"I made significant progress in my profession and made many new friends. I also had a lot of experiences along with my degree," recalls Jawad Mustafa about his years spent in Győr, and who graduated a few months ago with a Master's degree in infrastructure engineering from Széchenyi István University. After half a decade in the job market, the young Iraqi decided to continue his studies in the city of rivers, and he says even today he would not have done things differently.

An Uzbek student from Széchenyi István University has won the prize for the best presentation in English at a professional conference on business informatics. The success is not only an example of the institution's traditional strength in technical and computer science disciplines, but also of the great strides it has made in recent years in internationalisation, with a student community composed of young people from 65 countries.
