The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the student performances, which added a truly special touch to the event. Tian Yuyang, a talented third-year student from China, mesmerized the audience with his flawless rendition of “Rain All Night.” His performance was so polished and captivating that it left everyone wondering why such a gifted artist hadn’t performed in previous years. Following him was Adaluz Suárez González, whose performance—just like last year—left a lasting impression on everyone in the room.

A new and exciting addition this year was the group game organized by Stipendium Hungaricum mentor Hebatollah,  which brought even more energy and fun to the event. The winners of the game were given festive gifts, adding an extra element of excitement to the evening.

The night was filled with laughter, dancing, and joy, thanks to the interactive Hungarian folk dance led by the Perkáta folk dance group (VELED az ifjúságért). Their lively performance had everyone on their feet, creating an infectious sense of happiness and camaraderie that spread throughout the building.

University of Dunaújváros (UoD) participated for the first time in Morocco at the international student recruitment fair held in Casablanca, organised by a² International Education Fairs. This participation represents an important step in expanding the university’s international presence, as the region had not previously been among the institution’s targeted recruitment locations. The event provided an excellent opportunity for UoD to strengthen its visibility in a new and promising area.

The fair, which attracted over 1,500 visitors, generated significant interest in the university’s stand. Many attendees came specifically with the intention of pursuing higher education in Hungary and sought information in person about study programs, scholarships, and university services. Personal presence proved particularly valuable following the university’s recent years of online recruitment, as it allowed direct engagement with prospective international students.

The fair was not only successful in reaching potential students but also in expanding international connections. The university’s first collaboration with the organisers of a² International Education Fairs offered valuable experience and opportunities to establish contacts with representatives from other institutions.

Overall, the UoD’s presence in Morocco strengthens the university’s internationalisation efforts and lays the groundwork for further collaborations, as well as increasing interest from the region.

The University of Dunaújváros held its Scientific Week between 10–12 November 2025, and on the third day, the International Relations Directorate organized the second Pannónia Day as part of the university’s Career Day.

On 14 November, thirty students from the University of Dunaújváros embarked on an enriching cultural excursion to the historic city of Pécs. The trip offered an exceptional opportunity for students to explore the beauty, traditions, and history that shape one of Hungary’s most remarkable cities.

 

The first stop of the day was the iconic Pécs TV Tower. Standing high above the clouds, the tower offered breathtaking panoramic views of the entire region. Students were captivated by the scenery, expressing admiration for Hungary’s natural and architectural beauty visible from such an extraordinary height.

 

Thanks to the support of International Relations Directorate all entrance tickets, meals, drinks, and transportation were fully arranged, allowing students to enjoy a comfortable and well-organized experience throughout the day.

 

Following the tower visit, the group headed to the vibrant city centre, where they entered one of Pécs’s most significant historical sites:The Downtown Candlemas Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Under the guidance of Dr. Falus Orsolya, students learned about the rich and diverse history of Pécs, as well as the cultural layers reflected in this unique church. The visit left a lasting impression on everyone, as the beauty and atmosphere of the landmark highlighted the deep historical roots of the region.
