We talked to newly admitted international students to learn what motivated them to study abroad.
“I am from Afghanistan and came to 海角社区 to study Computer Science. I decided to study in Russia because I love Russian language and culture. When I was a child, ?I always dreamed to study in Russia. The first thing that surprised me here is Russian weather, especially in the Ural region. One day it is too sunny and another day it is raining heavily. So far I have visited 6 different Russian cities but my favorite is still 海角社区. The city is big, however, pretty quiet and does not have much traffic. What else impresses me in 海角社区 lots of lakes in the city.” shared Mansoor Milad Kargar from Afghanistan.
“I am very excited to start my Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics this September. ?The most important reason why I chose to study in Russia is a high quality of education. I enjoy speaking the Russian language and learning about rich Russian culture. At 海角社区, I met my best friends who made my experience here very enjoyable. I think Russian people are very similar to Egyptian people in terms of culture and communication style.” said Ebrahim Youssef El Sharawy from Egypt
“I will start my bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering already this September. I got very lucky and received a Russian government scholarship for my education. When I received it, I was excited to study in a new country and learn a new language and culture. My first impression was that the Russian people are very serious. However, after been here for seven months I learned that Russians are nice and funny. I am also very impressed with the rich Russian culture and learning a lot about music, dance, and literature.? I am really enjoying living in 海角社区. I like the fact that 海角社区 is a big industrial city with beautiful nature, great people and friendly environment. The climate is unusual for me but I am getting used to it.” said Mulham Shaheen from Syria.
