Since the beginning of this year PPCU and the Armenian State Pedagogical University after Khachatur Abovyan (ASPU) have been cooperating on the creation of the new Armenian Studies Department in our University. In the beginning we have signed a cooperation agreement on the 23th of March, laying the foundation for future mobility of students and teachers. After establishing the Department in Piliscsaba and the start of the accreditation procedure, Dr. FODOR György, Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences has visited Armenia to exchange practices and deepen our partnership.
