Conference venue
The Faculty of Education and Psychology of the Eötvös Loránd University
(ELTE) was founded in 2003. One of the two main objectives of the Faculty is to
ensure the teaching and practicing of education, psychology and physical education in all three educational
terms. The other one is to participate in the pedagogical studies of every
faculty of ELTE. The Faculty provides opportunities to become a PhD student in
psychology and pedagogy. Besides, with its interdisciplinary education and
research branch, the faculty contributes to the human innovation of higher
education, to the connection and openness of different cultures and to the
physical and mental health of society. The Faculty constitutes of four
institutes: Institute of Psychology, Institute of Education, Centre of
Intercultural Psychology, and Pedagogy and Centre of Physical Education.
The Faculty is located in the 7th district of Budapest, which is dubbed
as the “Jewish district”. The reason of this is that the main centers of the
Orthodox Jewish religious life of the city can be found there. Along with the
synagogues, the atmosphere of the area is shaped by several ‘ruin pubs’ that
have been opened in empty tenement-houses and their courtyards over the past
decade.
