Abstract
The study aims to review the processes of international student mobility towards Hungary, with particular attention to the time-series analysis of the number of international students studying in Hungary, the trends emerging from the data and the changes regarding the sending countries as well as their hypothetical causes in the period between 2001 and 2019. The study is based on the latest available statistical data for 2019/2020, which we used to analyse the distribution of international students by research field, level of training and the geographical distribution of the host universities in Hungary. Following the international trends, a significant increase can also be observed within Hungary, in the number of students coming from the East, more exactly from Asian countries including China, Iran, and Turkey. Many students from the neighbouring countries also choose Hungary as their place of study for historical and ethnic reasons. International students studying in Hungary participate in a remarkably high proportion (approximately 30%) in medical and healthcare degree programs. However, with the diversification of programs available in foreign languages the comprehensive universities in the countryside have come to the foreground and now they host the largest number of international students.
