CS Study Abroad in Budapest

Gábor Bojár, Founder of AIT and Professor of IT Entrepreneurship, will be on Columbia's campus to encourage students to consider a great English-language study abroad program, Aquincum Institute of Technology Budapest, for students majoring in Computer Science, Software Engineering and related fields. Friday, October 30th at 12 PM at 522C Kent Hall.  
 
About AIT: The AIT program has a first-rate faculty, an innovative curriculum including courses such as "Computer Vision Applications for Digital Cinema" taught by faculty affiliates from Colorfront Studios (recent recipients of an Academy Award for technical contributions), and Design Workshop designed by Erno Rubik (inventor of the Rubik's Cube and recent recipient of the U.S. Outstanding Contributions to Science Education Award), and a guest lecture series that brings prominent speakers to campus.

All classes are conducted in English at AIT's state-of-the-art campus on the lovely banks of the Danube River. Students live in vibrant neighborhoods of Budapest and have ample opportunities to interact with Hungarian students and explore Hungary and the region.

AIT is small and friendly, with typical class sizes of 5-15 students. Recent U.S. AIT students have come from Harvey Mudd College, MIT, Dartmouth College, Princeton University, Smith, Swarthmore and Williams Colleges, among several others. The program also includes a number of Hungarian students. AIT Alumni site: http://www.ait-budapest.com/ait-alumni
