Our lecturers Dr. Lan Anh Nguyen Luu and Dr. Orsolya Endrődy prepared the International Credit Mobility Application with Osaka University during their Erasmus teaching mobility in July 2025. During their visit, they gave lectures to Hungarian BA, MA, and doctoral students and held workshops where they spoke with Japanese students in Hungarian. They talked about everyday life in Hungarian kindergartens, and elementaries with folk songs, folk dances, and nursery rhymes.
Orsolya Endrődy gave university lectures and seminars on her research related to Childhood studies, while Nguyen Luu Lan Anh gave lectures and seminars on her research related to Acculturation.
During the study trip, the two parties agreed to expand their relationship. They discussed BA, MA, and doctoral-level student exchanges and further faculty visits. In the future, this project will allow a larger number of Hungarian students to visit ELTE and participate in classes at the Intercultural Institute in addition to their teacher training studies. Prof. Okamoto Mari, head of the Hungarian department, welcomed the opportunities with enthusiasm. The two universities have maintained a Memorandum of Understanding based on mutual recognition since 2011.
