Orientation Week

The Albert Szent-Györgyi Medical School and the Directorate for International Affairs and Public Relations are delighted to welcome incoming first year and transfer students to the University of Szeged.

A multi-day series of events, programs, and meetings has been organised to provide new students with an in-depth overview of how the university and the medical school work. The Orientation Week aims to provide a mix of fun and educational components to help students’ transition to becoming a university student. It is held the week prior to the start of classes and further, faculty-specific activities are available during the first week of the fall semester as well.


The medical school would like to use this week to introduce you to the expectations of the faculty while also providing you with all the information you need about the new program, curriculum, faculty, medical school campus, etc. You’ll receive everything you need to get familiar with your future course load, including detailed curriculum programs and student policy handbooks.


Some activities will take the form of fun, interactive, group-based activities and games designed to encourage you to work with one another. Conducted by current medical students, these activities give you a chance to work on your communication, community building and interactive skills.


Social events will help you to get to know each other, explore the campus and meet your seniors and faculty members. It’s important to use these social events to make friends with your classmates and to identify helpful mentors among older students or faculty members.


Below you can find the links to the detailed schedule of events and programs during the Orientation Week.

szegedi kutatók metánnal kapcsolatos felfedezései

More than twenty-five years ago, a research initiative on methane was launched in Szeged, opening entirely new perspectives on how inflammatory processes can be treated. Today, methane – once dismissed as an inert atmospheric bystander – is emerging as a surprising ally in the fight against inflammation. Building on this long-running work, Professor Dr. Mihály Boros and his team are now exploring methane’s biological effects in research that may reshape how we understand and treat inflammatory diseases. We spoke with Professor Boros about the discoveries emerging from their project, supported by HU-rizon, an international research-excellence program funded by Hungary’s National Research, Development and Innovation Office (NRDI Office).

The University of Szeged has reached another major milestone: on September 12, Prof. Dr. Daniel Kendoff – a world-renowned orthopedic and trauma surgeon, specialist in robot-assisted surgery, and Director of the ENDO Clinic in Berlin – performed the first CORI robot-assisted hip replacement surgery at the Department of Traumatology and Orthopaedics at SZTE’s Clinical Center. This was the first time such an operation was carried out within the framework of the publicly funded healthcare system in Hungary.
