Sasan Chennarany, Iran. PhD student Institute of Civil Engineering

I graduated Master's degree program at SPbPU and decided to continue my postgraduate studies. It was important for me to get a scholarship, so when I found out about admission under the quota of the Government of the Russian Federation, I decided to try. I had concerns that this was a complicated process, but it turned out to be quite the opposite," said Sasan Chenarani, "I filled out the necessary documents, prepared a portfolio, and took part in interviews with Embassy staff - these were the key stages of preparation. As a result, I am studying at SPbPU, which I am very happy about. I like my research direction, the team of professors and students, and the general atmosphere on campus.
