This year, in the ‘Employability–Performance Improvement’ category, the QS awarded Corvinus University of Budapest. The commendation highlighted that the university has taken significant steps to enhance the employability of its graduates, nurturing future leaders who will make a substantial impact in their respective fields.

‘Justice, equality before the law, and freedom. I have travelled the world and have not found a combination of values and structures that better support the flourishing of the human soul and human nature,’ János Csák remarked at the launch of his book titled Genius of America. The Minister of Culture and Innovation’s work delves into how liberty, freedom, and equality before the law have become the United States’ three most important values, and how Americans can rediscover happiness by overcoming the current profound divisions in society.

Hungarian American Tisza Fizli was born and raised in Los Angeles but currently studies economics in Hungary, at Corvinus University as a Diaspora Higher Education Scholar. In the interview, she talks about her Hungarian roots, her upbringing, and her love for the city of Budapest.

The combined effects of the expansion of women’s education from the beginning of the 1990s, and Act CLIV of 1997 on health, regulating infertility treatments, caused a significant increase in the number of twin births in Hungary. Among the secondary school aged population (birth cohort 2004–2008), based on statistics, at least one set of twins is bound to occur in a class of 30 students.

Corvinus University of Budapest is the only institution in Hungary to have been awarded the international BSIS certification for its contribution to local and regional socio-economic development.

Loved and criticised, enjoyed and hated — the university experience is different for everyone. For Hungarian students, recent years have been a rollercoaster. With more changes in higher education coming, it is time for some stocktaking.
