Interest was higher than expected, with close to 1800 students a day coming to the Basic Medical Science Center, where in addition to the central Albert Szent-Gy\u00f6rgyi lecture hall, visitors could follow every program on screens set up in the main assembly hall and six other locations.<\/div>\n<p>Attendance at the Summer University was limited only by the capacity of the lecture halls, with attendance exceeding all expectations, said vice-rector for education Dr. P\u00e9ter Hermann, who was the main organizer of the event together with Dr. Bal\u00e1zs Hank\u00f3, vice-rector for strategy and development. He noted that the limit was drawn at 1769 registered participants per day, and the presentations could be followed on screens set up in seven other locations outside the main lecture hall.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was our explicit goal that there not just be presentations on medical topics, but that students also get a selection of sports, culture and history-related programs to choose from, as well as hear about current issues relating to health care, industry and innovation,\u201d emphasized Dr. P\u00e9ter Hermann. He noted that the task of the university is to educate doctors that are informed and have a wide perspective, and the event\u2019s programs were put together with this in mind. The vice-rector added that the organization of this event, which was held for the first time on September 4-7, was the result of exemplary teamwork.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Semmelweis Summer University and Opening ceremony of the academic year\" width=\"753\" height=\"424\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/R2wlJ7sP0mc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Bal\u00e1zs Hank\u00f3 said that the 250th anniversary year is a great opportunity to strengthen the Semmelweis community. The Summer University was an active meeting point for students, lecturers, clinicians and invited guests, and the event was characterized by enthusiastic students and a vibrant community life, the vice-rector noted. He added that it is the intention to create a tradition of the Summer University and hold similar events in the future as well.
