Nomin Buren Baatar Chimeg, Mongolia

I've been living in Lipetsk for four years already. I study at the Institute of Psychology. I got a state-funded place within the ministerial quota and chose this city from the six ones offered to me.

There are no foreigners in my group. In the beginning, Russian guys kept me at a distance, but now we get along very well. They accepted me as their friend. I like the city very much. It is peaceful and quiet, and I'm not afraid to go outside in the evening.

Places Of Interest

The Lipetsk mineral springs with chloride and sulfate water were discovered in 1805. The city obtained the status of a resort center. The chemical content of Lipetsk mineral water is similar to that of the mineral waters of famous German resorts Liebenstein and Termont.

The famous Novolipetsk steel mill located on the left bank of the Voronezh river is almost as big as the city!

The Galichya Mountain reserve has plants that are completely uncharacteristic of the Russian Plain.

The Kudykina Mountain amusement park is located near Kamenka village. It has attractions for kids, a reserve with exotic animals, a wooden fortress, and a small lake with a beach.

Here you can taste the most delicious cucumbers, white kvass with thyme, pancake cake, monastery honey, and even local wine (over 130 grape varieties are grown in the region), duck and cabbage soup simmered in the Russian stove, many liquors made from local berries and herbs.

Shahruh Bekjanov, Turkmenistan

After successful graduation from the preparatory department, I started studying biology and chemistry at the university.

I think that the Department of Russian as a Foreign Language at LSPU is one of the best in Russia. After a year spent at the preparatory department, I had a very good command of Russian. This allowed me to continue my studies here.

Adaptation

The teachers actively help students during both classes and extracurricular activities, improving their oral communication skills and replenishing their ethnic and cultural knowledge.

International students take part in various educational and mass cultural events such as student fairs, the Russian Language Club meetings.

At the International Friendship Club, students tell about their native countries, share their customs and traditions, show national costumes, perform songs and dances.

The tutor helps international newcomers with their adaptation. The psychologist assists in resolving complex life problems and conflicts. Joint meetings are regularly organized in the dormitories.

The most creative students take part in making videos for student social media platforms.

To familiarize students with Russian customs and traditions, the university organizes tours around the city and region, to theaters, museums, exhibitions of all kinds. In winter, students go to the ski resort and take part in Russian winter entertainment.

Athletics

Sport plays an important part in international students' life. Twice a week students work out in the university sports hall and in the new gym that can be rightfully considered the best one in the Lipetsk Region.

African students organized their football team. They take an active part in city and regional relay races, Universiades, and traditionally win prizes in LSPU football and basketball championships.

Ismael Mohammed Tamarhan Ismael, Iraq

I've been living in Lipetsk for three years. I study English and French at the Institute of Philology. It was my long-nurtured dream to study in Russia.

I really like living in Lipetsk, the atmosphere is friendly. I'd like to pursue further studies here. Certainly, it's difficult to study on a level with Russian guys. Russian differs much from my native Kurdish—we even write the other way.
