In recent days, our colleagues, faculty, and students have shown just what MOME is capable of when faced with a crisis. This week, volunteers from MOME have been working in Vác, helping fill sandbags to support official agencies in their flood defence efforts along the frontlines. With the emergency situation expected to last several more days, every helping hand is needed, and MOME is once again showing that its strengths lie not only in knowledge, but also in its ability to act swiftly when required.
Once again, the Stefan Lengyel Scholarship of Excellence has been awarded to talented MOME students to recognise their outstanding achievements. The winning projects of the 2023/2024 spring semester feature a range of experimental works that addresses current social issues, spanning from video games to research, architectural revitalisation projects, and developmental tools for children.
Opportunities created for young people will positively impact all of our futures
A new chapter is beginning in the life of MOME. The institution, which has played a definitive role in Hungary's design culture in addition to being an innovator in higher education, is set to elevate its operations further through the "University of the Future" programme. The new rector of MOME, designer Pál Koós, began his term on August 1st, supported in an innovative manner by Dr Petra Aczél, communication and media researcher, as Vice-Rector for Excellence, and Lili Érmezei, photographer and organisational psychologist, as Vice-Rector for Strategy and Development. What new leadership competencies and formats are required by a university undergoing transformation? What do a highly effective organisation and a perfectly designed three-legged stool have in common?
