Contact: nemeth.andras (at) kutdiak (dot) hu

He was born in 2006 in Bratislava. He is currently a first-year student at the Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Informatics at Comenius University in Bratislava. In addition to physics and mathematics, history is also one of his main areas of interest.

In 2019, while competing at the local history conference Kincskeresők, he learned about the Carpathian Basin Scientific Student Conference (TUDOK). He later reached the 2022 TUDOK finals, where he won first prize in the Family and Life History Research section for his research into the life and career of a military ancestor. As a result, he was able to attend the XXVII National Student Conference, which gave him a deeper insight into the KutDiák movement, and he became part of a talented community of like-minded people. This provided strong motivation to continue his research work and activities within KutDiák.

With his work titled "For Family and Country – The Military Heroes of the Csörgey Family", which also focused on researching the careers of military heroes among his ancestors in his family, he won first place in the Family and Life History Research section at the 2024 TUDOK finals. He was invited to the XXVIII. National Student Conference, where, during the general meeting, he was elected Deputy Head of the Humanities and Social Sciences Department of the Hungarian Research Student Association.

Thanks to his two years of work in the student leadership team as Deputy Head of the Humanities and Social Sciences Department, he gained a lot of valuable experience, and his role in the movement further expanded. His motivation remained strong, and as both an organizer and participant in the XXX. National Student Conference, he was elected Head of the Humanities and Social Sciences Department of the Hungarian Research Student Association.

In addition to his school and research activities, he is also an active scout. He has been involved in scouting for more than a decade now and is a member of the Hungarian Scout Association in Slovakia. In October 2021, he earned a junior scout patrol leader certification and continues to serve as a patrol leader in the No. 76 Szenczi Molnár Albert Scout Group. He approaches his work with great enthusiasm and dedication, to help the development, education, and scouting skills of the children under his guidance. As a board member of the Hungarian Research Student Association student leadership, his primary goal is to promote the Hungarian Research Student Association, along with its competitions, conferences, and the numerous opportunities KutDiák offers to the students, within his home country of Slovakia, via the country tour.

I am extremely grateful to continue to be a member of the KutDiák community, as it has given me so much over the past few years. From my very first camp in Káptalanfüred, I realized that I had found my place within this wonderful community. My goal has been to remain a board member so that I can continue to be part of KutDiák, furthermore – as a student from Felvidék – to introduce the movement to students in my home region and contribute to creating a welcoming community for future KutDiák members, where they, too, can find their place.
