ResearchGeneral Information
University of Pécs is the largest and one of the most prominent institutions in Hungary with ten different faculties and thirty thousand students. The Faculty of Humanities is set up of two related disciplines: humanities and social sciences. Our trainings provide both contemporary academic knowledge and skills; they also add to the reflective and critical thinking of the students and to the development of social, communicative and technical abilities. Some unique training programmes offered at our Faculty include Hungarian as a foreign language, Croatian and German as an ethnic minority programme, Roma (Gipsy) studies, Roman provincial archaeology, theatrical studies and several specialist programmes that emphasize the international aspects of the liberal arts, such as European studies, American studies, English studies, Francophone studies, Russian translation and interpretation, Polish cultural studies.Mission and Objectives
Our aim is to provide trainings that meet the requirements of the 21st century: flexibility and quality. The academic mission of the Faculty, for all students and teachers, promotes international education and respect the values of other cultures in Europe and all around the world. We offer, through international partnerships a wide range of opportunity for students and teachers to study and research abroad. Every year about 90 to 100 humanities students pursue their studies at various universities in Europe under the Erasmus programme. In terms of the number of outgoing students, our Faculty is the first one among the faculties of the University of Pécs.Main Projects / Activities
Deepening our already existing relations and creating new ones we plan to provide facilities to our teachers and students to participate in research projects, part-time, semester-long and summer university scholarships on the field of Humanities and Social Sciences. Together with our Euromed partners we are proposing to create research and double-, joint-degree programmes. As the first step of that we created a research – educational cooperation with one of our Turkish partner (Istanbul University) on the field of Archaeology.
