Dear Prospective CEU Student

CEU is a US-style graduate university with a focus on the social sciences and the humanities, accredited both in the United States and in Hungary, and located in Budapest, in the heart of Europe. The university is oriented to interdisciplinary research on, and the study of, social change and the policy implications of transition to open societies. In addition, emphasis is placed on European Union affairs, as well as on the special features of non-Western democracies.

Through their international experience at CEU, and exposure to a multitude of different—and sometimes opposing—points of view, students at this university develop a deep understanding of the intellectual and practical challenges arising along the shifting boundary between the local and the universal. They leave CEU with the knowledge and skills that enable them to pursue careers in academia, government and the non-governmental sector, international organizations and research institutes, missions of the United Nations, as well as business at the national and the international level.

Today CEU graduates reside in more than 80 countries, across all continents. Among them there are ministers and ambassadors, professors and scientists, research analysts, lawyers and human rights activists, CEOs and managers. They share a common interest in critical reflection and social engagement, and contribute to the university’s mission to be in the service of pressing and challenging social needs.

Continuing both its mission and the successful professional paths of its more than 5,000 graduates, the university seeks to attract applicants from this region and far beyond, extending its welcome to students from Asia, Africa, South and North America. In CEU’s small but densely international graduate community, young scholars experience a multi-cultural, socially-engaged, higher learning environment not only conducive to the exploration of new ideas but also to the formation of new friendships, the latter the basis of the university’s active and supportive graduate network.

I welcome you to this innovative and dynamic community.

Your

President and Rector
