WITH the Green University Program of the University of Pécs
Short description
The idea of the “Green University” is a complex system including built environment, ecologically conscious operation and maintenance, the formation of related attitudes and the creation of an educational and research background.
Background
The past year has been a challenge for all of us, in which we have learned a lot about ourselves, our environment, our ability to adapt to change.
The University of Pécs wishes to draw attention to the moments and events in mid-March with its photo contest, which, despite the period of trials, meant a positive change, an experience, in our daily lives.
Our goal is to shine a spotlight on the positive, soul-lifting experiences we have experienced despite the epidemic situation, which help us through difficulties.
The University of Pécs was ranked 155th in the international ranking of higher education institutions in nearly 50 developing countries, based in London. With this position, the UP became the best Hungarian rural university, as in the same ranking of previous years.
