Study programmes
The University of Szeged (SZTE) with its thirty thousand students, two thousand professors, altogether seven thousand staff members is one of the largest, highest standard and most reputable higher education institutions in Hungary.
The SZTE was ranked among the top 100 European universities in various international ranking systems. Our university was relocated here from Cluj (Kolozsvár) to thebanks of the River Tisza in 1921 and since then it has practically become one with Szeged. Eleven faculties of the university operate in this town and the Faculty of Agriculture is located in Hódmezővásárhely. In accordance with the Bologna Process all training courses, ranging from non-degree programmes, Bachelor, Master, Undivided, Doctoral training to post- gradual courses are available that are considered valuable both by students and on the labour market. The University of Szeged offers education in a number of fields of the different disciplines for its present and future students.
SZTE Experience
Ahmad Adha - Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences
I am Ahmad Adha from Indonesia and currently a 3rd year student in Theoretical Linguistics PhD program. I chose the University of Szeged (SZTE) as my study destination because it is located in the center of the town and it is also the highest ranked university in Hungary. The university staff and the professors were very accommodating and understanding when I decided to change the program that suits my research topic. I am so glad that I can be a part of my current department, and of course SZTE, since it is also the Center of Pragmatic Research which aims to promote advanced linguistic pragmatic research with international collaborations. After graduating, I wish to continue to work in my academic field as a professor and a researcher. My advice for prospective SZTE students is to choose a university with a good academic reputation that fits their passion.
Hamza Baniata – Faculty of Science and Informatics
I am Hamza Baniata, a first-year student at the Doctoral School of Computer Science, and I am From Jordan. SZTE is continuously supporting research and it has an internationally recognized, highly ranked group of professors. It also offers courses and research topics that are strongly related to my research field; Cloud Computing, Fog Computing and Internet of Things. All of this motivated me to apply to the University/Department of Software Engineering. Szeged is a calm city, full of love and peace. The University of Szeged is similar to the city, which provides the perfect environment for creation and development. Studying at the university requires a high level of effort, commitment and seriousness. Applying to the university and having these characteristics are my two pieces of advice to prospective students. It is very early to define my future now, but I am planning to apply to a research position in my field after graduation and if I had the opportunity, I would love to contribute my effort and knowledge in advancing such a wonderful and respected university.
