History

The University of Debrecen is a university located in Debrecen, Hungary – a city whose higher education history begins in 1538 with the founding of the Reformed College of Debrecen. In 1912 the Hungarian Parliament vowed to establish two universities – one in Pozsony and the other in Debrecen – this led to the creation of the Hungarian Royal University of Debrecen, which opened in 1914. It was soon realised that the university’s facility was too small for its amount of students and so a new site was granted and funded by the city of Debrecen. This new building was opened in 1918 which became the Faculty of Medicine. Mathematics and Science began to be taught at the university a few years later within the Faculty of Arts.Show more

    Friendly people

    I enjoyed my time there, the teacher were mostly kind and friendly, and gave us useful knowledge. The building is one of the most beautiful university buildings of the entire world. I made a lot of friends there.

    Practical Learning Experience

    My programme has been both challenging and rewarding. What stood out most for me are the lectures who are warm, approachable, and genuinely invested in their students’ growth. Classes are delivered in English and designed to be interactive, which makes learning more engaging and collaborative.
    As a foreign student, I quickly realized that there isn’t much structured support to help you settle in. You have to be deliberate about asking questions, seeking help, and building your own network. This challenge inspired us to create a student network for people from my continent — a community that offers guidance, connection, and encouragement. We are even linking this network with embassies to help new students transition more smoothly and feel at home as they study.

    Overall, the programme has given me both knowledge and resilience. I would recommend it to students who are open to learning, growing, and contributing to a supportive community while studying abroad.

      Hello Tahillah! I am guessing your are still at the university, and while BA Psychology is not your program, I am interested, if you know how many students are enrolled in BA Psychology as of now, and are there internationals in this program? Do you know someone who is studying Psychology and what they say? I am asking because I am interested in enrolling for the next year as a possibility, but I need to know some inside facts and I cannot find anything on the internet. Is it worth is to pursue BA Psychology at UniDeb? Any information will be helpful. Thank you for your help.

    Ups and downs of unideb

    Am still in my first semester but the experience so far has been okay, the people here and nice and very helpful with showing you around and telling you all the things you need to put in place. But there’s no tour of the school to really show the students where is where, which can make it difficult to know places to get around they aren’t really any tour guides, signs and direction to let you know your way around. Also they make no effort in helping students when school accommodations are full, no recommendations no out of school apartments or anything so finding an accommodation close to your campus and student friendly is solely and entirely up to you.

    Curriculum

    The Bachelor’s program in Computer Science at UniDeb is solidly structured, blending theory and hands-on practice with nearly equal emphasis. Students master algorithms, software development, databases (including SQL and NoSQL), web technologies, AI foundations, machine learning, and cybersecurity across its six-semester, 180 ECTS setup
