CEU’s Opening Ceremony, held September 16, was dedicated to the University’s new students this academic year - 563 starting master’s programs and 94 starting doctoral programs – who come from 110 countries.
“This is a historic moment for the University. I feel the history of this place coursing through my veins.

He acknowledged the “heroic work” of CEU Board Member William Newton-Smith, “who’s most responsible for, after George Soros, the creation of CEU.”

The new CEU Library will open in October 2016, final opening date will be confirmed later.
Library staff are in the process of shifting the most heavily used collections from the closed stacks into the current Reading Halls to prepare for the move so they will be more easily accessible in the new Library. There’ll be room for about 2 years growth for new books in the new Reading Halls. The new Readings Halls will have more space overall than the current Reading Halls.
