KSUAE International students took first award in the Republican Olympiad in Russian

On November 14-15, 2025, Kazan hosted a large-scale event: the Republican Olympiad in Russian as a Foreign Language among international students from universities in the Republic of Tatarstan. The event was supported by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Tatarstan.

The Olympiad brought together 230 international students studying at Tatarstan universities in undergraduate, specialist, and master's programs for whom Russian is not their native language. The competition was held in three categories: for BSc students in their first, second, third, and fifth years, and for master's students. Participants were divided into 12 teams representing their universities. The KSUAE team was presented by the following international students: 1st year: Touré Sékou (Côte d'Ivoire), Millemono Daniel Tamba (Guinea), Bavogi Simeon Koly (Guinea), Belhadj Hamza (Morocco), Agnau Hatim (Morocco); 2nd year: Mimouni Mohammed (Morocco), Mandhlazi Welkom (Zimbabwe), Mendoza Mojica Andreas Felipe (Colombia).

On the first qualifying day of the competition, teams completed written grammar and vocabulary assignments, answered questions on history of Russia. Following the first day, only three teams out of 12 advanced to the finals: KSUAE, Kazan Federal University and Kazan Energy University. On the second day, the Olympiad participants had to demonstrate their public speaking skills on a specific topic. Our students performed brilliantly in their oral presentations, presenting compelling arguments and engaging in discussions with their opponents and the jury on the following topics: "Should Parents Discuss Their Children?" and "The Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Artificial Intelligence".

The KSUAE team was a leader throughout the Olympiad, actively and confidently demonstrating their knowledge of the Russian language, history, and culture. As a result of their well-coordinated teamwork, our international students took first place in their category, representing our university at a high level. Students from KFU took second place, and students from Kazan Energy University took third place.

Our students' feedback on participating in the Olympiad: "The Olympiad left a very positive impression on us, as it went beyond traditional competitions and became a true cultural exchange. The tasks were interesting and varied, challenging us to fully utilize our knowledge and skills. The Olympiad in English was a more memorable and engaging cultural exchange than a competition: we met people from different universities, enjoyed creative discussions, and interacted with participants from different countries using our basic knowledge of Russian." (Ture Sekou); "I really enjoyed the Olympiad. I was particularly impressed by the participants' spirit—friendliness, motivation, and competitive energy. Most of all, I liked that people from different countries came together, sharing common goals and a passion for knowledge. It was enjoyable and inspiring!" (Mimouni Mohammed).

All Olympiad participants were awarded certificates, diplomas, and honorary prizes. We congratulate our students on their well-deserved victory and wish them every success!
