Well-being Center
Well-being matters. Psychological flourishing matters even better.
The goal of the GTK Well-being Center is to empower its employees to live their daily work and career years to the full in a positive and supportive atmosphere.
We aim to contribute to this by providing support with the tools of work and organizational psychology: whether it is about strengthening psychological resources, workplace factors affecting mental health, the quality of workplace relationships – the GTK Well-being Center aims to provide guidance and solutions to help solve individual and collective issues, to successfully implement projects, to achieve individual work goals or to fulfil one’s leadership role with success.
Building and strengthtening a positive psychological climate and a culture of workplace happiness is the result of a long-term collaborative process. It benefits greatly from the insights, feedback and active contribution of all colleagues: this is how we can get on the ’same wavelength of success’.
The GTK Well-being Center aims to promote well-being at individual and organisational level. We look forward to everyone being a part of this!

What does the GTK Wellbeing Centre not do?
Our psychological well-being depends on certain areas that are vital to our well-being, that cannot be supported by the tools of work and organisational psychology (e.g. material well-being). For advocacy issues, contacting the Trade Union of Higher Education Employees is recommended (https://fdsz.bme.hu). For our students, the BME Student Services is available in case of individual psychological well-being issues, self-awareness development needs or soft skill trainings (https://hszi.bme.hu/en/Counseling/psychological-counseling).
