"The Students' mission" is a project which runs for the third semester in the Operational Programme Prague - Adaptability (OPPA), financially supported by the ESF (European Social Fund) and supervized by the Prague National Heritage Institute. It is primarily focused on active student participation in research on the suburban areas of Prague (Košíře and Hlubočepy).
The aim is to enrich teaching, stimulate students' interest in architectural preservation and experimentally evaluate a possible research methodology. The archaeology students' work on the project is unprecedented and innovative.
The goal is to create detailed maps of Hlubočepy including the results of previous and current research with emphasis on the interconnection of historical and contemporary architectural and urban planning researches (output will be a complete map in GIS related to the current cadastral map of the territory). Within the collection of maps of Hlubočepy the following topics will be interpreted and depicted as topics of interest: prehistoric settlements, medieval urban structure of the community, industrial and railway constructions, religious buildings and precincts, tourist and pilgrimage sites.
In addition to working with archival documents the students also do a field research and invite the public to be aware of the need to preserve monuments.
