– NOTE TO STUDENTS REGARDING AIT —
>
> I am writing to encourage you to consider an extraordinary
> study abroad program, AIT Budapest, for students interested
> in computing, design, computational biology, and IT entrepreneurship.
>
> The AIT program has a first-rate faculty including professors
> such as Erno Rubik (inventor of the Rubik’s Cube and recent
> recipient of the U.S. Outstanding Contributions to Science
> Education Award), an innovative curriculum including courses
> such as “Computer Vision for Digital Postproduction” taught
> by faculty affiliates from Colorfront Studios (recent
> recipients of an Academy Award for technical contributions),
> and a guest lecture series that brings prominent speakers to campus.
>
> All classes are conducted in English on AIT’s lovely campus
> on the banks of the Danube River. Students live in vibrant
> neighborhoods of Budapest and have ample opportunities to
> interact with Hungarian students and explore Hungary and the region.
>
> AIT is small and friendly, with typical class sizes of 5-15
> students. Recent U.S. AIT students have come from Harvey
> Mudd College, Pomona College, Princeton University, Skidmore
> College, among others. The program also includes a small
> number of Hungarian students.
>
> Applications for Fall 2011 are due on April 1, 2011 (although
> you can submit earlier, in which case you are likely to hear
> back from AIT earlier).
>
> The AIT website and application materials are available at:
>
> www.ait-budapest.com
>
> Prof. Ran Libeskind-Hadas (ran@cs.hmc.edu) and Prof. Michael
> Orrison (orrison@math.hmc.edu) at Harvey Mudd College are
> serving as the North American Co-Directors for AIT and are
> eager to answer any questions that you might have.
