The Hungarian delegation consisted of the Rector of the SZE-Gy\u00f6r, Dr. P\u00e9ter F\u00f6ldesi, and 5 other members of the university, including the director of the students and international cooperation centre, the director of strategy, and the head of the Foundation. Together they were met by the URV\u2019s Vice-Rector for Internationalisation, Dr Mar Guti\u00e9rrez-Col\u00f3n, and the Vice-Rector for Scientific and Research Policy, Dr Josep Manel Ricart, who explained to them how the URV operates in the region and described the possible forms of collaboration for those institutions interested in becoming partners with the URV.<\/p>\n

The URV\u2019s interest in collaborating with the SZE-Gy\u00f6r is due to the latter\u2019s history as a technical university offering courses in telecommunications and transport and its very close links with companies operating in its region such as Audi, Philips o Nokia. Its students often have a job to go to even before they finish their degrees.<\/p>\n

However, the SZE is not a prominent research institution and there is little mobility among its students or staff, which meant that one of the most important subjects under discussion were the quality of the URV\u2019s doctoral programmes and the numbers of international students studying on them.<\/p>\n

During the meeting, the rector of the SZE-Gy\u00f6r stated his intention to sign a student mobility agreement and mentioned the possibility of promoting mobility among research staff.<\/p>\n

He was also interested in the URV\u2019s Strategic Internationalisation Plan and Pla Dang (Plan for Teaching in English), given that one of his primary objectives is to increase the numbers of foreign students.<\/p>\n

In addition, the General Consul, Barnab\u00e1s Kovaks, who had helped set up the meeting and was accompanied by two more representatives from the consulate, congratulated the URV on the organisation of the visit and said that he would be sending more delegations to promote international mobility in Hungary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
