Our Faculty, which is one of the leading Law Schools of Hungary, responded to this challenge by offering in-house courses in transnational and comparative studies, as well as initiating cooperation with universities from all around the world. Students at our Faculty can now choose from a variety of foreign legal and international study programmes where they will gain in-depth knowledge of various legal systems and international relations. Traditional lectures and innovative seminars are held by faculty members or practicing lawyers and other experts, as well as international scholars, visiting lecturers from across the globe. Our modules allow students and lecturers to meet in a multicultural environment to boost the efficiency of studying and research.
