The first-ever Stipendium Hungaricum Excellence Award Gala took place at the historic Festetics Palace in Budapest, celebrating exceptional academic and community achievements of international scholarship holders in Hungary. A total of 48 outstanding students from 25 institutions and 32 countries were recognized across three award categories, showcasing the diversity and strength of the Stipendium Hungaricum community.

Accepting the invitation was a significant step for UoS, particularly as the University currently does not have an active ESN section.
