ÉKME University of Civil Engineering and Transport Technology 1955-1967
Ministry of Education University Computer Center (ESZK), from 1968. (Previously see BCE data sheet!)
This Computer Center, located on the 11th floor of the Budapest University of Technology, did not belong to BME, although most of its “clients” came from BME. The task of ESZK was in principle to serve the computer needs of all universities in Budapest. Its users, specialists from educational institutions, solved their educational and research tasks here – on Razdan-3 computers. At that time, neither BME nor the other large universities in Budapest had their own computers.

Additions to the predecessor text:
Institutum Geometrico-Hydrotechnicum was the first civil engineering training institute in Europe, in which technical sciences were taught within a university organization.
The Ipartanoda is named after Palatine József Habsburg.
It was created under the name Joseph Industrieschule from the merger of the Institutum and the Ipartanoda.
September 30, 1856: foundation of the Joseph Polytechnicum, which was upgraded to a higher education institution.
József Technical University: this was the first technical higher education institution in the world to have the word university in its name
The Royal Hungarian Palatine Joseph University of Technology and Economics, with its 98 departments, is the largest higher education institution in the country, which united the Joseph University of Technology, the Sopron College of Mining and Forestry Engineering, the College of Veterinary Medicine and the Faculty of Economics of the University.
