EU Council decision blocking 21 Hungarian universities
The Centre for Social Sciences is not operated as a public interest fund and is not affected by the EU Council rule of law conditionality decision linked to Erasmus and Horizon Europe funding. We are able to participate in proposals and receive funding in both of these EU funding programmes without any restrictions.
Four new international research projects are to launch
Four proposals submitted by researchers of the Centre for Social Sciences have recently received funding from the EU.
In solidarity with Ukraine
The Centre for Social Sciences expresses its strong condemnation of the Russian aggression against the sovereign state of Ukraine.
We declare our full solidarity with the people of Ukraine and with the Ukrainian academic community.
The Centre for Social Sciences seeks to provide assistance to fellow academicians and the people of Ukraine.
