Corvinus University of Budapest and the University of Passau have extended their cooperation on training. The working relationship between the two institutions started 30 years ago, and more than 1000 students have participated in the German-language programme in economics during that period. Of them, more than 800 students have received a supplementary degree or a German-Hungarian double-degree. The cooperation has been carried out, right from the onset, with financial support received from the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This jubilee was celebrated in a prestigious professional event at Corvinus.

The conference developed from an idea of the Hungarian student community in Cambridge.
