Georgina Kasza PhD
Learning to Integrate Hungarian and International Students: Institutional and Individual Challenges
The intensification of inward mobility focused attention on the issue of the integration of foreign students in higher education. Although studying abroad has many individual advantages, students often face challenges during their studies. The increasingly diverse student communities and the presence of an increasing number of international students highlighted the importance of integration for the institutions as well. The lecture focuses on different arenas of integration, the individual and institutional obstacles, and emphasizes the importance of the topic.

Erzsébet Csereklye PhD
A journey and a rat race: The professional socialization of doctoral students
The professional socialization of students progressing towards a doctoral degree is a fluid phenomenon (Weidmann, 2020), starting well before the start of doctoral training and not necessarily ending immediately after the degree. Our
research, based on semi-structured interviews with 30 Hungarian and international doctoral students and young graduates, explored the motives of the socialization process associated with doctoral degree acquisition, which cut
across several dimensions. Such motives are the role of the family, the choice of the topic, and the role of the supervisor. The presentation will show how interview respondents linked these socialization spaces to the success of the doctoral process and how young researchers outline visions for their professional career.
