The International Student Association of Semmelweis, better known as ISAS, has launched a brand new magazine, the ISAS Review.
The first issue features an array of topics, including an interview with Rector-Elect Dr. Ágoston Szél, an introduction to the Students’ Scientific Association (TDK), scientific articles on dentistry, female hair loss and pesticides and, on a lighter theme, Hungarian lessons and travel tips.
According to its publishers, this student-run English publication is targeted at the student population, though not exclusively for the English program. “It’s meant to bridge the gap between faculties and years. The aim of the magazine is to be fun and interesting but also educational and useful. Even though students often study alongside students from other faculties, they don’t know very much about them, or the various extracurricular programs offered by Semmelweis University. Since English is the one language that is shared by almost all students in the Hungarian, German and English faculties, we hope to aid in linking these communities to each other.
“The goal is to make a sustainable publication which comes out every semester, two times a school year. Focus is not only on student affairs, but also on ISAS-related events, TDK, academic articles, student news and some lighter articles as well, with fixed positions for writers to ensure quality control.”
