What our students tell about studying at the University of Debrecen?  “Studying at the University of Debrecen is much more than acquiring knowledge. Just during my first year I already made life-long friendships, got to play handball with the Medical faculty team and was able to experience research first-hand. The facilities are well equipped to fully deliver the lectures and practices which makes learning easier and straightforward. The community life and the support from the senior students are also a strong point at the University. I couldn't have chosen a better University to study at.”Felipe Salignac Brasil, Brazil, Medicine “It is fascinating to me how people from completely different backgrounds can have so much in common.
