Albert Szent-gyrgyi Medical University

Albert Szent-Gyrgyi Medical University was originally established in Kolozsvr, Transylvania, in 1872. After World War I, it was moved to Szeged. Between 1921 and the present, great advances have been made in the development of the University. Most of the University buildings have preserved their original, harmonized style, providing a true University atmosphere of tradition.

Setting and architecture

Preclinical departments of the Faculty of Medicine are situated around Cathedral (Dm) Square. The University Hospitals, housing the clinical departments, occupy the land between the Cathedral and River Tisza, which is a calm, peaceful area of the old town. Some of the preclinical departments are accommodated in other buildings; however, even off-campus departments of the Medical University (such as Anatomy, Pathology and Forensic Medicine) are within easy access from the city center (10 minutes by streetcar).

Famous professors

Many famous and world-renowned professors have been members of the Faculty, including:

Notable scientists

Faculty of Pharmacy

The Faculty of Pharmacy was founded in 1957. Since 1921, more than 4000 pharmacists have received their diplomas (Master of Pharmacy) and 400 pharmacists have been awarded a university doctorate in pharmacy. In recent years, 94 foreign students from 24 countries have received pharmaceutical diplomas through government-sponsored exchange programs. A number of young foreign pharmacists currently take part in different post-graduate courses.

Education today

The Albert Szent-Gyrgyi Medical University is the regional center of health care for southern Hungary, offering wide-ranging cooperation and collaboration with surrounding hospitals and research institutes. As stated earlier the once independent Univeristy is now a faculty of the University of Szeged.
