Student - International Relations
The International Relations program at Corvinus equipped me with vital knowledge in economics, sociology, and political science within just one year. This strong foundation helped me land a position in Corvinus' international student recruitment team and an internship at my country's embassy. Thanks to Corvinus, I was able to advance toward my career goals in a short time.
Student - International Relations
Corvinus stands out for its truly international environment—bringing together students from across the globe, including regions often overlooked in Western universities. That diversity, mixed with Hungary’s interesting regional position, give depth to studying International Relations. The education is affordable and high-quality, with professors who are supportive and accessible. The campus has great facilities, there are a wide array of student organizations, and Budapest is a beautiful, vibrant city with plenty to explore and is well connected to all of Europe. My time at Corvinus has been both academically rewarding and personally enriching
Student - International Relations
From the very beginning, first as an applicant and now as a student at Corvinus, I felt like a valued member of the community. This stems from the hands-on approach taken, from the professors that inspire me to go above and beyond what’s learned in the classroom, to the many friends I have met. Through various student organizations, workshops, events and people that support me, I can say that my current experience not only builds up my confidence, but makes me eager and truly excited to see what my future will look like as part of the Corvinus community.
