Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) has a wide range of bilateral agreements with universities all over the world. In the framework of Student Exchange programme BME is happy to welcome exchange students from partner universities based on valid bilateral Student Exchange agreement. BME and partner universities can generally accept one or two students per academic year, however, the exact number of participants is specified per partnership.
For applications to be valid, students need to be nominated by their home institution and students have to submit their online registration.
Nominations by sending institutions are accepted for a full academic year (fall and spring semester) but students’ online applications and online course registration can be submitted always only for the coming one semester.
NOTE ON COVID-19
BME is planning to launch the upcoming semester face-to-face but the final decision will depend on the future coronavirus situation.
