On February 27, as part of the All-Russian campaign “Yolka Zhelaniy” (Wish Tree), the cherished dream of tenth-grader Elizaveta Tsaregorodtseva from the Saratov Region came true. The schoolgirl was able to visit the Higher School of Economics, talk to students and teachers, and walk around the university building. Liza learned first-hand how to enter one of the best universities in Russia, as well as why studying here is difficult but exciting.
The most cherished wishes tend to come true, and that’s a fact. Elizaveta Tsaregorodtseva took part in the “Yolka Zhelaniy” campaign for the third year in a row, and finally her ball was taken off the tree by the Russian Minister of Energy Sergey Tsivilev. Liza’s dream came true: she went to Moscow to visit Faculty of World Economy and World Politics (FMEiMP) HSE University.
“When I was choosing what wish to make, I was thinking about my future – about further education, about entering a university. That’s why I wrote about HSE, I wanted to see it, get to know the faculty,” the schoolgirl said. She is interested in studying languages, so her future path should be connected with the international direction.
“I also like economics and mathematics, I like to count and analyze economic processes. When I learned about studying global economics at the National Research University Higher School of Economics, I realized that this is exactly what suits me,” noted Elizaveta.
She was delighted with the HSE: “When I woke up in the morning, I felt excitement and anticipation, and when I saw the HSE building, my heart fluttered.”
Deputy Dean for work with applicants and graduates of the faculty Anna Zhikhareva, as well as fourth-year students of the OP ” gave Liza, her mother and Daria Gorbunova, a representative of the Ministry of Energy, a tour of the buildings of the Faculty of Economics and Management.World Economy” and members of the Student Council Mikhail Zavgorodniy and Vasily Arzumanyan. They told about all the features of studying at the HSE.
“We study economics with all the foreign policy circumstances in mind, as part of global world processes. It turns out to be a complex history that is the most honest in relation to our students. We pay less attention to the theory that does not work in practice or works, but not always,” Anna Zhikhareva noted.
Mikhail Zavgorodniy explained that students get acquainted with the basic principles of economics for the first year and a half to two years, then they are divided into trajectories depending on the interests of each student. “You can delve into finance or study a specific region. If you choose Chinese, then there are many subjects related to Chinese culture, economics and foreign policy,” he said.
“It is important to know that the policy of our program is that any economist should have a strong foundation in mathematics, so in the first year we teach mathematical analysis, linear algebra, and discrete mathematics,” added Vasily Arzumanyan.
Liza Tsaregorodtseva asked students many questions about HSE. For example, she was interested in how student life goes outside of studies. “We have an abundance of events – scientific, cultural, and entertaining, you can participate in everything,” Mikhail Zavgorodniy answered.
They told Liza about the help senior students give to first-year students and about the work of the study office. “Studying is difficult, students often ask: when will it be easy? When you have your diploma in hand,” shared Tatyana Bukanova, a specialist in educational and methodological work at the National Research University Higher School of Economics.
