The Center of Arts, Humanities and Sciences and the Center for Agricultural and Applied Economic Sciences of the University of Debrecen in co-operation with the Hortobágy, Bükk and Aggtelek National Parks have created a research center to make Hungarian biological and ecological research work more effective.
The co-operation of the university centers and the national parks is rather professional than infrastructural. Their aim is to develop and publish new research themes, especially the examination of amphibians and the parasitism they are affected by because of the climatic changes. The climate changes will represent an important subfield of the researches.
The directors of the national parks are happy about the co-operation because together with the state-maintained institutions they can have bigger potentials in competitions.
