Shamukhammet Pashchyev, Turkmenistan. Student of the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics, laureate of Russian national award "Student of the Year"

Since my freshman year I've been living the student life to the fullest. I study well, write scientific articles, receive an increased academic scholarship, am socially active and have been my faculty's Head of the student self-governing body for several years. I am also a Head of a cybersports club and a member of our university's standup comedy Club of the Funny and Inventive.

Each day I discover something new. I am sure that you can achieve a lot if you want it, and I strive towards the goals I've set for myself. I have a lot of plans for future. But I am sure of one thing — everything that the Karachay-Circassian State University has given me cannot be overestimated, and I will remain grateful to my alma mater for the knowledge, experience, self-development opportunities.

Anna Cheatwood, USA. Undergraduate of the Karachay-Circassian State University Philology Institute

I've had interest in foreign languages since childhood, my dream was to visit Europe, to see Russia. I've entered the KCSU Master's program in the English Language mostly because I enjoy the magnificent mountains, lush nature, good climate, successfully developing tourism industry. This is great for promoting top-level tourist services where skilled interpreters are in high demand. Thanks to the support from my teachers and the university management, I have created a project called "English Vacation in the Mountains" for the students who plan to work in tourism and translating, as well as for those who try to improve their international communication skills and obtain an experience in talking to native speakers.

Yalkap Kasymov, Turkmenistan. Student of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Geography and founder of Karakum dance ensemble, the winner and awardee of all-Russian and regional contests

I decided to start the Karakum ensemble when I was a freshman. I was homesick, missing our traditions and culture. While talking to other students from my country, I realized that I was not alone in my homesickness. That's how an idea was born — to create a space for young people where we can gather, share our memories of Turkmenistan, show the culture of our homeland to the locals. My idea was supported by the university management, and we decided to start a dance ensemble.
