Students enrolled in the Sports Diplomacy programme at Széchenyi István University recently took part in a professional study trip to Barcelona. During the three-day programme, they gained deeper insight into Spanish and Catalan sports life, sports diplomacy relations, institutional structures, and the practices of professional sports communication, all under the leadership of Dr Barnabás Kovács, former Consul General of Hungary in Barcelona and founder and head of the programme.

During her visit to the Győr campus on 15 May, Her Excellency Eva Dvořáková, Ambassador of the Czech Republic to Hungary, learned about Széchenyi István University’s educational and research activities, internationalisation efforts, and potential areas of cooperation. The Ambassador expressed her appreciation for the institution’s strategy and development.

This year, the National Media and Infocommunications Authority (NMHH) is contributing HUF 110 million to support Széchenyi István University’s activities in telecommunications, infocommunications, digitalisation education, and research and development. The authority has maintained an excellent relationship with the institution for many years, and thanks to this support, the University will be able to offer even more scientific opportunities to its students, lecturers, and researchers.
