The Study Tour is scheduled between 3-4th of May, directly before the conference.

As the first and biggest Local Committee in Hungary, Budapest University is delivering quality experiences since 1972. During the 43 years Budapest University managed to grow and develop year by year and prove its relevance in the CEE region as top 5th Local Committee. Throughout this journey of continuous learning we have not forgotten our past and could keep many traditions and customs alive, which ensure the cultural unity of Budapest University and bound us to our long past. We always strive for excellence and provide professional and valuable services to all our stakeholders.

For this term we planned altogether 441 exchanges. Our focus programs are iGIP and oGIP. During the following year we would like to grow both in the quality and quantity of these two programs to ensure professional experience and increase the amount of internship programs. Our membership counts more than 100 enthusiastic AIESECers, which requires us to put more emphasis on improving our Team Member and Team Leader programs, thus give more and more people the chance to live the AIESEC experience and become conscious leaders of the future.

It is an honour to be the host LC of CEE LDS 2015. This conference contributes to providing quality international experiences, which is one of our main focuses this year. Openness and cultural diversity represents a great value for our Local Committee.

Hungary is a country at the heart of Europe. While not large in terms of population, Hungary has a wealth of culture and history, complemented by a language so completely different from its neighbors that almost no shared words exist! It deserves the nickname "land of waters", as it holds the largest lake in Europe (Lake Balaton) and is crossed by mighty rivers which divide and define its regions. Even its capital city is split by the Danube River, with Buda on the Western side and Pest on the Eastern bank. Hungary is also a land of particularly rich folk heritage. Folk culture is not only preserved in museums, however traditions live on in many of Hungary's small villages, kept alive by local communities, and even modern-day city-dwellers do things that might surprise you first. Area: Total - 93,030 km2 (35,919 sq mi) Population: 9,942,000 Time zone: Central European Time (GMT+1) Currency: Hungarian Forint (HUF) (294,51 EUR) Telephone country code: +36
