The winners of the Stefan Lengyel Excellence Scholarship has been announced

Date: 2022.07.07

For the third time, the performance-based financial and professional support was awarded to 16 exceptionally talented MOME students. The winners will receive a monthly grant of HUF 150,000 for one semester and gain valuable, hands-on and competitive knowledge with the help of our partners the Market Építő Zrt., Be Light! and the Hungarian Fashion and Design Agency.

The Stefan Lengyel Excellence Scholarship was established by the Foundation for Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in 2020. In addition to delivering a material reward to outstanding talents, the scholarship awarded now for the third time also places major focus on advancing the competences and practical experience of students and on their professional integration.

Qualifiers are voted into the first round by students and instructors, and following a pre-screening, the winners are selected by a jury of university leaders, instructors and external specialists. This year too, scholarships were allocated in proportion to the number of students at each institute, with 5 students from the Design Institute, 3 from the Institute for Theoretical Studies, 2 from the Architecture Institute, and 6 from the Media Institute receiving the Stefan Lengyel Excellence Scholarship.

At the reveal of the winners ceremony, speeches were delivered by the eponym of the programme professor emeritus Stefan Lengyel, President of the Foundation for Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design Gergely Böszörményi-Nagy, and Rector József Fülöp.

In autumn 2022, there will be an extensive exhibition featuring the works of the winners of all three semesters. The entries explore a wide variety of subjects and address issues of the present and the future, in particular ecological sustainability and social problems.
