On September 4, 2025, the University of Sopron hosted its very first Orientation Day, an event designed to become a new tradition – and it was immediately a great success among first-year students.

The ceremonial opening of the University of Sopron new academic year is always a special event: it marks not only the beginning of the educational period but also a moment to reinforce shared values and goals. This year, more than 1,500 new students are starting the 2025/26 academic year at the institution.

A unique program supported by the European Space Agency (ESA) has started at the University of Sopron. Within the framework of the HunEdu project, a one-week training course based on the principle of “training the trainers” focuses on the modern processing of data collected by satellites.

International experts are sharing their knowledge with Hungarian educators and researchers, who will then prepare future professionals to make use of opportunities offered by space technology. Together with other Hungarian universities, the University of Sopron is preparing to launch a unique practical training program aimed at establishing world-class Earth Observation engineering education in Hungary.
