In Transcarpathia, all the conditions are given for a researcher to flourish and carry out research at international level.

According to the rules of the Academy, external member can be a scientist who lives abroad, is engaged in international scientific activities abroad, declares himself Hungarian and has close ties with the Hungarian scientific life.

thanks to the support of the Hungarian government, the College in Beregszász has become an intellectual and educational center in recent years. Therefore, it is important that within its walls there was an academic life that is recognised both nationally and internationally.
