The aim of the ICEF organization is to provide expert services to the international education sector in order to develop global student mobility. Its main activity is organizing events that help B2B networking between companies dealing with student recruitment and higher education institutions, and support their international marketing activities.
This year, between October 30 and November 1, 2022, ICEF's biggest event was held in Berlin. At the 3-day event our University was represented in person by Dr. Zoltán Szabó, Director of Center for Foreign Affairs, and Vera Tolvaj, international coordinator from the Faculty of Wood Engineering and Creative Industries, while international coordinator Katalin Krajczár-Sári joined the event online.
The importance of the event is shown by the fact that 2,500 participants representing 1,600 organizations from 100 different countries of the world showed up. On the first day of the event, in the sections following the opening, the participants could listen to high-quality professional presentations, followed by the most important 2 days of the event, when UoS representatives held personal and online negotiations with representatives of student recruiting companies (e.g. from Argentina, India, Nepal, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Morocco, etc.)
Since the University of Sopron has set itself the goal of increasing the number of international students, as a result of about 50 negotiations were conducted by the colleagues, from which new prosperous partner contracts will be obtained with student recruitment companies, in order to help future applicants from all over the world to enroll in our university's programmes in English.
