Dedication to students is a unique celebration because it is the first time for every freshman. It is important to spend it brightly and cheerfully, so that memories remain for a lifetime. Russian and foreign students of the International Faculty of BSU organized an event in honor of the dedication of students, which took place on Thursday on the stage of Cultural Center “Khudozhestvenny”.
The Russian Student Parade was held in Irkutsk on September 14. 770 activists of Baikal State University took part in the solemn procession along the main streets of the city. Traditionally, students of our university are distinguished by their large number, brightness and creativity.
The organizational meeting with full-time postgraduate students was held by the First Vice-rector-Rector for Scientific Work of Baikal State University, Professor Oleg Gribunov. He noted that the main task of each graduate student is to write and defend a PhD thesis, and the university has all the opportunities for this. Today the university has three dissertation councils in five areas of study: the council for economic sciences - one major, the council for technical sciences - two majors and the council for legal sciences - also two majors. In addition, the uniqueness of BSU lies in the fact that the university offers a symbiosis of majors that complement each other.
Project-based learning at Baikal State University began in the new academic year. Students of the Department of Construction Economics and Real Estate Management conducted field research on the quality of the urban environment as part of the course “Environmental Design”.
Maria Vasilkova, a member of the State Duma of the Russian Federation from the Irkutsk region, a member of the Duma Committee on Industry and Trade, and a former graduate of the university, visited Baikal State University. She talked to the university staff, young scientists, students and teachers.
