On 11 March, the Hungarian Ambassador to Vienna got acquainted with the international activities of Széchenyi István University, the Innovation Park in Zalaegerszeg and the ZalaZone test track, which is part of the Széchenyi University Group. The diplomat believes that the research and development activities there represent new opportunities for Hungarian-Austrian relations.

Széchenyi István University concluded a research-development and educational cooperation agreement with Pick Handball Zrt. and Győri ETO-UNI FKC. In the framework of the partnership the institution puts digitalisation at the service of sport and develops data-driven services that contribute to the improvement of the performance of athletes.

Nearly five and a half thousand people applied to Széchenyi István University in the first place this year, almost beating last year’ record numbers. Thus the institution has confirmed its place among the best higher education institutions in Hungary. The figures show that young people are positive about the university's courses of high standards and its European-standard infrastructure.
