HUNGARY:
Budapest Semester in Mathematics
The Budapest Semester in Mathematics program operates on the College
International Campus of the Technical University of Budapest, located
near the historic city center of Budapest, a city of two million
and the nation's capital. Hungary has a long tradition of excellence
in mathematics education, and the Budapest Semester provides students
of mathematics a unique opportunity to study under the tutelage
of eminent Hungarian scholar-teachers from Eotvos University and
the Mathematical Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.
All courses are taught in English in small groups and comprise a
wide-selection in mathematics along with non-mathematical options
including European History, Film and Drama, and three levels of
Hungarian language. Students take three or four math courses and
two intercultural courses including intensive Hungarian. Housing
options include either a homestay or renting a furnished apartment
shared with other program participants. The cost of living is very
low, and students normally find the extensive cultural life of Budapest,
including music and theatre, as well as restaurant meals to be easily
affordable. Budapest is well situated for travel throughout Eastern
and Central Europe and students are encouraged to avail themselves
of the reasonable fares and opportunity to travel throughout Hungary
and neighboring countries. Eligibility: One semester of either advanced
calculus (or first theory course in analysis) or abstract algebra.
