When choosing a university, I was motivated by the prospects I'll have after graduation and the skills I'll acquire and be able to use in my future career. Now I am a fifth-year student and work for a construction company. I chose VSTU on my friends' recommendations.
In the beginning, it was not easy to study, but our teachers always supported us. Besides teaching a degree program, they shared the cases from their professional life, tackled practical challenges from their personal experience.

Studying in Russia had been my dream since childhood when I heard the story of Gagarin, the first human in space. I studied physics and mathematics for a long time, and then I went to Voronezh.
It's not easy to study in a foreign country, that's true. But I like the way our university treats international students – teachers are always helpful. I got comfortable quickly and even found a job in my field. Now I am getting practical experience and designing buildings, but I hope to set up my company in the future.

I already have a degree in Architecture, and I also decided to get a degree in engineering at VSTU.
In the beginning, I was not sure that I would stay in Russia for long. Quite a new experience, different culture, different approaches to the construction industry. But as time went on, this became a sort of professional challenge for me. Now I can compare construction solutions of different countries and choose the best strategies in my practice. I am in love with my profession and ready to take part in projects even for free to gain new experience.

Phon Samnang, Cambodia
Approaches to education are quite different in my country and Russia. VSTU teachers give us a lot of theoretical knowledge and always strive to put us on the track of creativity. When I was doing my first projects for a real customer, I felt an enormous sense of responsibility, but everything worked out. Now I want to find my unique original style so that people can recognize my buildings. I like blurring the line between the old and the new. My basic principle is respect for the history of location and nature!
