During the extraordinary Senate session on 3 March, Ybl and Prima Primissima Award-winning architect and university professor Csaba Kovács was elected with 70% of the vote to serve as acting rector of the university. Following the vote, a confidence vote saw more than 90% of the Senate supporting his nomination, and his candidacy has now been submitted to the Board of Trustees for approval. The Board of Trustees will discuss this nomination at its next meeting.
Important discussions have taken place in recent days, aimed at seeking consensus, fostering consolidation, and building and strengthening trust between the various parties. “Following the resolutions made at the extraordinary Senate meetings in February, the Senate has started negotiations with both the MOME Front and the Board of Trustees of the Foundation maintaining the university. Both discussions are productive and focused on building mutual understanding”, said CEO of MOME and acting president of the MOME Senate Réka Matheidesz.
