Introducing 'Early bird' and 'Sibling' tuition fee discounts!
Do you pride yourself on getting things done early? Or do you have siblings maybe? In either case, at the Albert Szent-Györgyi Medical school, that will secure you discounts! We offer discounts to siblings and students admitted early in the admission period beginning in the 2024/2025 academic year.
The following discounts will be available from the 2024/2025 academic year:
Early bird discount: Students who are admitted to the first year medical program of the Albert Szent-Györgyi Medical School or the Foundation Year program of the University of Szeged prior to April 30 will receive a 300 euro discount that is deducted from their tuition fees of their very first semester. In the case of Foundation Year students, the 300 euro discount will cover the application fee for any health science program.
Sibling discount: Siblings (brothers/sisters) receive a 300 euro discount every semester in which both—or more—of them have an active student status. In the event that such students pay 50% of the full amount of their tuition fees, this discount is reduced to 150 euros per semester. If one of the siblings involved has a passive student status in a semester, the discount is suspended for the duration of the passive student status. In case one sibling's student status is terminated, the discount will no longer apply to the other sibling(s).

The University of Szeged and MSD have established a joint Pharmaceutical Industry Partnership Department, marking a new chapter in their collaboration. This initiative builds on a long-standing partnership – further strengthened in 2023 through clinical trial cooperation – and seeks to foster innovation in research, education, and pharmaceutical development. The agreement was officially signed in Szeged by Prof. Dr. László Rovó, Rector of the University of Szeged; Prof. Dr. Ildikó Csóka, Director-General for Strategic Planning; Prof. Dr. Zsolt Szakonyi, Dean of the Faculty of Pharmacy; Sean R. Smith, Managing Director of MSD Pharma Hungary Kft.; and Dr. Szabolcs Barótfi, Director of Clinical Research at MSD Hungary.
On May 12, the University of Szeged held an official ceremony to inaugurate its new research unit: the Host–Pathogen Interaction Center. Located within the Institute of Biology, the Center features Hungary’s only in vivo experimental station of its kind, alongside five newly renovated laboratories. This state-of-the-art facility is designed to support the development of antimicrobial therapies, with a particular focus on antifungal treatments – addressing a pressing yet often overlooked public health concern. The project was made possible through both professional and financial support from Katalin Karikó, an SZTE alumna and recipient of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
