The Faculty of Economic and Social Sciences (GTK) has played a prominent role in BME’s outstanding success in the latest EELISA<\/strong> (European Engineering Learning Innovation and Science Alliance) Joint Academic Call<\/strong>. Two of the university’s eight coordinated projects are led by GTK colleagues<\/strong>, Dr. M\u00e1t\u00e9 Z\u00f6ldy and Dr. P\u00e9ter Zrubecz, highlighting the Faculty’s strong contribution to the university’s international educational achievements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Overall, the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) will coordinate eight of the 35 selected projects while participating in four additional initiatives<\/strong>, making it the most active institution among the alliance’s member universities. Supported by a total budget of \u20ac237,000, the call funds a wide range of innovative educational collaborations across the EELISA alliance, such as the development of innovative, ECTS-accredited educational activities aimed at strengthening collaboration among EELISA\u2019s ten partner universities. As Hungary’s representative in the alliance, BME plays a leading role in advancing new educational initiatives with a strong international focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the most significant results is the approval of three new joint degree initiatives. BME participates in all three and serves as the lead institution in two of them: EELISA-CE (Circular Economy) and City Design and Development MSc, developed in cooperation with partner universities in Madrid and Paris.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, BME will coordinate projects focusing on digital transformation, artificial intelligence, mobility studies, structural engineering, construction information technology, and micro-credential programmes. Several further initiatives involve collaboration with leading institutions such as Friedrich-Alexander-Universit\u00e4t Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg (FAU), Universidad Polit\u00e9cnica de Madrid (UPM), and the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The selected projects will further expand EELISA’s academic portfolio, strengthen international cooperation, and create new mobility and learning opportunities for students and staff across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations to all BME coordinators, lead applicants, and their teams on their excellent achievement and their successful projects.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
