– South Ural State University is one of the major and advanced universities in Russia, what, subsequently, is indicative of the quality of education here. The university has a good base for the development of research projects. SUSU opens a paradigm of opportunities. For example, the Asteroid Student Design Bureau was organized at the university. There you gain invaluable experience in design, learn how to effectively interact with students from other programmes. The wide range of opportunities allows to engage in research activities, attend different conferences and workshops, communicate with students and academic staff from other universities, take part in cultural events, such as meetings, forums, contests, and more.

Engineering. Space, and others.
– Еlizaveta, what are your plans for the future?
– To put the project in the Asteroid Student Design Bureau to practice and get a job in the Roscosmos State Space Corporation.
– Please, tell us about your hobby.
– I like to travel. The nature of Russia is extremely fascinating: boundless steppes, towering mountains, forests and rivers. The cities in Russia are so different: some streets are narrow and some are wide; in one city, everything moves swiftly, in another, quietly and peacefully.
– What is your life motto?
– Where there's a will, there's a way. I do my best – I get results.
