András Jávor, Rector’s Chief Advisor at the University of Debrecen, Vice Chair of the Committee of Higher Education Institutions across the Border of the Hungarian Rectors’ Conference, highlighted the following: the objective of the University of Debrecen is to assist as many students abroad to get a diploma as possible, and to develop higher education institutions across the border through these degree programs.
“In the future, we wish to upgrade these programs and promote them to the status of joint programs through issuing joint degrees and diplomas. In the long run, we hope to establish teaching staff groups in the partner institutions under the auspices of the University of Debrecen that make it possible for these majors in Hungarian to be independently accredited in Romania and in Ukraine, too. In the upcoming academic year, UD will work on further expanding the system of programs across the border. We plan to launch new majors, for example, in the fields of civil engineering and arts. In addition, we would also like to introduce programs across the border in Szatmárnémeti (Satu Mare, Romania) and in Királyhelmec (Kralovsky Chlmec, Slovakia),” said András Jávor.
For the 2021/2022 academic year, the application forms for these programs can be submitted by the students in August and September at the institutions located abroad, which will be then adjudicated by a the University of Debrecen.
