The Rector's
Office, which is headed
by the Secretary
General, carries out the managing tasks
in connection with the central
administrative, educational,
international and research work of
the university.
The Financial and
Technical Management is
responsible for solving the tasks
connected to the following areas:
budget planning, financial issues in relation to
the money supplying function of the supervising
body, cashflow, budget management, resources, human resource management, financial management, reports, accounting, data supply prescribed
by legislation for budgeting institutions,
and internal control of economic
processes.
The Centre of
Distance and Vocational Education offers a number of short courses,
both on a post-secondary and post-graduate level. In general, short
non-degree courses are becoming more popular. Having Recognised the need for new
types of studies, the University
is getting more involved in distance education.
Besides several shorter courses and pre-university studies, some degree
courses can be taken in this
form. Being the North Transdanubian Centre for distance education,
the University satisfies regional needs in this
field.
The scientific communications of the Széchenyi István University of Applied Sciences
are issued in the Hungarian
Electronic Journal of Sciences (http://heja.szif.hu). The purpose of the
Journal is to present the results of
research conducted at the University
and, while ensuring the possibility
of quick, referred electronic publishing, at both national and
international levels, to improve the
quantity and quality of publication
activity of educational staff.
In 2000 the Hungarian
Satellite Centre of the International Mc Leod Institute
of Simulation Sciences was established at the Széchenyi István University of Applied Sciences.
The Satellite Centre is a member
of the distributed
international research and education institute
with centres in 14 countries distributed around the World ranging from the American continent
through Europe to the Far East.
The aim of the interna-tional institute working in form of
a chain of centres of excellence
is to undertake re-search and education
in the field
of computer simulation. This means that
beyond the exchange of simulation
software and scientific results it seeks
to co-operate in interna-tional scientific projects. Since the centres
are located at universities in the various
countries, seeks - beyond the education
provided locally at the individual
places - to provide curricula and international M.Sc. as
well as Ph.D. degrees in simulation sci-ences
in which the individual centres will participate.
The Central Library is the information centre for specialist literature in the University,
but it also
operates as a public technical library in the
Transdanubia region. Its collection contains Hungarian and foreign books
connected to the specialist areas taught at
the University of Applied Sciences.
Today its holdings amount to 200,000 books
and 550 periodicals.
The Centre of
Physical Education and Sports is an independent educational organisational unit of the University
and it consists
of the physical
education teachers and the staff
looking after the sport fields and buildings. The centre is responsible for the students' health
education. It supervises the teaching of physical
education, sets the subject requirements,
prepares students for meeting the
requirements, tests students' achievements, making the best
use of the
University's facilities.
The University is built next to the
river Moson-Danube, so there are
many possibilities for swimming and
rowing.
The Students'
Halls Of Residence is one of the biggest
hostels operating in Hungary. It provides accommodation for 1,300 students
in rooms for three. It
has a nice riverbank location which makes it suitable
to accommodate paying guests as
well, especially in summer. It
is convenient for sport camps, student camps and conferences.
The Student
Self-Government represents
the interests of the students
at each level
and in each
body of the
University of Applied Sciences. The Student Self-Government as-serts the students'
legal rights, decides on the
allocation of state support and
assists in dealing with the
educational and social concerns of the students.
