About us

Welcome

Welcome to the new website of the Doctoral School of Architecture!

The BME Doctoral School of Architecture celebrated its quarter-century anniversary last year. An important period has come to an end, as a result of which nearly 180 architects obtained their degrees. Among them there were the most influential architectural professors and creators of the second half of the 20th century and the years following the turn of the millennium, such as József Kerényi, Ferenc Török, Gábor Turányi, Lajos Zalaváry, Imre Makovecz, József Finta. The first twenty-five years were commemorated with the publication of a Thesis Book, which includes a summary of the school’s brief history and fifty written works.

Looking back is important, but paying attention to the present and the future is even more essential. We are entering a new era, and the shift is necessary not only because of the jubilee, but also due to the large-scale changes taking place in culture and the natural environment. We are seeing the impact of the pandemic on communities and the emergence of artificial intelligence with serious implications for all aspects of life, including education and the scientific world. In this situation, a community of an art doctoral school such as ours, which considers the training of architects receptive to culture and committed to a sensitive balance between the natural and the built world to be its most important task, has an increased responsibility. We are privileged to work in the high-quality academic environment of the BUTE vagy BME, because this intellectual environment allows us to experience the benefits of direct dialogue between the practitioners of science and art. Perhaps that is why we believe that the relationship between science and art – especially architecture as a cultural phenomenon interwoven by the sciences – will take on a new meaning in the twenty-first century. With this in mind, we shape the school’s training program, accept and support individual research plans and, in this spirit, seek collaborations with other institutions and creators.
