INSTITUTIONAL EXCELLENCE PROGRAM FOR THE HIGHER EDUCATION – ASTRO- AND PARTICLE PHYSICS

As one of the winners of the Institutional Excellence Program for the Higher Education, our institute has been given the opportunity to broaden its research areas, expand international relations, train Hungarian excellence in astrophysics and particle physics, and strengthen and build further collaborations abroad. Thanks to the programme, we are expanding our toolbox, participating as speakers in internationally renowned conferences and strengthening our research capacity, thus continuously increasing the visibility of our research both nationally and internationally. With this support, we have published more than 100 papers in Q1 journals. A further 8 national and international grants in this field broaden our research opportunities. Our research groups attract a large number of foreign students and researchers to our university. As members of CERNRHICLIGO and soon LSST, we are and will be part of the greatest discoveries of our time.
