By the Program of Academic Mobility

Friday, 24.01.20

Anastasia Borisova, a 3rd-year student of ChuvSU foreign languages faculty, passed training in the first semester of the 2019-2020 academic year at Henan University (China) as part of the academic mobility program  

. Anastasia says: "I wanted to visit China for a long time, I am attracted to this country, I like the language and culture, I am interested in learning something new, discovering new opportunities, and traveling. Documents for the six-month program were not difficult to collect, of course, I had to run a little, but it was worth it. 

I studied at the Chinese language courses, training was conducted in the Chinese language, which was a big plus for me. Speaking of training, I really enjoyed studying! There were not many classes a day, and there was enough time to walk around the city. At the end of the semester, I successfully passed the exams and received a certificate of education. My level of the Chinese language mastering has increased significantly. If at first I was shy to talk to people because of lack of confidence in my knowledge, then I was more or less free to communicate with the Chinese on simple topics. Of course, I still have something to strive for, but I am very happy about this progress in learning the language. 
In China, I mostly liked everything too. At first, of course, it was terribly unusual, since everything is different there: the air, the climate, food, even residents. People, by the way, were very kind and often helped. Over time, I got used to the traditional food, and I really got to like spicy food.

China is a developed country, where everything exists for the convenience its residents. I got so much used to it that when I arrived in Russia, I was surprised at first, how we could live without this or that service, thing. These last few months have been full of adventures for me, and I don't regret taking the risk and going. Thanks to this unforgettable experience, I fell in love with my life in China and am already starting to miss it. I hope I will return there in the future!».

"What Do I Care…»

Saturday, 28.12.19

The 6th issue of a popular science magazine "Chuvashia: Territory of Innovations"  was published.

The issue summarizing the results of the year began to be distributed on December, 26. We remind that a joint project of the Chuvash State University and the newspaper "Soviet Chuvashia" during a year and a half has been covering the activities of the research community and research in the framework of the largest grants of Chuvashia.

Digital monitoring of structural deformations, bee biocommunication, import-substituting copper wire coating, study of compression stenosis of the ventral trunk and the ways to overcome infection resistance are the key research topics described in the latest issue of the journal. However, in an ordinary layman these complex formulations may cause the question "What do I care?", to which the publications respond.

"Today's science is not something abstract and far from ordinary people. We at the University are convinced that our activities should meet the needs of our fellow citizens who are far from scientific laboratories and grant competitions", the rector of I. N. Ulianov ChuvSU, Andrey Aleksandrov, informs in his welcome letter.

However, it is only science: the publication also tells about other significant events in the life of the youth in Chuvashia in recent months. They include  contest “Miss and Mr. Studentship of Russia-2019”, which was held in Chuvashia for the first time, an international career guidance session "ChuvGoogol", sports achievements of University students and dozens of grants won by them for social projects.
