GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Education and Regional Development was established in

2015 with the integration of two faculties of the University of Pécs (Faculty of Adult

Education and Human Resources Development and the Illyés Gyula Faculty, Szekszárd). The

newest faculty of the first university of Hungary preserves and transmits all the intellectual

and cultural values and traditions created by its predecessors.

The new faculty offers university courses (BA and MA programs, vocational training and

specialized advanced training programs) in the fields of pedagogy, social politics, economics,

humanities, social and agricultural science. As an important cultural, scientific, and training

center of the region, with training locations in Pécs and Szekszárd, the faculty is permanently

improving and developing its educational programs that meet the needs of students and the

social and economic challenges. The faculty is also developing unique education programs (e-

learning, Senior Academy), involving new target groups and contributes to the assistance of

talented people, re-training of professionals, education of adults, and also plays an active role

in local and international research activities.

The degrees offered by the Faculty, which represent high labour market value and ensure up-

to-date knowledge, and the services that meet adults’ requirements live up to the expectations

of employees and the market.

Course title: Socio-economic processes – community – regional development



Form of teaching: practice, field trip

Form of assessment: written summary

Course description: A significant aspect of the inequalities emerging in the 90s is the

escalation of regional differences. The West Transdanubian region and the one around the



18

capital are in a more favourable situation in terms of unemployment and wage standards, than

the other regions. Investment of working capital is expected to keep concentrating in the

regions around Budapest and in West Transdanubia – which will probably result in a faster

development of these regions, at the same time it will “drain” the capital away from the less

developed regions.

The determinant factors in the socio-economic space are the flow of working capital, change,

growth (both in quality and quantity) and structural change of economic space, as well as

economic development bringing about social welfare and modernization. Hungary has to rely

even more intensively on its own resources in the global competition, and the quality and

quantity of skilled labour plays a major role in achieving this.

The subject overwiews the main socio-economic and labour market processes that result a

strong center-periphery relationship in Hungary. The main goals in the governmental role,

employment policy, and how Hungary plans the renewal through the „new” national strategies

and European Union funds.

Minimum number of students: 2 (maximum 4!)
