Rama Ghazala, Syria
I obtained my degree in Damascus. When I studied in Syria, I only got the highest scores, so I was invited to study Russian in Nizhny Novgorod. After completing the course, I embarked on a PhD degree at Gubkin University, where I do exciting research in geology. My country highly values my work. After completing my PhD degree, I will work for an oil company in Syria. They are already waiting for me.
I live on campus so far. Though I have little spare time, I take part in university events with great interest.
It's so interesting to live in Russia. That's quite a different world. I used to see the snow like in Moscow winter only in the fridge. In the beginning, everything seemed strange to me, but now I like Russian winter, beautiful fall, joyful spring, and even summer! Here it's different, always green, with lots of pleasant summer rains, which makes admirable Russian nature even more beautiful.

Kolo Kader Sekongo, Côte d'Ivoire. Fourth-year student, Faculty of Oil and Gas Field Development
I chose this field of study as the education obtained will make me a sought-after specialist in my country's petroleum industry.
Before I entered the university, I had been studying Russian and other subjects for a year. That time was exciting.
Moscow has lots of noteworthy museums and other buildings. I'll always remember my first visit to the metro. I saw the metro in Paris, but metro stations in the center of Moscow look like beautiful palaces faced with stones of different types. I could never imagine that!
I have a lot of friends at the university. My fellow students from Gubkin University will probably be my colleagues when I work for an oil company. In my country, it's customary to keep our alma mater in our memory and help each other.

The Club works with 22 fellow countrymen associations established at the university.
