Representatives of the University of Sopron, Klaudia Gortva institutional International Coordinator and Vera Tolvaj International Coordinator of the Faculty of Wood Engineering and Creative Industries took part in Begin Group’s ’Eurasia Tour’, introducing the University of Sopron in Baku, Azerbaijan and Tbilisi, Georgia.

These two Education Fairs had more than 1000 participants altogether and presented a prominent opportunity to introduce the University’s English-language study programmes in Economics, Forestry, Wood Engineering and Pedagogy; the recently launched English Preparatory course; and further advantages, such as the Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship programme, guaranteed dormitory placement or the growing palette of student services and free time activities. The Education Fair in Baku also came with a 30-minute presentation opportunity, which drew even more prospective students to the booth of the University of Sopron.

An unexpected – but very much welcomed – addition was the great number of recruitment agencies and local universities in search of partnerships or other forms of cooperation visiting the University’s booth in both locations. The opportunity of potential collaboration with high schools in the area have also been explored and our representatives were invited to make an introductory presentation for the final year students of the British School in Baku.
The timing of the Education Fairs was perfect in regard to the ongoing application period for international students, which is up until 20th November.

We hope to greet many new students from Azerbaijan and Georgia soon!
