All the degrees provided by the state universities in Budapest, Szeged and Pécs are accredited by the Hungarian Accreditation Board. 
Hungary joined the European Union on May 1, 2004. As a full member of the EU, the country enjoys equal status to the other member states. It means among others that the degrees granted by the Hungarian universities are automatically recognized in all EU-countries. The EU directives list a few professions with common educational criteria. These are medicine, veterinary medicine, pharmacy and dentistry. Such professional qualifications must be recognized without any licensing examinations. (Certain language skills can be required, though.) The EU-recognition applies only to the nationals of the member states. For recognition in other countries contact the local representative. |
