About the course

A seven-semester general management degree covering organisational management, marketing, finance, human resources, operations management and entrepreneurship, with electives and a thesis. The final semester includes a professional internship (20 credits).

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • Hungary asks for a completed upper-secondary school-leaving qualification, and the Leaving Certificate normally meets this, but each university decides whether to accept it. There is no national conversion of Leaving Cert grades (H1-H8, O1-O8) for English-taught programmes, and BGE publishes nothing Leaving Cert-specific, so confirm with admissions.
  • The university’s application portal refers to applicants booking interview dates, so expect an admission interview; no specific maths requirement was confirmed.
  • The programme is taught fully in English. The required English level and whether Leaving Cert English is accepted as proof were not confirmed; ask admissions.
