On May 13, awarding ceremony was held in the SUSU Activity Hall for winners and prize holders from Chelyabinsk. Organisers of Zvezda Multi-Profile Engineering Olympiad handed honorary credentials to more than 500 people coming to the ceremony.

“As per tradition, a large number of participants chose the categories of Russian Language and Social Studies. 2 new competition directions – International Relations and Theory and Practice of Translation – excited a lot of interest as well. The number of students who became prize holders of the Olympiad twice or more has also increased. Zvezda Multi-Profile Engineering Olympiad in not just professionally oriented. It is intended to give a chance for everyone to demonstrate their abilities in intellectual activity,” says Deputy Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs, Yulia Bolotina.

Yulia Bolotina noted that the Olympiad is supported by administrations of municipalities in many cities and districts of the Chelyabinsk region: Chelyabinsk, Magnitogorsk, Snezhinsk, Ashinsky district, etc.

For a 9th-grade student from School No.12 of Chelyabinsk, Maksim Shamshurin, this is not the first time of participating in the Olympiad. Two years ago, Maksim got a second-degree certificate in Social Sciences. This time, he also got a second-degree certificate, but in the sphere of Jurisprudence.

“To me, this is an interesting and unusual sphere of knowledge, so I wanted to try myself. Moreover, I have friends at SUSU who study to become lawyers. Having talked to them, I wanted to test my knowledge in the sphere of jurisprudence and maybe also get enrolled to the Institute of Law. I loved the assignments and I would like to say thanks to the people who made them. Completing them was a great pleasure.”

Student of School No.104, Veronika Zakharova, took part in Zvezda Multi-Profile Engineering Olympiad in the category of Social Sciences. On the main stage of SUSU, she was handed a third-degree certificate.

“It wasn’t difficult for me to complete assignments of the Olympiad because I know social sciences well. I would like to get enrolled to the Institute of Architecture and Construction at SUSU and become an architect. I will surely take part in the Olympiad next year!”
