CEU is an international university in the truest sense: with some 1,200
students from 80 countries, and over 200 faculty from 30 countries, CEU ’s
academic community is one in which there is no national predominance. The language of instruction and
communication is English.
The university's unique combination of American, Western European and regional
intellectual and academic traditions enables CEU to place emphasis on the
shifting boundary between the local and the universal in the theoretical, as
well as the practical, aspects of research and teaching. Following the American
model in research, teaching methods, and above all, in the training of doctoral
students, the university also strives to become part of the European academic
sphere, embodying long-standing cultural traditions of Western Europe as well as
the "Central European" region. This combination has an impact on the curriculum
and puts emphasis on the span of historical awareness for comparative purposes.
