The Széchenyi István College for Advanced Studies (Hungarian: Széchenyi István Szakkollégium – SZISZ) is a distinctive member of the college movement, consisting of several similar colleges, operating in the Hungarian higher education system. Its main goal is to enable all members to achieve a high level of knowledge in economics and social sciences and to master academic skills in a democratic, deeply communal environment. Based on its three-decade-long experience with student associations, the college actively contributes to the shaping of university public life.
