• the history of the Faculty of Engineering dates back to 1965
• in 2005, the Bologna System was introduced, which aids the compatibility of the qualifications received at the University of Debrecen with other European universities
• in 2011, the Faculty launched engineering trainings in English
• the Faculty is home to approximately 3.000 students in total, more than 730 international students and a highly-qualified and enthusiastic teaching staff of about 100 members
• students are provided with practical knowledge, training and field practice with the help of the numerous prestigious domestic and multi-national industry partners

• the Faculty was awarded the Quality Prize by the Ministry of Education in 2011 as a recognition for its efforts in this field

 
Research 

• the fields of research of Faculty members are very comprehensive, including
  • the examination of the time-dependant mechanical properties of certain engineering materials (silicatebased materials, polymers, metals)
  • the transport processes of the built environment (building physics, building energy performance, the protection of the built environment, environment-oriented engineering, dynamic examination of transport processes)
  • electric (hybrid) Drivetrain development
  • autonomous vehicle testing and development
  • basic research on new battery technology
  • hydrogen storage
• also, there are significant researches in
  • quality and maintenance management
  • applied mathematics and IT
  • architecture and architectural history.
  • sustainable energy
  • wastewater treatment
  • air and water protection
  • environmental noise measurements
• a new field that emerged a few years ago concerns intelligent machines, which involves research in the field of
  • production informatics and
  • building automation as an application of mechatronics
