The atmosphere of an excellent student – lecturer relationship coupled with excellent support services for students of all categories. Again ELTE creates more opportunies for students of different cultural backgrounds to socialize and create active groups for life.

What are the challenges in your study program?

Learning the Hungarian language and culture in order to communicate easily outside the university and coming from a tropical climate zone, adapting to the seasonal weather in Hungary was a great challenge but with time it actually became normal and I now feel proud to be part of the Hungarian family.

A degree from ELTE will provide a fantastic platform for my future because of the practical approach in teaching that will really equip me with an upper hand in current issues, strategies and up to date software usage and analysis. Again it will help grow my career professionally and render quality services to humanity in the quest to serve the society. Finally, a degree from ELTE will have a positive impact not only on me as an individual but society as a whole.

Do you have any recommendations for future students at ELTE?

Actually my advice for future students is to make ELTE the prime choice if they really want to experience both theoretical and practical based teaching and to be part of the globally recognized community.
