Elena Chabdarova, BSU public relations specialist and editor of the newspaper "Baikal State University", met with international students in the reading room of the BSU Central Scientific Library. Hongxin Pei from the city of Manchuria (PRC) told about her plans, how she chose Baikal State University for her studies. The girl studies linguistics (Russian as a foreign language) at the International Faculty.

Three students of the preparatory faculty from the West African state of Togo also came to talk to each other. The students from the Togolese Republic are studying at BSU for the first time. Magloire Semowo, Elie Aggosu and Malame Yakinambe told about life in their country, about their parents, about how they miss their homeland and that they did not even know each other before coming to Siberia.

Pei Hongxin loves studying at Baikal State University and has already made progress in learning Russian. The same can be said about Magloire. Although he will be studying for a bachelor's degree in a year, but unlike his compatriots, who will become master's students in a year, he is already practically fluent in Russian. The guy started studying the language at a one-month course in the city of Yaroslavl, and having studied at BSU for only three months, he already speaks Russian quite well.

In a conversation with the journalist, they shared their plans related to higher education at BSU.

"I chose Baikal State University because I found out on the Internet that Mongolian and Chinese students also study here. I will study well and hope to successfully finish the management program in economics here," said Assogba Semevo Magloire, a student of the BSU Preparatory Faculty.
