Since 1979 there has been a sector translator training and since 2003 as professional education there has been economic and social science translator and interpreter training at the University of Pécs Faculty of Economics. As part of this training a demand had been occurred for terminology education. (Terminology, Terminology and translation course, Computer-assisted translation seminar). Since 1998 it has been taught in English and German. The stages of development are being shown by conference participations, organizing own conferences (2003, 2005), researches, international projects, publications and doctoral theses on this topic.
