160 school students from Donetsk People's Republic visit Lobachevsky University

160 students from Volnovakha (Donetsk People's Republic) visited Lobachevsky University as part of the My Russia project. They were greeted in the assembly hall by UNN Rector Oleg Trofimov, Vice-Rector for Youth Policy and Educational Work Elena Chumankina and Vice-Rector for Strategic Development Nikita Avralev.

During their visit, the Donetsk students learned about the main advantages of studying at the University, this year's admission rules and were given tours of UNN faculties, laboratories and the University Museum.

My Russia project participants have already travelled to St. Petersburg and Moscow. Nizhny Novgorod is the third city they have visited. This programme's highlights include interactive excursions, which allow students to get acquainted with the regional historical context and the development of cultural, educational and social initiatives. The project also has a careers guidance element.

"Our young guests met with scientists, visited key departments and our History Museum. I am sure they had a lot of impressions. We look forward to seeing them among our applicants!" - noted Oleg Trofimov, Rector of Lobachevsky University.
