Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE), the longest continuously serving university of Hungary, was founded in 1635 in the city of Nagyszombat (today Trnava, Slovakia) by Cardinal Péter Pázmány, Archbishop of Esztergom. It serves the interests of high quality education and research, building upon the best European traditions. The mission of ELTE is to preserve and enrich national and universal culture, to cultivate science and to pass on academic knowledge, as well as to shape and satisfy the real, long-term needs of Hungarian society and of mankind. ELTE aims to educate intellectuals with up-to-date knowledge and versatile culture, who – can identify and analyze problems, and who are able to propose problem-solving strategies and bring about responsible decisions – seek consensus, understanding and respecting different cultures – are aware of their individual responsibilities with regard to the future of their immediate environment, of Hungary, of Europe and of mankind – represent the values of professionalism, solidarity and humanism – respect universal ethical norms, human dignity and the freedom of thought and opinion. Motivated by the conviction that a high standard of teaching at a university is inconceivable without high-quality research, ELTE aims to represent both sides of the traditional concept of a universitas.
