The board of the International Association of Hungarian Studies believes that no national academic discipline can be cultivated in isolation. The Universitas Europae Centralis, founded after the fall of the Socialist Regime, has offered excellent opportunities for Hungarian researchers to locally learn about the latest world trends in human sciences as well as theoretical and methodological results that are also important to ensure progress in Hungarian Studies. The CEU has made a difference by making it possible for the representatives of various Central and Eastern European disciplines that were working once in isolation to engage in dialogue and recognize each other’s work. Since its foundation, the CEU has continuously improved education; its research programmes have been exemplary, and its library has played a significant role in correcting Hungary’s systemic deficiencies in our scientific infrastructure.
