The Imre Ujhelyi Secondary and Higher Technical School
of Food Industry

Csermajor - according to students’ opinion – is the Oxford of dairymen. All the technical experts who belong to the elites of large-scale dairy industry graduated from here.

Nowdays, to help our students to find employment more easily, they receive training for the food industry as well. To satisfy the demands of the modern food industry, more knowledge, responsibility and exemplary behaviour is required from both teachers and studens alike.

The constant effort to satisfy these demands characterize the past and the present of our school. 

 

The training of students for the Hungarian dairy industry began in 1889 at a farm which had been rented from the Bavarian princely estate. In 1929 the school was transferred to Csermajor in the former Esterházy estate, and within the vicinity of Vitnyéd. It has carried out under the common direction its basic task: the theoretical and wide-ranging practical training of prospective experts of the dairy industry.

From 1950s the institute worked as an agricultural secondary grammar school and technical school of the diary industry. Experts of dairy industry, cheese and butter production graduated from the school.

Until 1968 only intermediate level training was given in Csermajor for the dairy industry.

 

In 1989 we established – in addition the normal training - a five-year technical school for regular students.

In 1995 secondary grammar school for skilled workers was introduced, where they could take final school leaving examinations.

From 1998 new subjects, such as hospitality, advertising and marketing were taught.

Our schoolhas also gone on to train managers for the food industr; students who have graduated from our school are sought after and welcomed by food factories everywhere. Some of our students are well-known directors and managers in the food industry.

 

The General Assembly of Local Government approved the educational aims of our school, where the program has meant opening towards the training of experts at an advance level of vocational training.

As our chemistry and microbiology laboratories have excellent facilities we are planning to start the training of analysts and laboratory technicians.

Our students, after graduating from the technical school or vocational school, can take entrance examinations to the College of Food industry at Budapest and at Szeged, or to the Agricultural College at Mosonmagyaróvár.
