From December 15 to 20, 2024, the Expocentre in Moscow hosted the final of the Russian National Award "Student of the Year" - a unique competitive and educational project for students of educational institutions of the Russian Federation who have special achievements in academic, scientific, sports, creative and social life.

Nurgazy Kyzy Kanykei, a student of Penza State University from Kyrgyzstan, competed for the title of "International Student of the Year" from the Penza Region. The competition included several stages: self-presentation, a speech on the topic "Living in Russia", testing "Values of Russia", a business game.

When I went on stage, my heart was pounding with excitement, but at the same time I felt an incredible surge of energy and support. Each participant was unique, and I was amazed at how many talented and goal-oriented people gathered in one place. We all put our dreams, efforts and hopes into this competition. When the winner was announced, I experienced a whole range of emotions - joy for the winner, pride for myself and my friends, and also a little sadness that this stage of our lives was coming to an end. But most importantly, I realized that this competition is not only about winning, but also about friendship, support and inspiration. I took with me many bright memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life. This experience has become an important step for me on the path to new achievements and self-improvement,” shared Nurgazy Kyzy Kanykey.
