Students’ life

Hello, everyone. My name is Max and I am 19 years old. I am a second-year student of the University of Architecture and civil engineering and I am really proud that I study at this educational institution. 

To begin with, the university is a great place to study at. I am really happy that I am a student of this university. First of all, we study in a pleasant friendly atmosphere. Intelligent, cheerful, and benevolent guys are always around me. They are friendly and are always ready to help. If I am in trouble, I often ask my group mates for help. My university friends always support me in a tight situation and I answer in kind.

As for the course of studies, it is very informative and cognitive. We do a lot of profession-oriented subjects which are to my liking. Some students study architectural design and learn to project buildings and parks. Others study geodesy and learn to collect and analyze spatial information about the land. What is more, we have an opportunity to get an extended education within the verge of the university. We can take the course “An interpreter in the sphere of professional communication”. To have a good command of English is very important for a future profession. This diploma can help me to get a good job and make a successful career. I will work in the specialty but I will participate in the foreign economic activity of an enterprise. It can help me to prepare texts of agreements and travel on business to foreign countries. In my opinion, it is very important for my professional future.

In spite of the interesting course of studies all students are very different. Some of them are organized and disciplined persons, the rest (другие) are lazy and work by fits and starts. Of course, it is not so easy to be a student. The students are always short of time. We often face problems with studies, but we do our best to cope with difficulties. No doubt, it is vital for students to have the place of residence. As for me, I am a resident of N. Novgorod. But in the university there are a lot of non-local students. They can live in the hostel if their native city is far from N. Novgorod. If these guys live in the suburbs, the university doesn’t provide them with home.( общежитие) To my mind, guys lead a merry life in the hostel. But if they have problems, they can share joys and sorrows with their roommates and friends. Of course there are some students who rent a flat.

On the whole, the university is a remarkable place for studies where you can get both a basic and an extended education. We study profession-oriented subjects which are very important for the future. You can find good friends who will help you out in trouble. It is to my liking that friendly guys surround me. It is great to be a student of this university, I swear.
