯定会院长成为一所以农林经济为主的大学门面。
