Our graduates’ extensive and competitive professional knowledge, the recognition and acknowledgement of our scientific findings on both the national and international level, and the implementation of our research and development practices in the everyday operation of enterprises all indicate our future success. We aim to become Hungary’s most outstanding agricultural university and a determining factor of rural and agricultural development as our student numbers increase, our scientific results grow, innovation potential expands, international acknowledgement increases, and our range of partners widens.
