SHORT HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PANNONIA
The history of the University of Pannonia can be best illustrated through the development of its respective faculties. During its colorful history, the university has always responded flexibly to the manifold challenges and needs of society, offering internationally competitive quality education and research opportunities besides functioning as an active contributor to the economic, scientific, and cultural development of the region. The Georgikon Faculty of Agricultural Sciences in the town of Keszthely was founded in 1797 by Count György Festetics, who was simultaneously the initiator, supporter and manager of the project. As an enduring
legacy, the Georgikon Faculty – which was transformed several times during its history and joined the University of Pannonia in 2000 – is considered to be the oldest agricultural institution in continental Europe.
In 1949, the Faculty of Engineering was launched in Veszprém with the main mission of providing elite education for chemical engineers. However, as the number of students increased and the societal needs diversified in the forthcoming decades, so did the range of courses and programs offered by the faculty. The Faculty of Modern Philology and Social Sciences was founded as a separate faculty in Veszprém in 1990 to host undergraduate and graduate programs in humanities, social sciences and teacher training.
The year 2003 witnessed the addition of two new faculties to the university. The Faculty of Information Technology was founded to provide state-of-the-art education, research and development in IT and IT-related engineering fields. The Faculty of Economics has functioned ever since as a center for training future experts and leaders in economics, management and engineering.
The university acquired its present name (“University of Pannonia”) in 2006, a choice which encapsulates the multifaceted scientific character, regional engagement, and strategic mission of the institution.
Several prestigious awards attest the continuous and dynamic development of the University of Pannonia and prove its commitment to quality education, research, exemplary student services and societal engagement.
In 2008 the Faculty of Economics received the Quality Award of Higher Education, an honour also bestowed on the Faculty of Engineering in 2011.
In recognition of its incessant pursuit of quality and its continued commitment to a leading role in regional development, the University of Pannonia was conferred the Royal Region Award (“Királyi Régióért Díj”) in 2009, followed by the Outstanding University (“Kiváló Egyetem”) ministerial-level recognition in 2010. The Faculty of Engineering of the University of Pannonia was awarded the “Research Faculty” recognition by the government in 2013.
Therefore, one can proudly and rightfully claim that the University of Pannonia produces, promotes and cultivates scientific knowledge, functions as the guardian and mediator of cultural values, creates quality and builds the spirit of universitas, and also opens new horizons for the educational, research and student community not only in the region, but also at national and international level.

MISSION AND STRATEGY
The University of Pannonia performs research and R&D activities and offers programmes in the main areas of engineering, economics, information technology, social and agricultural sciences.
Prestigious international projects provide researchers’ and students’ mobility, and also contribute to the quality of the programmes in these areas. In all activities, including international projects, the university seriously takes sustainability into account.
The university’s duty in general, is to provide professional service for all three types of partners, i.e. students, institutes for research, and companies for innovations. Therefore, the “building” of the university can be imagined as having three entrances, one for each type of partners. Any of them entering the building must receive professional service, according to their requirements. This is the key point in the organizational structure of the university, which provides quality, efficiency, and sustainability simultaneously.
FACULTY OF BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS
The University of Pannonia founded the Institute of Economics in 2000, which became the Independent Institute of Economics on 1st of January 2001. This Institute was responsible for the economic programmes within the Faculty of Engineering until September 2003, when the Faculty of Economics came into being. In 2012 in accordance with the double profile the name has been officially altered to Faculty of Business and Economics. The primary objective of the Faculty of Business and Economics is the education of economists, engineering managers and the further education and retraining of executives. The aim is to train future professionals who are capable of creating, managing and leading systems of enterprises, as well as non-profit organisations.
The Faculty of Business and Economics is composed of three institutes, educating and carrying out research in ten different fields:
Institute of Business
o Department of Accountancy and Controlling
o Department of Business Economics
o Department of Finance
o Department of Management
o Department of Tourism Institute of Economics
o Department of Economics
o Department of International Economics Institute of Management
o Department of Management
o Department of Quantitative Methods
o Department of Supply Chain Management
Within its multilevel and linear education system, the Faculty offers nearly 20 bachelor’s and master’s programmes in three fields: business economics, economics and technical management. The Faculty offers the following programmes fully in English: BA in Business Administration and Management, BA in Business Administration and Management, MA in Economic Analysis and MA in Tourism Management.
At the Faculty of Business and Economics ERASMUS students attend lessons in English together with Hungarian students, which provides them an enriching multicultural team experience. In order to be able to keep up with the study requirements, all students must have a good command of English for academic purposes. The required minimum level of English language knowledge is B1.

Founded in 1916, AACSB International is the longest serving global accrediting body for business schools that offer undergraduate, master’s and doctoral degree in business and accounting. AACSB Accreditation is the hallmark of excellence in business education. Membership is a valuable resource of the development of the Faculty, making international contacts and world-wide reputation. The accreditation means competitive advantage that
GEORGIKON FACULTY
The legal predecessor of the Georgikon Faculty was founded in Keszthely by Count György Festetics in 1797. The Georgikon was the first institution of agricultural higher education in Europe. In 1989 this institution became the Georgikon Faculty of Agriculture of the Pannon University of Agricultural Sciences. It was on the 1st of January 2000 when the Pannon University of Agricultural Sciences and the University of Veszprém were united, since 1 March 2006, the institution is called the University of Pannonia.
The educational profile of the Georgikon is remarkably colourful. Besides the traditional agricultural sciences, a great emphasis is laid on modern ecological considerations with a view to provide high quality education. The Faculty offers a wide range of choices to the prospective students: the applicants can choose from nine BSc and ten MSc programmes. Two MSc programmes are available for foreign students in English language, too.
The main scene of practical training at the Faculty is the Experimental and Demonstration Farm established in 2005, whose institutional predecessor was awarded several titles of acknowledgement. Its crop production, animal breeding, horticultural training and research facilities are located in the immediate vicinity of the Halls of Residence.
The Georgikon Faculty has ongoing research programmes in every field of its educational profile. The professors, lecturers and researchers have achieved prominent results in improving and breeding arable, fodder and horticultural crops and developing agricultural technologies. In addition to these, the noteworthy long-term experiments and research projects of the Faculty in the field agrochemistry and erosion research have been conducted for several decades. To comply with the requirements of modern times, the institution is also engaged in the development of integrated plant protection procedures, application of technological quality control of plant protection machinery and environmental protection diagnostics. In the field of animal husbandry, the Faculty has very advanced research projects concerned with pig and beef cattle breeding, population genetics and toxicology. Apart from the traditional research topics more and more stress is laid on interdisciplinary studies.
The Faculty is proud of the Potato Research Centre, as well. On the one hand, it is engaged in the breeding of profitable potato varieties suitable for Central European agro-ecological conditions, resistant against major potato pests, pathogens and extreme weather conditions. On the other hand, the centre is concerned with seed propagation and marketing of the varieties. The vineyard and the Georgikon Winery in Cserszegtomaj are also worth mentioning. A historic wine cellar belongs to it, which has earned the title of the most beautiful wine cellar of the Balaton Highlands in 1999. One outstanding result of the work conducted there, with the application of modern methods and equipment, is the Cserszegi fűszeres grape variety and the world famous white wine produced from it.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
As one of the leading Hungarian higher education institutions, the University of Pannonia, in the spirit of European traditions, contributes to the development of science, society, quality of life and its surroundings in the Central Transdanubian Region with outstanding research, development and innovation.
Our institution undertakes national and international projects across a wide range of fields including the natural, technological, social and economic, agricultural sciences and the humanities. This breadth is a consequence of the restructuring process started at the beginning of the 1990s and the institutional integration executed in 2000.
The University of Pannonia regards itself as a research university committed to education of the highest standard, where tutors’ and researchers’ innovative work is recognised at an international level. This also serves to underpin the high quality of the teaching provided to our students.
The economic and social transformation in the Central Transdanubian Region and the need to improve the quality of life makes it urgent that we develop more local research and innovation and help to provide the infrastructure and personal conditions to put these into practice.
In order to achieve this, the University of Pannonia has created non-profit research structures, where educational and research work is undertaken and which ensure the relevance of our applied scientific work and technological development with a business approach.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
The University of Pannonia regards building relationships with international partners as an especially important task. We maintain numerous relationships from international mobility programmes to the highest level research partnerships with foreign institutions. Most of our partners are in European countries (Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, The Netherlands, Romania, Spain), but we also have important partners further afield (Australia, Egypt, Japan, USA).
We are considering starting Joint Master’s Programmes in co-operation with international universities as an outstandingly important area, which will promote the mobility of the students between the institutions of the European Higher Education area. The dynamism of the University of Pannonia is well demonstrated by the significant growth in the number of partners. Besides the existing, firmly rooted and well-established relationships with European, American and African partners, we are looking towards Eastern countries, primarily towards China, Vietnam, Russia and the CIS countries.
Part of the process of building our relations is receiving foreign delegations, organising study trips abroad, searching for new scholarships and taking an active part in the twin town relations of Veszprém.
The University of Pannonia is also proud of its Erasmus mobility programme and we have vibrant, well working bilateral agreements with more and more institutions. A growing number of students study abroad as part of their education and they can also spend work placements with foreign companies. Year after year we receive more students from partner countries, primarily from Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Furthermore, we have partner institutions in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Greece, Latvia, The Netherlands, Romania, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Turkey and The United Kingdom. Not only our students, but also our tutors and administrative staff, who are working with the Erasmus mobility programme, have the possibility to take a glance into the life of foreign universities and to learn how they work.
Number of Erasmus partner institutions:
Austria 6
Belgium 2
Bulgaria 3
Croatia 1
The Czech Republic 4
Estonia 1 Finland 6 France 8 Germany 14 Greece 3 Italy 12 Latvia 2
Our university also participates in the Central European Exchange Programme for University Students (CEEPUS), which provides a co-operation opportunity for the higher educational institutions of the Central European region through supporting students and tutor/faculty mobility. The aim of this exchange programme is to enable the universities and colleges of the participating countries to receive visiting lecturers, undertake student exchanges, and enjoy joint participation on language and professional development courses or summer universities. All these can facilitate the extension and strengthening of the relationships between the intellectual communities in Central Europe.
In addition to these mobility programmes, the University of Pannonia participates in other programmes as the scholarships of the International Visegrad Fund, Fulbright Commission, Tempus, Hungarian Scholarship Board, Hungarian Science and Technology Foundation or the Hans Pape Scholarship.
In the academic year of 2013/2014, in the frame of the scholarship programme financed by the Hungarian Government and coordinated by the FAO (Food and Agricultural Organization), 6 international students and with Stipendium Hungaricum 1 international student started his master’s programme - MSc in Agricultural Sciences - at the Georgikon Faculty of the University of Pannonia. Lithuania 1 Poland 11 Portugal 5 Romania 10 Slovakia 4 Slovenia 3 Spain 6 Sweden 1 The Netherlands 1 The United Kingdom 1
STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS
The Students’ Union of the University of Pannonia (PEHÖK) is a democratically elected body representing students’ interests. The most important function and main objective is to represent the students at all levels of decision-making within the university. In accordance with the rights granted in the Hungarian Higher Education Act, it participates in the Senate and Faculty Councils, with one third of the votes, and with at least one person in every permanent or ad hoc committee of the university. Besides this work, the Students’ Union undertakes the organisation of particular events and offers services to students. It has an outstanding role in the management of the students’ financial affairs and it takes part in the operational work of the Halls of Residence.
The Students’ Union was the first in the region to run its own self-developed rented accommodation database. This is for those students who do not get a place in the University’s Halls.
It also organises and supervises the leisure programmes for students and other members of the university: the University Days of Veszprém (VEN) is a tradition dating back more than 50 years; the AKÓ, another similar event in autumn; the Freshers’ Camp of the Veszprém Campus and the Keszthely Campus called Bulektábor, the Freshers’ Balls in Veszprém and in Keszthely, Student Days and Sárgulás, a traditional ceremony for
graduating students, are organised annually. The PEHÖK supports these events and helps to maintain their sense of tradition.
The Students’ Union runs the Committee of International Affairs, the so-called PEHÖK - International Relations Student Office since 1997. Now they work in the following groups: Tender, PR- and programme organiser, CsF team and the ERASMUS team. One of the main programmes organised by them is the Foreign Affairs’ Day (Külügyi Börze) which gives an opportunity for the various international organisations to introduce themselves to the students of the University of Pannonia.
On the one hand, the ERASMUS team, which is a part of the International Relations Student Office, informs the outgoing students, and on the other, they represent the interests of the university’s foreign students. They welcome, accommodate, help to fit in and prompt the official representation of the international students coming here. One of the Office’s most important tasks is introducing incoming students to the Hungarian language and
support of the Office of External Affairs, they organise trips for the ERASMUS students to make their time here more enjoyable. The Office uses a so-called mentor-system. This means that every international student gets a mentor, a Hungarian university student who helps both socially and with official dealings. With their programmes, they give a broader view about the university and Hungary to carry our good reputation worldwide. This formal relationship usually turns into a friendship.
There are a lot of programmes organized by the office. At the beginning of the semester, there is an Orientation Week, which provides a great opportunity for the foreign students to get to know each other, the mentors, the city and the university. The programme includes funny competitions, official meetings with the representatives of the university departments, city-rally and welcome-party.
During the semester, there are a lot of trips organized around Hungary like visiting Budapest, wellness centres, and beautiful Hungarian cities like Győr or Eger. EuroDinner is one of the most popular events among the Erasmus students. Every week a nation is chosen, and students of this nation have to cook for the others to strengthen the multiculturalism in the group.
There are also other student organisations which have an important role in organizing other programmes for student such as conferences, summer schools, job fairs, cultural and exchange programmes.
UNIVERSITY FACILITIES LIBRARIES
The University Library and Archives being a public specialist library with regional and national significance was founded in 1949, at the same time as the establishment of the university.
