Mini animation spots capturing the momentum and vibe of Budapest were designed by MOME Anim students to promote the MyBudapest application. The animations feature several iconic locations, including Trafo, Toldi Cinema, Gellért Hill, and thermal baths, presented by the students using their own experiences.

The animations were commissioned by the developer of the application, Budapest Brand, and created by the students during a course launched in September 2023, using their own experiences related to institutions in Budapest offering a discount and included in the ÉnBudapestem app. The event guide app provides discounts for cinemas, theatres, baths, restaurants, permanent exhibitions, and concerts in Budapest, and is designed to enable the people of Budapest to rediscover their city and look at it with fresh eyes.

One animation features a dragon flying over the Buda Castle, another kufli-like creatures touring the attractions of the city, while a third fairytale creatures drawing young people out of the room and virtual reality into the open.

At the course, Angelika Galsi, Boglárka Gecse, Hanna Gollob, Eszter Győri, Erna Halmai, Orsolya Imre, Zsófia Jánosi, Kata Lakatos, Fruzsina Schwanberger, Ágnes Snekszer, Simon Szijjártó, Csilla Szőke, Kamilla Takács, and Viktória Tóth each created a 40-50-second spot each.

The University of the Future initiative is a key focus this year, aimed at MOME’s comprehensive revitalisation. Thanks to persistent efforts over recent months, working groups have developed a detailed implementation plan for the University of the Future programme, a.k.a. the “Three Schools model”, which was unanimously accepted in December 2023. The process has now reached a new milestone: on 18 July, the Senate has pledged its support for the plan, paving the way for continued collaborative work to implement the new structure by next winter and to transform MOME into one of Europe's leading design higher education institutions.

Our University has been invited to exhibit at one of the world's most prestigious digital art festivals, the Ars Electronica 2024. Each year, the Campus series of the long-standing festival presents an art university. This year's exhibition is organised in collaboration with the University of Linz, and will feature outstanding student diploma works from recent years in Linz's main square selected by curators Judit Eszter Kárpáti, Esteban de la Torre, and Ágoston Nagy.

A new symbol has been added to the range of memorabilia that members of the MOME community can receive as they reach various milestones in their university careers. This new emblem, which reinforces a sense of belonging, is a turned and machined bronze item with a polished surface based on the letter ‘O’ in MOME’s logo. Designed by MOME MA teacher Krisztián Ádám at the initiative of Rector József Fülöp, this symbol will be awarded to all graduates at all levels along with the diplomas starting in 2024.
