Overview

John von Neumann University, based in Kecskemét, is one of the youngest tertiary educational institutions in Hungary. However, the university’s legal predecessors have a history going back many years and boast longstanding traditions. It received the title University of Applied Sciences in 2016, since when it has become the leading higher education institute in the region.

With almost 4,000 students, we offer programmes in technical sciences, economics, agriculture; achieve significant results in terms of research and innovation; and foster extensive business and institutional networks. Building on our dynamically expanding international connections, we aim to achieve greater visibility in the globalised world of higher education.

The university is one of the most important educational, scientific and cultural centres in the Southern Great Plain Region, with three faculties:

• GAMF Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science
• Faculty of Economics and Business
• Faculty of Horticulture and Rural Development

The university is linked to the regional economy by thousand links, which can effectively build not only on educational but also on research and development activities of the institution. It already cooperates with more than 60 companies in the field of dual training.
