A Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetemért Alapítvány javaslatot tett az egyetem polgárainak egy új közösségi szerződés megkötésére, amellyel biztosítaná az intézmény békéjét és a megújulás folytatását.

One of the most influential figures in both Hungarian and German design, Stefan Lengyel is the designer behind such iconic objects as the ergonomic vacuum cleaner, the modern petrol station, the No. 2 tram, and many others.

A Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetem (MOME) Tiéd a holnap ösztöndíjprogramja 2023 őszén indult, hogy a hátrányos helyzetű középiskolásokat a kreatív pályák elérésében támogassa. A kezdeményezés szakmai és mentális segítséget nyújt a diákoknak, segíti őket, hogy eljussanak a művészeti felsőoktatási intézmények felvételijének kapujába. A program hatékonyságának kulcsa azonban olyan elkötelezett pedagógusok bevonása, akik nemcsak motiválják, hanem praktikus tanácsokkal is segítik a fiatalokat a tehetségük kibontakoztatásában. A tavaly indított tanároknak szóló ösztöndíjprogram most kapcsol élesbe.
