PLEASE NOTE!

English-language programs are offered only as full-time programs; studying in these programs involves full-week, daytime commitments, and due to the need to use and practice specialized terminology in a foreign language, an individualized course of study can only be granted based on exceptional language proficiency. According to current regulations, the diploma awarded upon completion of an English-language program certifies C1-level language proficiency—equivalent to an advanced-level language exam. Consequently, the development of foreign language (English) proficiency takes place throughout the entire program and cannot be substituted by courses taught in Hungarian.

Admission Requirements

Holders of a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Management or International Business, or—upon completion of additional credits—in Applied Economics, Economic Analysis, Public Service, Commerce and Marketing, Human Resources, Finance and Accounting, Tourism and Hospitality, or Business Education.
