Take a moment and check this list. We’ve compiled some of the best universities in Europe, making it a simpler choice than it’s ever been! You’d be hard-pressed not to find the right European university for you somewhere on this list.

Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zürich

This is an excellent university for those longing to study science, math, or architecture. The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zürich specializes in engineering sciences and architecture specifically, although there are many more majors that you can choose from. Want a place you can research? This is the one you were looking for. Located in Switzerland’s city of Zürich, it makes a wonderful place to study for any Hungarian student who wants to travel abroad.

Florence University of the Arts

Art students certainly couldn’t find a better place to study than Florence. Not only is it one of the best places to live in Europe, but it’s been known for its artwork for centuries. Simply walking around feels like a free art exhibit. You’ll likely want to spring for a website or two so that you can look around during your days off. As a quick peek online will show you, this school is a recent addition, built in 1997. Any art student should consider this school.

École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne

Located just off of Lake Geneva, this Poly-Tech school is the one that you should certainly consider if you want to get into any STEM field. The service they provide for students is fantastic, helping them attract the best minds throughout the world. The main focus is on training future engineers and other tech-related professionals. However, there are different majors offered, if you’re not really a STEM kind of person.

Salzburg College

Of particular interest to Hungarian students should be Salzburg College. Located in the eastern part of Austria, it’s likely the closest school to where you currently live featured on this list. This is a private school, but it offers big rewards if you enroll. Salzburg is not just one of the safest cities you can find in Austria, it’s also one of the most beautiful places. History is what this school is all about! If you want to learn about it as well as the Austrian culture, this is the right place for you.

Katholieke Universiteit Leuven

Our first entry in Belgium, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven offers a well-rounded curriculum, guaranteeing that there will be something for every student. As with most schools, a heavy lean is put on the STEM field. However, they also offer a great deal of alternatives, including humanities, business, and even an education major!

With eleven beautiful campuses that you can choose from, you’ll be able to pick the one right for you.

University of Amsterdam

Unlike many of the schools we’ve listed, the University of Amsterdam focuses mostly on social sciences, business, and humanities. If you developed an allergy to math as a teenager (as most of us did), this is likely a school worth considering. Beyond it, Amsterdam is a well-known vacation spot for young adults worldwide.

Why not study there, instead of just flying in for a week or so?

 University of Granada (Universidad de Granada)

For some, studying in sunny Spain seems like a dream come true. And, if you’re studying at the University of Granada, it might be! This expansive school, located in historic Granada, offers the best education in Spain. Whether you’re interested in traditional studies or want to study Spanish culture and language in particular, there’s something here for you. Bonus: You’re near the mountains as well as the beach. You can do your essay writing tucked under a beach umbrella! That’s guaranteed to be a winning essay.

University of Oxford

This is likely the most famous university that we’ve featured on this list. That’s for a good reason: Oxford has been around for a very long time and is still one of the best and most sought-after schools in the world. It’s hard to point out a specific major that would do best here because they really do offer everything. From social sciences, business and art to medicine and law, you can find a field that interests you. It’s not an easy university to get into, but if it’s feasible for you, you should definitely give it a try.

It isn’t easy to pick out which university you want to attend, whether you’re looking from Hungary, Tuscany, Zimbabwe, or Mars.

But there is something on this list that should be a right choice for almost everyone. Studying abroad is a rich, rewarding experience that helps you understand different cultures. That’s the best thing any of these schools offer.
