The International Education Forum in Budapest, Hungary is an educational-training exhibition which aims to inform secondary school students, their parents, undergraduate and postgraduate students about Hungarian and international higher education study courses and professional programmes.
The International Education Forum aims to:
- inform students, who are planning their future studies, about Hungarian and International study opportunities.
- present Hungarian, International study and Professional programmes from colleges, universities and other educational organisations to visiting students.
Why you should join the International Education Forum:
- The fair is held at a time that is the best suited to the potential target group; at a time before they make their long-term decisions.
- February 15th is the application deadline for Hungarian higher education institutions. In addition many international institutions share application deadlines in the months around this time also. To make the right decision it is important to get to know about the possibilities in time. With our event, organized at the end of November, before the Christmas holidays, we provide the time students will require to collect information and make considerations about their studies.
- Students studying on BA courses will be able to get information about the selection of available courses at their and other universities (at international level) just before the deadline for the application for the MA courses (January).
- This international education forum could also be the opening event of the traditional open days of colleges and universities, so these open days will be visited by better prepared, more purposeful and more interested students.
- The venue can easily be reached for both secondary school students from Hungary and the international exhibitors.
- The organisers of the event have professional backgrounds and have experience in organizing both home and foreign exhibitions, education-training fairs and other events at a high standard.
- Besides providing the usual options for the exhibitors’ stands, we are open to special individual requests concerning innovations in the layout be they modest or adventurous.
In Hungary the first students, who started their studies under the Bologna-process, will graduate in 2009. It is believed that the majority of students will not stop after finishing their BA / BSc courses as they are used to the idea of 5-years of university studies.
From September, approximately 17,000 students will look to continue their studies at some MA course in Hungary. The applicants, this year, can chose from a much larger selection: while last year students applied for 76MA different courses, this year this number is 164. Pedagogy, arts, economics and social sciences make up the most popular faculties of choice in Hungary. Almost three quarters of the students applying for MA courses look to study on one of these four large areas.
