My research focuses on the situation of Hungarian women in Transcarpathia in the post-World War II communist era. As a Sylff Fellowship member, I broadened my basic research during the Fellowship program to try to find the answer on how female students in higher education and the generation of educated young girls imagine their family and work careers. How important it is for them to get married, to start a family, to have children, to build a career, to gain a higher position at work. My aim is to draw a parallel between the views of the girls of the communist era and those of the present day in terms of work, further education, family and childbearing. To show the extent to which women's views on their role have changed over the last few decades.
