The faculty of UD, the biggest Hungarian university outside Budapest, offers programmes at bachelor and master level, one-tier and dual programmes, special courses and PhD programmes.

– It is important to continuously extend the spectrum of our programmes. Today we have academic courses in nearly all areas with the demands of the labour market in mind, and without giving up traditions – explained Róbert Keményfi to unideb.hu.

The dean of the faculty pointed out that, in addition to the academic programmes, UD also provides a wide variety of services to students. Eighty percent of the applicants get a place in the dormitories of the university, which is a very high ratio in Hungary. Through DEAC many sport sections are available to students, not to mention the gyms of the Unifit fitness centre, the swimming pool and the horse riding academy.

Róbert Keményfi highlighted that the faculty puts great emphasis on teaching languages, as UD is in partnership with over 660 universities involved in the Erasmus programme, for example, just to mention a few European countries, in Ireland, Italy or Finland, where students can spend time even more than once, partly due to the CEEPUS and Campus Mundi programmes.

The faculty also provides financial help to its best students who, depending on their academic results, have various opportunities: in addition to the academic, social and professional scholarship programmes, students who attend the one-tier teacher education can apply for the Klebelsberg scholarship.

The faculty also puts great emphasis on talent management with two specialist halls and four doctoral programmes.

– I believe that, contrary to the popular belief, people with a degree in humanities can easily get a job. We have courses where students land a job even before graduation, owing to our high-quality, practice-oriented programmes and the dynamic industrial development of Debrecen. Graduates of UD who speak foreign languages, equipped with knowledge and experience, and with foreign contacts are highly popular on the labour market.
