Studying and living abroad can feel exciting—but also confusing at times, but you don’t have to navigate everything on your own. The Stipendium Hungaricum Mentor Network (SHMN) is here to help you connect with others, feel supported, and make the most of your time in Hungary. And if you’ve been here for a while, you can even become a mentor and guide newcomers on their journey.
In November, Dr Gergely Endrődi, professor at Eötvös Loránd University and a leading expert on early-universe physics, presented at the Alumni Hungary Webinar series. After returning to Hungary with support from the Research Grant Hungary programme, he continues to explore how high-performance simulations reveal the universe’s first moments — and why this knowledge still matters today.
Join the Alumni Network Hungary (ANH) webinar to learn how the Stipendium Hungaricum Mentor Network (SHMN) helps you make the most of your time in Hungary — from academic support to cultural adventures, and everything in between! You’ll also learn how to become a mentor yourself and support other international students on their Hungarian journey.
We spend nearly a third of our lives asleep — yet those silent hours shape our health, emotions, and creativity. In the October Alumni Network Hungary webinar, Prof. Róbert Bódizs, Ph.D., a leading sleep and neuroscience expert from the Institute of Behavioural Sciences at Semmelweis University, explored how understanding our dreams and sleep can deepen self-knowledge and enhance wellbeing. Read our interview with him.
