Interactive sessions and discussions will also be held to help counselors more effectively support prospective students in charting a clear course toward university success.
Reinforcing the University of Szeged’s commitment to guiding students in making informed decisions about their higher education journey, collaboration with high school counselors strengthens partnerships and broadens students’ access to academic resources, institutional networks, and career pathways. These connections play a key role in fostering a diverse learning environment and ensuring that students attain internationally recognized academic qualifications.
As part of these efforts, in 2024, the University of Szeged joined the Council of International Schools (CIS), a global organization that connects schools and universities across the world. This membership highlights the university’s dedication to upholding excellence in international education and extending its global reach.
