General information on the chemistry MSc program can be found on the internet at the following levels:
Note, that these pages may not be completely in accord with each other. Ask for help, if in doubt. Whom to approach?:
- Péter Molnár (study coordinator at the Faculty level, sh@ttk.elte.hu)
- Zsuzsa Éva Hardy (study administrator at the Faculty level, hardy.zsuzsa@ttk.elte.hu; study administration is abbreviated “TO” in hungarian; the TO homepage ELTE TO is unfortunately in hungarian, still you may have to use it occasionally)
- Katalin Sinkó (program coordinator at the level of the Institute, room 352 in the Chemistry building, katalin.sinko@ttk.elte.hu)
- mentor offered by the Students Union at the National level, see more at SH Mentor
Direct links to some useful documents:
- Academic regulations for students (abbreviated “HKR” in hungarian): HKR
- Schedule plan (curriculum) of studies applying to you: Plan
- The training language is English.” at the page
- Electronic course administration system: at this website, timetable information should be available in this (There exists an alternative timetable query page at the level of the Faculty: at this website in hungarian only.)
Some rules relevant for your studies:
- Courses are arranged in the following blocks: I basic science courses, II compulsory chemistry courses, III special courses in chemistry (choice is restricted to the list in the curriculum), IV master thesis, V special course in any discipline, with completely free choice;
- Number of credits altogether 120
- It is advisable to take a workload of 30 credits per semester in order to complete the training in 2 years
- Should an extension of the studies become necessary, application has to be submitted to the Tempus foundation (usually in the spring, in a definite time interval)
Further notes and suggestions:
The MSc Materials Science curriculum involves a considerable flexibility. At the same time you yourself are the only person responsible for collecting the proper number of credits in each block. You are supposed to devise a plan for yourself before each semester, enumerating courses that you wish to complete. Making this plan may take a lot of effort, since you have to watch for course availability and number of credits block by block. Do not leave making this plan to the last minute. During the registration week you are supposed to resolve all time overlaps that unavoidably occur and make adjustments to your plan. Your own timetable will take a shape by the end of the registration week
Courses are identified by name and by code. Codes, course names, number of credits per course, number of obligatory credits by block etc. may change from one curriculum to the other. Stick to those, indicated in your curriculum. A great deal of trouble can be spared by watching for these carefully.
You are supposed to register on courses in the neptun system at NEPTUN You can select among lecture courses offered either in English or in Hungarian language.
There is a minimal limit of registered students for many courses to start at all. Moreover, lecturers prefer to accept more than just one English speaking students in a given semester. It is hence helpful to learn of each others’ interest and register for courses of common interest in the same semester.
