Erasmus for Incoming Students

ERASMUS is the European Union’s flagship ‘mobility’ programme in education and training and one of the best-known EU-level actions. It was established in 1987 and since then has enabled more than 2 million students from across Europe to pursue enriching learning experiences in other countries.

What’s in a name?

The programme is named after the philosopher, theologian and humanist Erasmus of Rotterdam (1465–1536), known as an opponent of dogmatism.

Erasmus lived and worked in several parts of Europe, in quest of the knowledge, experience and insights which only such contacts with other countries could bring. By leaving his fortune to the University of Basel, he became a precursor of mobility grants.

The acronym ERASMUS may also be read as EuRopean Community Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students.

The ERASMUS Programme, together with a number of other education and training programmes, was incorporated into the Socrates Programme which was established in 1995. Socrates was replaced with the Socrates II Programme in January 2000. That, in turn, was replaced by the Lifelong Learning Programme (2007–2013) from 2007.

Our university’s history looks back to more than 25 years. It was established in 1993 as the College of Modern Business Studies  in Tatabánya. It is a young and dynamic institution with rapidly developing international relations. It is a strategic aim of Edutus University to further deepen and widen our network of international cooperation.

Today, the university maintains bilateral contacts and cooperation agreements with 55 institutions of higher education from 25 countries in the world. Our partners are mostly European but we also have cooperation agreements with universities in China, Kazahstan and Nepal. Cooperation agreements cover student and teacher exchange schemes, joint research and publication, as well as organising and providing courses for students.

Within Europe, the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union plays a significant role in the cross-border cooperation while the university is also a member of the regional CEEPUS mobility programme.

Ok. This was easy so far. Generally, you have two options to get into the city (not counting if you have a local friend who picks you up at the airport). Taking an official Taxi or taking public transport.

Taxi: This is the most easy and convenient way. The downside is that the arrival area is full with scammers/hyenas. Make sure you take the official taxi and not to take the first offer from shady guys (this is a thing, really, so please take care). Official Taxi booth is just outside the terminal (2 meters) on your left with a queue, english speaking operator and an attractive lady to show you your taxi. Official Taxis are yellow. You can pay with credit card and there is an official rate in Budapest for taxies. It is hard to estimate the final fare, but as a ballpark, it should be between 6000 and 10000 HUF to the major hotels in the city center, but it is really depending on your destination and the traffic. There is more on Budapest Taxis in the Transportation section below. This is just a quick survival guide to get into the city.

Public Transport: So either you are an adventurous guy and want the feel the post-communist breeze and get in touch with the locals or you are low on budget. Anyways, there is a public bus service from the Airport to the city. The bus stop is located on the arrival level and the bus number is 100E or 200E depending on the time. It is a bit tricky if you arrive during non-regular hours (see details here), but during the day it is easy. The bus 200E will take you to “Kőbánya-Kispest  Metro 3 terminal from where you can easily go into the city center. If you take the 200E bus you will need one ticket for the bus and another one for the Metro. Tickets can be purchased on the bus for approx 450 Forints (local money is required) and from vending machines at the Metro station for 350 HUF. From 2017 there is a new bus line to link the airport and the city center: 100E (see schedule here). The tickets on this line costs 900 HUF (cca 3,- euro) and it will take you directly to Deak Ferenc tér, which is – basically – the heart of the city.

There is more on Budapest Public Transportation in the Transportation section below. Again, this is a quick survival guide to get into the city.
