"I’m from Kazakhstan and from the first day I came to Debrecen I’ve felt in love with it because it’s an absolutely amazing city with limited urban bustle interconnecting people from over the world, an affordable place for students to study and travel directly from Debrecen. The university staff are always there when I need help. I get a quick response and support from them." (Madina, Biology BSc student from Kazakhstan)
