Research Institutes and Laboratories

The Hungarian country has a centralized research policy-making structure and most of the public research institutes are funded directly by the Hungarian government. The Science and Technology Policy Council is the highest consulting organization, which assesses the research activities conducted in the Hungarian country and states the themes and priorities for research work.

The Budapest Training Reactor operated by the Department of Nuclear Energy supports the postgraduate (PhD) education and offers international courses in co-operation with other universities

Bay Zoltan Foundation for Applied Research

Bay Zoltan Foundation for Applied Research is an institute suited to carry out efficient applied technological and scientific research and development. The aim of the institutes’ innovative activity is to develop and adapt technologies, subsequently transferring them with added value. A new aim of the Foundation is to support the popularisation and teaching of certain modern industrial and agricultural technologies by establishing Demonstration Centres. A further important task is to train researchers who will be capable of fulfilling the new expectations set by the globalising market and R&D, through supplementing the Ph.D. courses of universities.
