Bonus Intra History Competition

The aim of the event, which has been held since 2010, is to give the pre-graduation (11th, 12th, 13th) classes the opportunity to test their knowledge in a competitive situation. The competition also aims to promote the Collegium among high school students, to address Hungarian students across the border, and to help prepare for graduation in the form of a high-quality, exciting, novel history competition. The three-round program is mostly organized by our junior students. During the first round, competitors must complete an online test, in the second round they must write an essay, which they will defend before a professional jury in the last round. The competition is open to high school students who are interested in history and who want to use, develop and expand their knowledge, creative thinking and historical literacy.

MCC Debate 

The MCC Debate competition is a new initiative that seeks to create a tradition among high school students by promoting the Anglo-Saxon debate culture. In the competition, students can compare their knowledge, creativity and reasoning skills in a court hearing format discussion in teams of 3 people. In preparation, they need to gather arguments for or against a given sentence, which are logically built on top of each other. The first round of the competition takes place online. Teams can apply by writing an argumentative essay, followed by a live discussion at the Mathias Corvinus Collegium for the next two rounds.
