Hungarian Studies Graduate Programme Duration of programme, academic titles: the Hungarian Studies graduate programme lasts for 10 semesters and ends with a thesis, which the student earns the title of the Master of Arts in Hungarian Studies with. The student that does not opt for this must take the final that encompasses cumulative knowledge of Hungarian language and literature (that is based on Language Classes and courses in Contemporary Hungarian and Hungarian literature). Requirements for graduate study: successful undergraduate Hungarian Studies programme at the Zagreb Faculty of Philosophy or any other world institution of higher education with a comparable programme. Graduate study objectives: the graduate study enables the student for beginner scholarly work in the field of Hungarian Studies or for employment in the cultural sector (translation, publishing), media, diplomacy or economy where a degree of education, linguistic, scholarly and methodological competence gained through studying at the Hungarian Studies graduate level is needed. Most attention is given to acquiring linguistic competence because of its being a prerequisite for work both in scholarly Hungarian Studies work and other jobs that require knowledge of Hungarian Studies. Therefore all graduate students must pass all s (language and literature) regardless of their choice of the Master s thesis topic.

B) Students who choose not to write the thesis collect 50 points for taken and elective courses; the remaining 10 for cumulative knowledge (the final ). The final consists of three components and is graded according to the following scheme: - Hungarian language: 4 points - Hungarian language grammar: 3 points - Hungarian literature: 3 points Students who write the thesis and students who take the cumulative knowledge instead both take the same elective courses but students who do write garner 0.5 points more (3.5 points per course) than those who do not (3 points per course).

These course are n o t o r g a n i z e d every year or in every semester: in a single semester, the maximum is three from different areas (literary contacts study, linguistic contacts study, translation and communication) according to future personnel possibilities of the Hungarian Chair, i.e. according to the number of students interested in certain courses in a given semester. (Cf. notes at the end of the document!) A component part of the graduate programme is a one-semster scholarship programme at one of Hungarian univeristies, during the last 4 semesters. Points gathered there students certify into their student books; with previous arrangements with the literature and language professors at the Chair as to which courses can be recognized according to the ETCS scheme after the return.
