This video will walk you through the application process to the University of Miskolc in Hungary, one of Central Europe’s hidden gems for international students!
Submitting your application is simple and fully online! Just click the “Apply Now” button to get started.
No, it’s not because we’re trying to meet your whole family! In Hungary, your mother’s name is an official part of your identity and helps with things like residence permits, bank accounts, and other official processes.
If you’re eligible, you’ll take a short online oral exam where we test your motivation and English skills. Think of it as a friendly quiz to show off what you know. Don’t worry, all the tips and requirements are on the programme’s website, so you won’t be flying blind!
Absolutely! No need to panic, if you studied in English at high school or university, just show us an official Medium of Instruction. UM happily accepts this, along with IELTS, TOEFL, or any equivalent certificate.
First, pay your tuition to get your Final Letter of Acceptance, your golden ticket to Hungary! Then grab your Hungarian VISA and come to UM for registration week, and let your international mentor help you settle in and explore the campus.
TIMREX, launched in 2022 as part of an educational project, responds to the EIT RawMaterials call for a master’s programme in mineral resources exploration. The TIMREX MSc programme aims to train earth science specialists, primarily geologists and geological engineers, to meet the EU’s mineral resource exploration needs.
Building on existing strong MSc programmes in minerals exploration, TIMREX offers joint education with additional entrepreneurship skills. A gap analysis revealed that mineral resources exploration, with a focus on field activities and sustainability performance, is missing from the portfolio of EIT-Labelled master programmes. The consortium, led RIS-universities, will involve non-academic partners in programme’s development and implementation.
Partner universities:
These goals will be achieved through three main competence-development pillars of the project:
Campus-based MSc programmes with at least one-semester mobility windows or double degree schemes between the university partners. The cohort starting in September 2022 will go along the mobility window scheme for all universities. Double or joint degree schemes will be established at UNIZG-RGNF, UM and WUST during 2022. From September 2023, a hybrid mobility system using double or joint degree schemes in different configurations will apply. LTU will primarily cooperate on the mobility window basis. Each partner’s T-shaped curriculum will include core earth science disciplines focused on mineral exploration. Innovation and entrepreneurship competences will follow a modular system, complementing semester courses and partly delivered through intensive fieldwork modules of Pillar 2.
Intensive fieldwork during the summer period between M1 and M2 academic years. This will be a hallmark of the TIMREX programme, offering a more intensive joint education activity compared to other labelled programmes. The summer period will include 7-8 weeks of fieldwork for students at exploration camps in Sweden and Hungary, as well as internship at companies.
Entrepreneurship, innovative and socio-civic skills development, utilizing the EFG’s mentoring programme and SME and RTO partners of the consortium.
Graduates with these professional qualifications are well suited for mining and exploration companies, research institutes and specialized authorities dealing with the management, planning and regulation of mineral raw materials. The graduates’ strong engineering training combined with earth sciences knowledge prepares them for careers in mineral exploration, exploitation and the supervision of earth science technologies.

Our faculty has a history of more than 300 years, which proves the continuous demand for our professionals. Due to the developing economy, the demand for raw materials, energy and water is increasing, thus the mining industry must also adapt. In the near future, global challenges such as low carbon dioxide emissions, circular economy, water mining or environmentally friendly mining must be solved. The professors and researchers of our faculty prepare our students for these challenges and their solutions.
