Hungarian language classes are provided by the Coordinating Centre for International Education.
From the 2020/2021 academic year onwards, new Stipendium Hungaricum holder students - both undergraduate and graduate - are required to complete 2 semesters of Hungarian as a foreign language. If they fail to do so, they will lose the scholarship and have to finance their studies on their own. Language classes will be free of charge.
Please note that the above rules DO NOT apply to Stipendium Hungaricum students who are already in their 4th year but they are free to take the remaining seats (if there are any) and register for Hungarian Language as an optional course.
The courses consist of 40 classes (2x2 classes/week) and start in late September, lasting for 10 weeks.
Please note that for those of you whose Hungarian language course clashes with one of the obligatory subjects and for those who could not register for any of the courses, the Coordinating Centre will provide an intensive language course during the semester (eventual during the exam period of the semester).
The courses can be found in the Neptun system under "All other subjects of the institution" with the code TTIS_HUNG_LANG1.
If you go to "Register" next to the subject name, you will see all the available courses.
We suggest to choose one of the courses with _MK at the end of the code. These are in the building of the Faculty of Engineering and at a time that is not clashing with compulsory subjects.
If these MK courses are full, you can choose also from _MIXED courses, but these are often at other campuses.
Details of the course (schedule, venue) you can see if you go above the "Comments" coloumn.
Hungarian courses are opened for the students of each faculy separately and there are also "mixed" groups. Therefore student of the Faculty of Engineering can only choose between courses ending "MK" or "MIXED". Other courses are tough to see, but not to register.
Hungarian language course exemptions
Completed Hungarian language courses of at least 40 hours are accepted as exemptions, if you completed the Hungarian course:
- as an optional subject in your previous studies at UD and it is shown in your neptun system as completed.
