Dear All, As the BSME summer program seems suitable for more students than the semester one, from 2023 we are offering the summer program only. We are asking for your feedback (both semester and summer alumni) about how to form BSME summer in the future. Please fill out the following questionnaire: https://lnkd.in/d64HEMqN Many thanks for your help, and huge thanks to those who already filled it in! Réka

Budapest Semesters in Mathematics Education (BSME) is a study abroad program in Budapest, Hungary.
About us
Budapest Semesters in Mathematics Education (BSME) is a study abroad program in Budapest, Hungary, designed for undergraduates, recent graduates, and in-service teachers interested in the learning and teaching of secondary mathematics. BSME was conceived by the founders of Budapest Semesters in Mathematics (BSM), and the two programs share a common goal—to experience the mathematical and general culture of Hungary. BSME is specifically intended for those who are not only passionate about mathematics, but also the teaching of mathematics. Home to eminent mathematicians such as Paul Erdős, Vera Sós, and George Pólya, Hungary has a long tradition of excellence in mathematics education. At BSME, participants immerse themselves in mathematical exploration to experience first-hand learning in the Hungarian approach; then they investigate how to bring this pedagogy into their own classrooms. They observe Hungarian mathematics classrooms and have the opportunity to plan and teach their own lessons to Hungarian students (in English). Above all, participants enjoy a shared experience with others who are passionate about teaching mathematics, forming a rich support network and professional community that will extend beyond their time in Budapest. The BSME instructors are Hungarian teacher scholars who follow their own mathematical upbringing in Hungary and bring a creative spirit to the program. They challenge our participants to take part in creating, rather than just learning, the material. All courses are taught in English, and BSME instructors have had experience teaching both at the secondary level and college level. Class sizes are small. BSME classes are held at the College International Budapest, near the city center, together with other study abroad programs, including BSM. (Note: Summer@BSME participants will also complete a week-long field experience at a mathematics camp for secondary students.)
