Renewal of HUN-REN

The Hungarian Research Network, currently modernizing its organization, aims to become one of Europe’s most efficient research institutions. HUN-REN's new leadership envisions a well-funded, open, and science-focused institution that significantly contributes to Hungary's social and economic development.

Researchers within the Hungarian Research Network can anticipate a long-term, consistent, value-driven, and merit-based funding system; a supportive organizational structure; nationally and internationally competitive salaries; and predictable career progression. HUN-REN fosters an entrepreneurial and collaborative approach, with administrative and procurement services designed to support researchers and a strong emphasis on outreach to the broader scientific community.
