Introduction
I am an associate professor at the Department of Tourism and a member of the Future of Higher Education Research Centre of Budapest Business University. My work at BBU started in 2009 at the Department of Foreign Languages for Business Communication and I have also been working as an accredited examiner at the BBU Foreign Language Examination Centre since 2010. I started designing project proposals and carrying out international projects after completing a training at the Tempus Public Foundation in 2012. A ten-year summary of the projects implemented by the faculty (2013-2023) can be found HERE: https://view.genially.com/620ea9dd11ec9b0012b07199/presentation-ka2atbbsfcht
Since 2019, as a lecturer at the faculty, I have been coordinating Erasmus projects (KA103, KA107, KA171, KA2 strategic partnership projects) and in 2021 I was nominated Faculty Head of International Affairs. I was honoured to receive the award Pro Facultate in November 2024 for "an outstanding contribution over a long period of time to the efficient teaching and research work of the faculty, as well as for strengthening its reputation in Hungary and internationally”.
