Student life in Szeged

Szeged city life

Szeged, known as the "City of Sunshine", is the third largest city situated in the Southern Great Plains of Hungary along the banks of river Tisza. Szeged lies on Hungary's south-eastern border (15 km from the Serbian, and 51 km from Romanian border). It is about 171 km south of capital city Budapest. Szeged is famous among tourists for its lively theater and music shows, paprika, fish soup and wine festivals.

Szeged is an education hub of Eastern Europe. As our campus is situated at the heart of the city, various shopping malls, retail chains, health clubs, hospitals, transportation facilities and other comforts are easily accessible.
