A delegation of South Ural State University has returned from Ekaterinburg, where a big-scale 16th Eurasian Economics Youth Forum (EEYF) was held. Our students were not only guests, but also actively participated in the events.
Ural State University of Economics and Ekaterinburg EXPO International Exhibition Center acted as the forum venues. Guests from 117 countries participated in this forum. Students from the SUSU School of Economics and Management attended the forum not as common visitors, but as its official guests and participants.
Thanks to this trip, our university achieved significant contest results:
- Viktoriia Shmykova (her advisor is Anna Shishkina from the Department of Economics and Finance of the School of Economics and Management) took the 2nd place in the International Online Olympiad on “Accounting, Analytical Theory and Practice in the Context of Digital Transformation”
- Danil Pavlov (his advisor is Olga Buslaeva from the Department of Digital Economy and Information Technologies of the School of Economics and Management) became a silver medallist in the International Competition of Applied Projects by Young Scientists and Students: “Applied IT Solutions in Science, Business, and Power Engineering”. His development was recognized as one of the best in the field of digital solutions for economics.
Both achievements are the result of hard work, support from the teaching staff and the ability to use the obtained knowledge in practice.
Our students also gained a wonderful experience of participating in international contests and Olympiads and they did well there:
1. Kseniia Bobrovtseva (her advisor is M.V. Nikiforova from the Department of Economic Theory, Regional Economics, and State and Municipal Management) participated in the International Competition of Scientific Works of Young Scientists and Students on “Assessment of Regulatory Impact in State and Municipal Management”
2. Nataliia Buslaeva and Zakhar Skobelkin (their advisor is Olga Buslaeva) took part in the International Competition of Applied Projects by Young Scientists and Students: “Applied IT Solutions in Science, Business, and Power Engineering”
3. Two teams from the Department of Industrial Economics and Project Management participated in the International Competition “Business Factory” and were awarded special prizes from the contest partners:
- Mariia Korolenko, Anastasiia Strelnikova, Polina Kalyonova, Veronika Lushchik (their advisor is Alena Levina from the Department of Management of the School of Economics and Management);
- Olga Pozdeeva, Anna Okisheva, Kseniia Kuznetsova (their advisor is Marina Litke from the Department of Industrial Economics and Project Management).
In the course of several days at the forum venues, international students of the Department of Management attended thematic sessions, participated in discussions with experts and socialized with their peers from dozens of countries. Such experience became an important step in the integration of our students into the professional community of the Eurasian Economic Union.
Deputy Director for Working with Talented Youth at the School of Economics and Management Larisa Morozova noted:
“The Eurasian Economics Youth Forum has once again confirmed that our university trains specialists who are capable of working in a multicultural environment and achieve victories at the international arena. Our international students have gained an invaluable experience of integration, while Viktoriia and Danil have proven that our students can compete with the best students from the near and far abroad.”
Our congratulations to the prize-winners, and we would like to thank all the delegation members for representing our university well!
