9th Ball of the Óbuda University Doctoral School on Safety and Security Sciences (OE BDI)

The 9th annual ball of the Doctoral School on Safety and Security Sciences at Óbuda University was successfully held, continuing a meaningful tradition that strengthens not only social bonds but also the scientific community itself. The OE BDI represents an active scientific community where informal gatherings also play an important role alongside everyday academic work.

During the evening, participants met in a festive atmosphere, enjoyed conversations, music, and dancing, while reinforcing a shared community working for science. Events like this are not self-serving; they support the development of future scientific collaborations, new professional connections, and the long-term cohesion of the doctoral school.

The 9th OE BDI Ball once again demonstrated that tradition, unity, and community for science can go hand in hand. Thank you to everyone whose presence and contribution made this special evening possible!
