International level - interview with Nóra Sipos, student of the UP
Motivated, friendly and determined – these three words best describe Nóra Sipos. As a student of the Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Education and Regional Development she majored on the Human Resources Counseling Masters’ program.
Would you be so kind sharing your opinion about your degree course?
I graduated from Andragogy: the study of employment policy, cultural science and psychology gave a good foundation to make my choice easier concerning the special programs of the faculty. At the same time I discovered the winter and summer schools offered by the faculty. Thus I got a chance to study in Belgrade and Würzburg – it was such a great experience! I highly recommend this opportunity to all students, because language skills can be improved easily. I chose to major on the Human Resources Counseling Masters’ program after this experience. As we study in English, students are not just from Hungary, but from all over the world! Within the frame of our future work we will assist organizations and companies in any field of human resource management. There is a growing need for such professionals. In addition, there are courses by the help of which we learn how to bridge the cultural differences in multinational environments. The last semester is a professional practice that we can as well do by foreign companies.
What countries are the fellow students from?
They came from Indonesia, Jordan, India, Turkey, Syria and Pakistan. We learn a lot from one another and we have become familiar with the cuisine of these countries as well. Students who join in via Erasmus also spice up our lives.
Does the faculty offer help or guiding for you?
We get a great support from our professors ! Let me share an example: in January, we received an invitation from our professor, Balázs Németh and a professor from Belgrade to join this year's UNESCO GRALE conference. In order to participate, we applied for the Talent Scholarship of the Student Union of the UP. Our application was accepted and we received the money for the trip. So five of us travelled by car to Belgrade - it was a great experience, of which we benefited quite a lot.
