Kornélia Somogyi Ambrus

After graduating from university, he started working as a teaching assistant at the Department of Basic Subjects of the Technical College of Light Industry, the legal predecessor of Óbuda University (ÓE), (teaching mathematics, physics, and from 1977 onwards primarily computer science).
He remained a lecturer at this institution throughout his life (until and even after his retirement). He became an assistant professor in 1981. After the Department of Computer Science became independent in 1983, he continued teaching computer science at this department. He was appointed associate professor in 1992. After the reorganization of the departments, he rejoined the teaching of mathematics as a lecturer at the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science from 1993 (his other subjects were: informatics, mathematical programming, database management, decision support systems).
Meanwhile, between 1995-98, he also taught mathematics at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Budapest University of Technology (BME).
From 2000, he was the deputy director of the then-established Institute of General Informatics and Multimedia at the University of Budapest; from 2004, he was the deputy director of education - until the institute's closure. In 2007, he developed the curriculum for the environmental informatics major at the University of Budapest's environmental engineering department, and then became the head of the major. At the same time, he was the deputy director of education at the Institute of Media Technology (later Media Technology and Light Industry) - where the teaching of informatics was also included.
After his retirement (2015), he continued to teach as a lecturer at the ÓE.

The main directions of his research activities were: combinatorial optimization; mathematical modeling and computer solutions of tasks related to pavement management and asset management in general in the field of transportation science; and the application of informatics in the field of environmental protection.
He was a member of the János Bolyai Mathematical Society (since 1977) and the János Neumann Computer Science Society (NJSZT, since 1981).
