Introduction

At the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, there are two specialities of engineering training available for regular students: the speciality of electrical enginering and the speciality of technical informatics.

During the five-year training course, the speciality of electrical enginering aims at training qualified electrical engineers with the necessary knowledge of mathematics, physics, system theory, electronics, measurement engineering, informatics, energetics, technology and computer science supplemented by language skills, economic sciences and humanities who are capable to solve design, development, and control problems related to products, production and industrial processes and services as well as dispose of the electrical engineering knowledge required for scientific research.

The speciality of technical informatics provides students with a qualified engineering and informatics expert's degree in the framework of a five-year training course. Having mastered technical, natural scientific, social scientific, and foreign language knowledge together with their professional level of informatics and computer science, engineering and informatics experts are able to develop, maintain and operate technical information systems and services as well as their data- and program systems. Furthermore, they can manage technical-economic activities related to this field and to join the scientific research performed in this special field.

The University provides opportunities to acquire more profound or special knowledge besides the obligatory (basic) knowledge to be mastered, such as engineer-teacher's, special translator's, and management knowledge.

It is possible to join several departmental activities directly in the following ways:

• research work by preparing a project for the Students' Scientific Circle;
• research work by 18 hours/week paid employment,
• educational work in higher years of study.

Scholarships

The departments help the most excellent and active students participate in different conferences and competitions.

Some of the competition possibilities are shown below:

• Conferences of the Students' Scientific Circle are held annually, where 20-25 projects are awarded regularly.
• Our students may go to study trips of 4-12 weeks in increasing numbers via IAESTE and EESTEC.
• There is also a growing number of students participating in training courses at universities abroad, organized by the University, a department, or on individual scholarships.
• Having performed excellent activities, it is possible to apply for TUB public life or professional scholarships.
• With outstanding professional work and study results, students in higher years may apply for the scholarship of the Republic.

Student Hostel

For most of the students coming from the country, student hostel accomodation is provided by the Faculty.

Student hostels are also in the vanguard of organizing students' communal life, hosting a great number of workshops and programs. Excellent communities are subsidized as well.

Sports and culture

During the first two years of study, students can choose from 16 different branches of sport to practice in the obligatory P.E. classes (e.g. horse-riding or badminton), whereas in later years of study, they are allowed to use the gymnasiums and fitness rooms. Horse riding, bicycle, and rowing tours in the summer and skiing tours in the winter are very popular. „Professional" sportsmen can choose from 7 branches of sport in MAFC (e.g. basketball, tennis, football).

The centers of cultural events are student hostels (film and jazz clubs, parties at weekends), but there is also a theatre (SZKÉNÉ) and a symphony orchestra as well at the University. There is also a Publicity Office for organizing cultural events at the University.
