Overview
The primary task of the Doctoral School is to provide educational programmes of a high
standard in accordance with the requirements of the Bologna system to those leading
architects with an MSc or MA degree, as well as to those with an MA or MSc degree in an
architecture-related field.
The programmes of the Doctoral School engage in fields dealing with the most important
concerns in Hungary and, specifically in the Pécs region, the areas of national heritage
protection. Heritage protection, taking advantage of the latest developments and
technologies, enjoys priority within the highly complex system of architectural tasks both
in Hungary and the whole of Europe. Heritage protection, in addition to its architectural and
artistic aspects, encompasses the active use of a wider range of scientific fields.
