The University of Sopron had the pleasure of welcoming a delegation from the Embassy of the United States of America.
Luke Thompson, Director, Regional Hub Office – Environment, Science, Technology and Health, Tibor Kovács, Science and Health Specialist, and Anett Zellei, Regional Environmental and Scientific Affairs Specialist, were received by Prof. Dr. Ferenc Lakatos, Vice-Rector of International Relations and Research, and Csilla Csipkó, Coordinator of International Affairs. The visit marks an exciting opportunity to strengthen academic and scientific cooperation between the University of Sopron and U.S. institutions. Special attention was given to potential collaborations in the fields of climate change and research on invasive species—both of which are priority areas where shared expertise and joint projects could create real impact.
Following the official meeting, the participants enjoyed a lunch, and participated on a guided tour of the University’s Botanical Garden. This unique natural setting, paired with the University of Sopron’s commitment to sustainability and environmental research, offers a perfect backdrop for innovative scientific collaborations.
We look forward to building a strong and lasting partnership and are excited about the many opportunities for collaboration ahead.
