Courses

Regularly I teach undergraduate and graduate classes in the history of psychology, in cognition and language.
During te academic year of 2004-2005 I shall be acting as Hungarian Chair Professor at Indiana University. My courses will be the following:

Spring

Structure of Hungarian (joint list as CEUS U320/U520 and LINGL490/L590)

The course shall present contemporary structural approaches to Hungarian for an audience that does not necessarily speak Hungarian, but have a solid background in linguistic theory. Hungarian as a highly agglutinate language, with relatively free word order has been at the center of linguistic attention during the last few decades.

Hungarian Child Language in Typical and in Impaired Populations (joint list as CEUS, LING, and SPHS)

The course shall present Hungarian child language data of theoretical and practical relevance for linguists, students of Hungarian studies, and psychologists who are interested in comparative child language research. The course does not suppose require knowledge of Hungarian, though supplementary Hungarian readings shall be provided for those reading Hungarian.

Fall

CEUS U423: "Hungary Between 1890 and 1945."

CEUS U321: "Sentence Processing in an Agglutinative Language" as his second class during the fall semester.

Beside my regular classes fro students of industrial management and economics at Budapest University of Technology and Economics, I am involved in three other types of activities that are partly offered or done in English.

Doctoral school

Doctoral school. From 2004 on, a doctoral school of psychology, concentrating on cognitive sceince was launched at our department.

The school is open for English speaking applicants. Here are some of the details, while the full text can be studied in Hungarian at the homepage of the doctoral school.

Cognitive Science and a Cognitive Psychology master program

My third new educational effort is to create a Cognitive Science and a Cognitive Psychology master program at our university.

These programs shall hopefully be accredited as part of the restructuring of Hungarian higher education around 2007-2008. Both will be offered in English, as well as Hungarian.
