ELTE Faculty of Science  has been ranked as Hungary's best faculty
According to the HVG 2025 ranking, the Faculty of Science at ELTE has been ranked as the best university faculty in Hungary, surpassing the Faculty of General Medicine at Semmelweis University in second place and the Albert Szent-Györgyi Medical School at the University of Szeged in third place.

The ranking evaluates both academic excellence and student quality. Student excellence considers factors such as the number of applicants who chose the program as their first choice, the average admission scores, the proportion of applicants with language certificates, and the number of students who achieved placements in high school competitions. Academic excellence evaluates indicators such as the number of students per faculty member with a scientific degree, the number and proportion of faculty with scientific degrees, and the proportion of faculty with titles awarded by the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (MTA).

ELTE's Faculty of Science traditionally performs well in these metrics, securing first place again this year in the academic excellence sub-ranking. We are proud of this achievement and remain committed to ensuring that students who join us learn from outstanding scientific professionals at both the national and international levels.

These results clearly demonstrate that the efforts initiated with the development of the Faculty's strategy have put us on a successful trajectory, making ELTE’s Faculty of Science the best in the country once again this year.
