Within the framework of the programme “Language for Mobility”, a traditional round-table meeting with foreign and Russian exchange students took place on March 21.
The following Russian students shared their experience and impressions of studying abroad:
- Alekseev Bayaskhalan, a student of the Institute of Natural Resources (TPU) and Lipovka Anna, a student of the Institute of High Technology Physics (TPU) - Technical University of Vienna (Austria)
- Кhudoleeva Olga, a student of the Institute of Cybernetics (TPU) – Nova University of Lisbon (Portugal)
- Zlobina Anastasiya, a Ph.D. student of the Institute of Natural Resources (TPU) – internships in China, France and Norway
The foreign students told about the opportunities of taking part in academic exchange programmes in their home universities:
- Mehl Falk - Technical University of Vienna (Austria)
- Andersen Lasse - Aarhus University (Denmark)
- Ellmers Annemarie - Chemnitz University of Technology (Germany)
- Venkataraman Vivek - Indian Institute of Technology Madras (India)
Moreover, Giles Skrine, Lucy Price and Lucy Hunter, who arrived at TPU to study Russian, gave a presentation about the University of Bristol (Great Britain).
The meeting happened to be lively and interesting, TPU students had a chance to get necessary information first hand and exchange contacts with the guests.
At the end of the meeting a group photo was taken and the guests were given TPU souvenirs as the keepsakes of the event. Besides that, the attendees chose three best presentations, which were awarded special prizes. Mehl Falk, Andersen Lasse and Venkataraman Vivek became the winners.
We hope that all the participants enjoyed communicating with the guests and it will help our students decide on their future exchange programmes.
