PhD Program

Launched in 2021, our PhD Program quickly rose to be one our most sought-out programs. Judged by an expert committee, our applicants' were judged not only by their research and teaching experience but also by their professional goals and motivation.

Once admitted, researchers in our PhD Program conduct a plethora of research activities in one of the MCC research institutes. Not only do they carry out their own independent research guided by a mentor, but they also carry out teaching activities in several of our programs as well as publish scientific papers and articles for the public.

As Hungary's largest interdisciplinary education and research center, we consider it a priority to foster a generation of Hungarian social scientists who are committed to the scientific method, are confident in communicating their own research results in an interdisciplinary manner. The PhD Program offers a unique opportunity for Hungarian doctoral students who wish to participate in the vibrant intellectual life at MCC.
