Summary/Abstract: Looking back the great traditions of teaching in Subotica were an important milestone for the foundation of the Hungarian Language Teaching Training Faculty at Novi Sad in 2006. In Vojvodina, this is the only institution of this kind where education is entirely Hungarian. The institution has a bachelor’s degree (BA) and a master's degree (MA) which are attended by certified kindergarten teachers and certified teachers, currently within five departments. Since the founding of the Faculty, the Curriculum has been revised several times to improve the quality of education and to meet student needs. In our study we are going to introduce and compare some of the new curricula of the certified kindergarten teachers and certified teachers. We are going to examine the number of the subject and the changes in them, the proportion of the compulsory and elective subjects, elective subjects, basic education, general education, and pedagogical and methodological subjects. In addition to monitoring the changes, we also evaluated the opinions of our students on the individual curricula for the period between 2010/2011 and 2016/2017. The change of the student opinions are also evaluated in relation to curriculum change.
