Bachelor’s student, Faculty of Architecture
I admire Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering. I found out about it just by searching on the internet for the best architectural university in Russia. That was back in 2015. I am now in my final year at the Faculty of Architecture. Since my first year here, I have been very impressed by the knowledge and experience I gained during my studies. It is an outstanding university – not only academically, but also in terms of extracurricular activities.
In my first year, I had difficulties with the Russian language, but the teachers and the Council of International Students helped me to solve my problems.
Since our university has had an e-learning platform for a long time, switching to distance learning and online communication with teachers during the pandemic was nothing new. I am proud to say that I will soon graduate from one of the best architecture and engineering universities in the world.
