Pro Jure

In spring 2015, law students of the University of Szeged founded the independent student organization Pro Jure – Association for Szeged Law Students. One of their goals is to organize academic and recreational programs to make university life more colorful, and they also try to draw attention to important social issues.

Their ultimate goal is to create a true professional community, working in cooperation with other similar communities and scientific student circles. In recent years, their association has grown to become a leading organization, and not only within the faculty.

Their members organize and run their own colorful programs, where everyone can find something to suit their interests. These include SLAMESET, the joint competition of Slam Poetry Szeged and Pro Jure, or the now traditional Teacher-Student Activity. They are proud to have initiated the Jurist Cup, a national sports event where the best law faculties of the country could compete. In recent years, they have also contributed a little to the educational reform that has been underway at the Faculty of Law in Szeged.
