About Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design

The Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME) is home to world-class education, research and innovation, harnessing creativity to shape a future centered around people.

Celebrating its 140th anniversary in 2020, MOME has long been a cornerstone of Hungarian design. Since its inception, it has evolved into a premier institution within the local art and design scene as well as an international professional hub, producing graduates who go on to secure prominent roles in their industries. MOME maintains close relations with other educational institutions, research groups, studios, non-profit organisations and actors in both public and private sectors and is constantly expanding its range of partners.

Our interdisciplinary approach seamlessly integrates design and art across various fields of education and research. We are committed to fostering creativity and facilitating dialogue between society and the market.

We believe design is a complex artistic activity impacting various areas of economy and culture in multiple ways. This influence is evident in everyday objects, brand management, and in our virtual spaces.

At MOME, we employ user-oriented development methods and toolkits for a broader social and economic integration of these principles in spatial design, material culture, and the digital sphere.

At the core of MOME’s mission is the pursuit of world-class education, research, and the advancement of design and creativity. The university aims to nurture innovators and reformers who can improve life conditions and social systems in the 21st century through the adept use of design, technology, and contemporary art strategies.
MOME’s three-pillar model ¬— education, technology, and research and development — operates in a synergistic and mutually reinforcing manner.
Our identity is built on shaping society and creating values that make our environment a better place to live in. We firmly believe that design contributes to the well-being of citizens and the country’s development. As an ambassador of the fusion of tradition and innovation, MOME is dedicated to nurturing and educating its community and engaging in activities that improve quality of life both locally and globally.
