Since then, the Club aims to build a local CEMS network by enriching the CEMS experience for students, corporate partners, alumni, and Academia. This goal is achieved through organizing numerous social and academic activities to support the integration of newly accepted students.
There are lots of great opportunities to enjoy student life in Budapest! We regularly go out together to have parties, play laser tag, go bowling, or cook for ourselves during the memorable running dinners. Regular events also include the CEMS Winter / Summer Camp and the Christmas Ball. CEMS Club Budapest annually hosts a reunion for the CEMS students from all over Europe and the rest of the World, giving them the opportunity to connect and make life-long friendships.
