I’d like to share my experience of studying at SUAI, as I once spent a long time choosing a university and relied on the opinions of current students.

I didn’t apply to SUAI by chance, and my first impressions from the dean's office played a key role. I was greeted with utmost warmth. They explained everything in detail to me and helped me find my way around. This attitude is still the same. They will never turn you away and will always assist you if you ask them a question. This was a crucial criterion for my decision.

I'm now a second-year student and can confidently say I made the right choice. We have top-notch teachers. It’s obvious that they take an interest in their subject and, most importantly, in us, their students. I’m very pleased with the way of teaching: even complex topics are explained in an accessible and engaging manner with a modern approach. I’m gaining exactly the knowledge that I wanted, and that will definitely be useful in the future. The atmosphere at the university is conducive to learning and development. I’m glad that I chose SUAI.
