My first year in Russia was one of the best in my life. I learned one of the most popular languages in the world thanks to the intensive training program and the teachers who took care of our studies, health, living conditions. They were like a second family to us.
Thanks to the tours held by the university, I got acquainted with one of the most beautiful places in Russia – Kazan city. This city is really worth visiting because of its natural beauty, ancient history, and cultural diversity. Besides, I got acquainted and made friends with students from different countries, learned about different mentalities, cultures, and ideas.

I already have one education that I got in Bulgaria, but I decided to get a second one. I found out that there was an opportunity to study in Russia, and I want to thank the Russian Culture and Information Center in the city of Sofia for this chance. As I have Russian roots, I decided to try, and KNRTU – KAI chose me. I am proud to be one of the KAI students. I hope that KAI will also be proud of me someday.

The preparatory faculty was a surprise to me. When I came for the first time, I thought I would study the language only. But we visited museums and theaters. We got so interested that we fell in love with Russian culture. We learned a lot, saw and got to know a lot of things. KNRTU-KAI offers excellent education. Thank you for that!

Giuseppe Giannino, POLIBA University, Italy. Exchange student
When I was leaving Italy, I knew nothing about Kazan. But when I got to know the city better, I liked it very much. I managed to see and do a lot of things during four months of my study placement, I learned a lot of new things about science, and I am so grateful to the university for this opportunity.
KAI always helped us, and we had no problems with courses and visas. We lacked nothing –everything was at its best. I advise international students to take a study placement at KAI because you won't feel lonely there and this university will give you the knowledge you won't gain at home. Local people are good, the university and teachers welcomed us. Russia has a different culture, but you shouldn’t be afraid of it.
