Also the first Finnish
teacher training seminar was established in Jyväskylä in 1863, and by 1966
it had developed to a
university. Today, the University has six faculties with over 12 000
students. Since the first
Hungarian lecturer in 1975 the University has had a growing role in
Hungarian Studies. In 1990, the
Hungarian Studies programme was established. Due to its widespread
international cooperation, the
programme has a central role in the development of Hungarian Studies.
