Education in economics has a decades-long history at the University of Sopron, where we are building the future. The world is changing, and we need to adapt to these changes. Our main goal is to provide our students with marketable knowledge that will allow them to adapt flexibly to the needs of the labour market in the future. Professional knowledge, foreign language proficiency, and a digital environment orientation are essential. We offer courses at several levels: bachelor’s (BA, BSc) master’s (MA, MSc), and doctorate (PhD).
A potential economist considers options when selecting a study programme and sees cost recovery as an investment. My colleagues and I are working to ensure that degrees obtained in the Faculty of Economics open the “gates” of the labour market for all ur graduates. Graduates can create value through the knowledge they have gained – value for their professional careers, jobs and businesses.
The educational and scientific system of the Alexandre Lámfalussy Faculty of Economics maintains a high professional standard and a student-oriented focus. Our Economists Club and the Tourism Club also “bring home” the best cultivators in the field. In recent years, our students and lecturers have won many national awards and recognitions. Our unique environment and student-centred education, here human relationships also convey value, makes all of this possible. In addition to our excellent professional training, we value foreign language skills as another key to success, which is why we offer our students free language learning opportunities through four optional semesters. Our corporate and institutional relationships provide practical, flexible training and hands-on opportunities.
We have a wide range of international connections, which we are constantly expanding to meet your needs. As part of study mobility, we offer scholarship semesters at more than 30 European universities through ERASMUS + and CEEPUS. Through a cooperation agreementwith the German FOM University of Applied Sciences and the Finnish University of Applied Sciences Seinäjoki, we have established an internationally accepted joint degree. Our student-friendly learning plan ensures that students enjoy leisure time during their studies and internships.
The university is a knowledge community of creative people, where we offer our students a partnership that respects each other’s values and knowledge.
Let’s build the future together!

The István Széchenyi Economics and Management Doctoral School is honoured by your expressed interest in the programs and training it offers. According to the Law on Higher Education, we administer the highest level of university study (PhD education) within the frameworks of organized or individual preparation. In 1993, doctoral degrees (PhDs) were entrusted to universities, and only accredited doctoral schools can issue doctoral degrees. The Doctoral School at the Alexandre Lámfalussy Faculty of Economics at the University of Sopron is among these doctoral degree-granting institutions. Though the doctoral school has a relatively short history, it has produced excellence in the field of doctoral studies as can be seen by the significant number of enrolled students who successfully complete doctoral training and earn a PhD degree each year. In addition to Hungarian students, a number of foreign students enroll in the school every year. Instructors and supervisors hold courses in Hungarian as well as English and German. Depending on the level of interest, the school offers five programs (business administration and management, international economy, marketing, finance, and the social and economic aspects of human resources), all of which can be studied in the languages mentioned above and through different forms of training (daytime, correspondent, individual). The PhD course usually attracts individuals wishing to pursue careers in higher education and/or scientific workshops. A significant number of professionals from other fields (business organizations, domestic and international institutions, organizations) are also enrolled in PhD studies and are successfully completing PhD degrees.
Since 2016, the duration of the doctoral program is 4 years, which is divided into segments of 2 + 2 years. There is a comprehensive examination at the end of the fourth active semester, which is followed by two years of research and publication. In addition to our four-year doctoral training, we also welcome second and third-year students from the three-year International Cross Border PhD Programs (e.g. Croatia, Czech, Slovakia) who fulfil their first year of study at the University of Applied Sciences in Eisenstadt, Austria. This joint PhD program in International Economic Relations and Management takes place within the international cooperation framework.
The Doctoral School is also an evaluation centre for habilitation applications submitted to the University of Sopron and it conducts the habilitation procedure for habilitation applications belonging to the profile of the Doctoral School. The habilitated doctoral title (Dr. habil) serves primarily to judge the educational and scientific performances of colleagues with a PhD degree in higher education. The granting of this title is an indispensable condition for university teacher applications.
The attached menu items provide detailed information about the doctoral studies we offer. The Doctoral School administration is also ready to provide further information and assistance if required. We are confident you will appreciate our doctoral programs, and we hope to welcome you to the Doctoral School as a student or as a habilitation candidate.
