DEBRECEN UNIVERSITY, DEBRECEN
Education began at the four faculties in September 1914. The Faculty of Medicine was the first to receive an independent site, when, during World War I, the construction of the university hospital began on a secluded, wooded ground of 116 hectares. There were almost a thousand people working at the site. Charles IV, the last king of Hungary, opened the main building of the medical school in 1918, and the medical campus was completed in 1927. The new high-rise building, which houses departments of theoretical medicine, was erected in 1973. The university now offers complete English language studies in General Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry and Physiotherapy, as well as Natural Sciences.
