– Today we celebrate Russian Students’ Day. On the one hand, the holiday is quite young, but on the other hand, it has long-standing academic traditions. It dates back to the year Moscow University was founded, which turns 270 this year. Our students today are active, goal-oriented and proactive individuals. They successfully demonstrate themselves in science, sports, creativity and public life, demonstrating a high level of knowledge, talent and responsibility. The university is proud of the achievements of its students. It is in the students that are the assets of the university, the region and the whole country, – says Rector Pavel Moiseev. – On this day, I want to wish all students enthusiasm, energy, everything that is characteristic of youth. Soak up knowledge and all the wonderful things that the university gives you. Spend your student years productively. And, of course, make friends and communicate. Let this day forever remain your holiday.
The best students of the University were awarded for their achievements in research, design, creative, social and sports activities. The Derzhavin University students were presented with letters of gratitude and gifts from the university's partners.
A dance program called “Student Boom” was prepared for the children to the hits of the cover band “Martians” and Tambov DJ Bartez, as well as a prize draw.
Rector Pavel Moiseev held a meeting with Derzhavin University students in the format of an open dialogue. They discussed current topics of education and science development, as well as changing the university brand. Students asked questions that concerned them and made proposals for the development of the University.
The winners and prize winners of the photo and video competition "Derzhavin University in the Lens - 2024" and the student creativity festival "Time of the First" were awarded.
The Derzhavin University students also took part in the festival "Student's Day: a Marathon of Ideas, Creativity and Knowledge". Master classes, quizzes, a film screening, board games, intellectual battles and other activities were prepared for the children. They tried themselves in different professions in the workshop "Labor is Cool!", learned to defend their own point of view and developed argumentation skills in "Studbattle", and also tested their knowledge of the traditions of the holiday in the quiz "Student Mosaic", played "Mafia", "Monopoly" and "Jenga".
– This year’s Student’s Day was absolutely unforgettable! Everyone was dancing at the disco, it was fun and positive, – says fourth-year student of the Advertising and Public Relations program Ekaterina Abusafia. – And then the festival – so many venues, so many different activities! I learned a lot of new things, tried so many things! I took part in a quiz about the traditions of the holiday, it was quite difficult, but interesting. I especially remember the game of Imaginarium – I never thought it could be so exciting. It’s great that the university made such a holiday where everyone can find something to their liking and take part in something interesting!
The celebration of Student's Day will conclude with mass ice skating at the Derzhavin University Ice Rink.
