Beihai University of Arts and Design, Beihai, China
Beihai University of Art and Design has been cooperating with the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology of the University of Pécs since 2016 in the field of architecture and architectural art.
The University is located in
China, in the city of Beihai. It was established in 2000, specialized in art
and design, and has currently more than 12 400 students.
Main areas of cooperation:
1) „Pécs Class
Program”
The Universities have jointly
developed a training program covering two academic years in order to provide
high-quality prerequisite training for the students of Beihai University
applying to the Architecture major of the University of Pécs.
During the two years of
training, we provide English language classes in a high number of hours, offer
practical courses focusing on creativity and visual communication and integrate
professional courses from the first year of the one-tier master’s training curriculum
of the Faculty.
Students who successfully
complete the two-year training have a better chance of being admitted to the
one-tier Architecture training and may gain time advantage by having their
previous studies in Beihai recognized and thus shortening the period of their
training.
Designated teachers at the
University of Pécs involved in the training:
Dr. Jin XIN, senior lecturer
Dr. Jin Xin is the lecturer overseeing visual communication and creative design skill-training courses (Animation, Digital graphics, media)
Prof. Dr. HUTTER Ákos full professor, architect
Professor Hutter teaches
architectural design and construction courses within the frames of the Pécs
Class training program.
Further lecturers at the
University of Pécs contributing to the training: Prof. Dr. Gabriella Medvegy,
Prof. Dr. Bálint Bachmann, Dr. András Greg, Dr. Tibor Dányi
2) „UP FEIT Scholarship of Excellence”
The two Universities established
the Scholarship of Excellence program for students in 2019. It is available to
3 students attending the training and may be awarded to the student(s) with the
best performance at the entrance examination. The aim of this project is to offer a
scholarship to students participating in the „Pécs Class Program” in order to motivate
them to provide an outstanding performance at the admission interview.
