I’ve attended this university for Bachelor and Master of Science degree in Computer Science. As Hungary’s leading engineering university it lived up to my expectations. Mostly great teachers, busy student communities.
During my BSc studies I felt we had a bit too wide range of subjects, without much specialization. I had to go to classes which didn’t really interested me, but I guess it’s like that everywhere, Bachelor’s degree are supposed to give us a wide range of knowledge and a good foundation for going further. And even i the certain classes didn’t interest me, the degree as a whole gave me a good engineering mindset.
I liked my Master’s much better, with the possibility to specialize more. I could study and research what interested me. The teacher’s are u to date with current technologies, most of them had industrial experience. All of them who I spoke to were open to questions, and was happy to discuss and even debate different opinions. I even got help in looking for a job after I finished.
Very big part of the university experience is the community. We had a really great one, with good opportunities to step out from the classroom and our comfort zones. There were several student competitions with different technologies, where people could try out their ideas and work on much more fascinating things than the usual class exercises. For example I got to modify an RC car to be able to follow a line on its own and do different task and compete with other similar cars on a racetrack. Beside engineering opportunities I joined ESN which gave me a lot of experience in teamwork, in leading people, and a great deal of social skills. So basically the university gave me everything I was looking for both in the professional field and in social life. And I haven’t mentioned sports yet, which also plays a big part o the student life.
