Focusing on innovation in forestry, wood industry, and international climate research, the University of Sopron is actively developing its partnerships. The university’s research also contributes to the European Union’s vision of ensuring sustainable prosperity. Through its strong economic and scientific collaborations, the University of Sopron plays a key role both nationally and internationally.

As we embark on 2025 with renewed energy, the University of Sopron remains committed to its "Green University" vision, guided by the principles of sustainability. Our institution takes great pride in the progress we have made, particularly with the launch of the trademark-protected "Sound of Earth University of Sopron" (SOE-MP) Sustainability Implementation Program in 2024.

This comprehensive initiative provides a structured and system-oriented framework for advancing sustainability in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through carefully designed work packages, activity areas, and systemic elements, the SOE-MP ensures the continuous improvement of sustainability-related performance across the university.

Nearly a thousand international students applied to the University of Sopron within the framework of the Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship program. Compared to last year, this represents a 300-student increase. The success of the University of Sopron is demonstrated by the fact that students from 33 countries are currently studying at this significant university in the western part of the country.

On December 6th, the International Office of the University organized an advent bus trip for international students. The itinerary included Gloggnitz – the Maria Schutz Basilica – and the Johannesbachklamm Advent Market.
