On 15–16 October 2026, Széchenyi István University hosted the 7th National Student Research Forum, focusing on “The Future of Student Research: Tradition, Innovation and Competitiveness – The Future of Scientific Talent Development in Hungary.”
The two-day event brought together representatives of Hungarian higher education and the scientific talent development community to discuss how to preserve the strong traditions of student research while adapting to technological developments, changing student expectations, and emerging challenges in higher education.
Key topics included the role of artificial intelligence in student research, changing student motivations, the involvement of international students, and the contribution of student research activities to academic career development.
The Kautz Gyula Faculty of Business and Economics was represented by Dr. Szabolcs Rámháp, Chair of the Faculty Scientific Students’ Council, and Dr. Anna Bende, Secretary of the Council.
The forum provided a valuable opportunity to exchange institutional experiences, share good practices, and contribute to the ongoing dialogue on the future of scientific talent development in Hungary.
