Nagyvárad tér Theoretical Building (NET)
1089 Budapest, Nagyvárad tér 4.
It is relatively easy to get to, as it is directly accessible by several means of public transportation. Metro line M3 stops at Nagyvárad tér, however due to currently ongoing metro renovations, the metro is replaced by buses. In addition, tram lines 2M and 24 also stop right in front of the building.
The NET is one of the tallest tower buildings in Hungary, with 24 floors in total. It houses laboratories of the university’s departments and it is where NET Run sports event is annually held. First you’ll encounter the lower floors, where the classes take place. If you go up one of the staircases to the left of the tower, you will find yourself in front of the main entrance, but if you turn right just after the stairs, you will find yourself in the Student Centre, more commonly known as the Aquarium. Here you will also find the Instructor Interactive Group (IÖCS) and the Students’ Union (SU) offices. If you walk through the main entrance, you will find yourself in a huge lobby, where if you look to your left you will see the Medical Specialist Shop, followed by the Legendus Bookshop, and then the University’s cafeteria restaurant. To the right of the main entrance you’ll find the reception office, where you can ask for help at any time. To the left of the reception office starts a corridor from which the elevators open. From the right side of the lobby, unmistakable wide staircases lead up to the “flat”, where you will find the two large lecture halls (green and brown), several seminar rooms and laboratories (marked S and L), and, immediately to the left of the stairs, the Dean’s Office, where the academic administration is located. From the right corner, a corridor leads to the Student Centre (DC) and the gallery above the lobby, commonly referred to as the”bridge”, where there is always a place to study during the day or just relax in a relatively quiet place.

On entering the EOK, you will be greeted by a spacious, bright lobby from where the lecture halls open. You will also find a buffet, should you get hungry. There are also plenty of tables and chairs where you can study or just chat. The library opens from the corridor, opposite the main entrance.

The first floor houses the various departments’ practice rooms, seminar and consultation rooms. This is where the Biophysics, medical chemistry, biochemistry and physiology practices are held.
