Study in Hungary
Hungary is a beautiful landlocked EU country situated in the Carpathian Basin, in the middle of the continent. Despite being rather small, its beneficial Central European position makes the country an appealing destination to live, work or
study. Hungary has much to offer for visitors, from the architectural and cultural delights of historic cities to vineyard-covered hills, freshwater lakes, and therapeutic mineral springs. This small country is one of the oldest in Europe where 2000-year old Roman ruins and 400-year-old Turkish monuments can be found side by side. Hungarian higher education has represented academic excellence for more than 650 years. The country’s first university was founded in Pécs in
1367, around the same time as other Central European universities, such as those in Prague, Cracow and Vienna.
