Our Supply Chain Management master’s program offers you to learn about the strategic and tactical decisions of supply chain management, from procurement through manufacturing to distribution, by completing our revamped course path. The program can be completed in 1 or 2 years, depending on your background. If you have not had serious exposure to supply chain management so far, do not worry!
Your programme is a modern, progressive programme, that prepares you to be competitive on the changing job market of the present and the future. The business environment is changing very fast, thus we will have to prepare you to meet the challenges of the yet unknown.

The first year prepares you for our advanced level supply chain management courses through a series of courses that lay the foundations of your supply chain management expertise, and also broaden your horizons to see how supply chain management is connected to other aspects of business management. The second year builds on your knowledge acquired in the first year, and focuses on state-of-the-art supply chain management knowledge from every angle – be it legal, financial, strategic or operational. In the 2-year version you can also join the CEMS double degree program!

You can download it from your Neptun (Administration/general forms). Set the page to 100 items. The documents are already signed and stamped.
Print it and bring it to the Students’ Area and a student coordinator will sign and stamp it for you.
Come to the Students’ Area and a student coordinator will insert this sentence into your certificate, then print, sign, and stamp it for you / request it via Doitonline and a student coordinator will prepare and scan it for you.
Sorry, Neptun does not see the future and is not programmed to issue documents for the future. However, on your student status certificate there is information about the expected and of your legal status with Corvinus.
You can get it in the Students’ Area (bring an ID and your NEK sheet. The real documents, not just photos of them).
No, because civil authorities and BKK do not accept scanned temporary student IDs, only the original ones.
As this card is made by the government, not by the single universities, first you need to go to a government office and register for a student ID.
The government office gives you a paper called NEK sheet (do not lose it, you will need it later for years). You must enter its code in the top right had corner into your Neptun (Administration / Student Card request).
The governmental Education Office will make a card for you and when it is ready, they will send it to the Student Office for you.
In the meantime, you can get a temporary student ID in the Students’ Area.
First inform Student Services about the lost card (Doitonline or in person in the Student Area) so that they can set the status of your student ID to “lost” in Neptun. Then you do the same steps as with your first card: go to the government office etc.
That is probably because many requests are only available before their deadlines. These are usually communicated via Neptun messages. Please always read your Neptun messages.
You need to contact the department which is in charge of that subject. Only the department administrators can open up more places. This is not a matter for the Student Office.
