Another group of visitors from Hungary adds to establishing international connections
As we wrote earlier this month, Yugra state university hosted a delegation from Hungary whose cultural and educational programme was much appreciated in the university and the city. The director of Hungarian cultural, scientific and information centre in Moscow, the Councellor of the embassy of Hungary in Russia, Andras Baranyi came to Khanty-Mansiysk with the Kovacs sisters, famous folk singers and musicians. The visit was rich with events: new agreements between the university and the centre were signed, our Study room of Hungarian received study materials, and the students had a chance to listen to Hungarian folk songs (and sing some local ones in return) and watch a film in Hungarian.
Now, in the end of the month, a group of representatives of Hungarian universities is ready to answer our students' questions and tell the audience why te local dialect of the Khanty language is studied in Hungary.
"Thus we may call this June a month of Hungary in our university", says our Head of the International cooperation department. She adds that the students and post-graduate students of the University of Szeged and Eötvös Loránd University have been to our university before to conduct scientific research and exchange experience. Our university has agreements of cooperation with these two universities.
Upd from 1 June
