MOME’s Rector calls for a vote of confidence in his role

Date: 2025.02.07
Rector Pál Koós, who has dedicated 24 years to Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in various roles – including as a lecturer, head of department, vice rector, and now as rector – is committed to resolving the situation that has arisen in recent days. His priority is to ensure a calm and uninterrupted environment for work and education, which requires clarification of the legitimacy of his position. Therefore, he has formally initiated a vote of confidence in the Senate today.

As already communicated by the university today, the Board of Trustees of the Foundation for Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design reached unanimous decisions on 7 February to expand the Senate’s powers. In addition, former Rector and university professor Gábor Kopek has addressed the university community in a letter, underlining the importance of dialogue and reaching an agreement.

A Gradual Exposure című válogatás vezérfonalát a dezinformáció, a digitális bizalom válsága, a klímaváltozás és a geopolitikai feszültségek témái adták, amelyekhez a hallgatók kísérletező, kutatásalapú és transzdiszciplináris megközelítésekkel kapcsolódtak. A munkák kész válaszok helyett inkább alternatív perspektívákat, új gondolkodási horizontokat kínáltak tükrözve az intézmény erős interdiszciplináris szellemiségét.
