Feedback

“For me Winter School was not just about learning new theoretical knowledges in my field. It was a lot about meeting new people with similar interests and discovering their way of thinking or dealing with problems. That is why I deeply appreciate exercises we have done during the lectures. However, the best parts for me were the very interesting excursions. Finally, I should mention the magical beauty of winter St. Petersburg which has astonished me, and which underlined this perfect course.”

Dan Vlček, Czech Republic, Winter School 2018

“Every morning, I was awake by the brightness of white snow outside the window, then buried into the interesting lectures by respectable professors. Although time was not so long, during this two weeks I learned a lot of things about the Electrical Energy, which were useful and meaningful to my study, and gradually realized the differences in many aspects between Russia and my country China, such as different teaching approach, different research atmosphere, different cultures. Everything was pretty good. Especially lovely volunteers, they all were so kind and passionate. It was no exaggeration to say that the volunteers took everything relevant to us into consideration and arranged those details in order so that we can have a nice campus time and had time to touch Russian culture. Everything here was indeed worthwhile and it would be my unforgettable memories about Saint Petersburg and my Russian friends.”

Guo Mengle, China, Winter School 2018

“I am really feeling comfortable here [in Russia]. I think because it’s close to Europe, it is new, but not too different, so I am feeling here quite well. It was easy for me to explore the city, because how people think, how people act here, the way the city built up this is comparable to where I came from. I expected [from Energy School] the general overview of the oil and gas to get the first touch to the topic, because originally, I am studying civil engineering. This became true, and I think until now it worked out. I can recommend other students to participate in stuff like this and especially for European citizens to come out of their comfort zone to not just do summer schools in Spain or France, because there it is more the same way where I come from, from Germany. So, when I come here it’s more different and I will see more for my personal future.“

Wilhelm Klaus Thomas, Germany, Summer School 2019

“Amazement - this was the first word that came up to my mind once I landed in this beautiful city. The program itself was outstanding, different points of view, interculturality and passion by them self can explain only a fraction of what I lived. Looking forward to come back, definitely! The only thing I can say is: thank you.”

Riccardo Chebac, Italy, Winter School 2018

“During the course, I learned a lot and felt the enthusiasm and patience of the volunteers. Although they were not able to communicate face to face, the distance between us has also narrowed a lot with introductions videos. Due to the impact of the epidemic, I couldn't go to St. Petersburg to participate. However, online lectures were very informative, cultural program addition was quite funny and educational that helped me to learn about the city.”

Wang Hongkang, China

“This school has been a great experience, the lectures have been really interesting, very formative, and they were about things I did and didn't know. I have acquired a lot of new knowledge. Also, people have been great! We couldn't really interact with students, but the volunteer, coordinators and professors have put a great effort into these two weeks, and that is much appreciated.”

Carlos Pazos

“I would like to personally thank everyone in the making of the online Energy School, the professors and the Energy Team for making it happen. Grateful for the chance and knowledge that I got fro, 2 weeks insightful lectures, and also the fun cultural programmes. Though I didn't get to visit Saint-Petersburg this year, I am still happy to be a part of it!”

Aulia Sarah Zahratus

“Summer Energy School in Nuclear Engineering has been a whole experience where new expected and unexpected knowledge came to me. Professors were really nice and clear and Energy Team was fun, even though we didn’t talk that much.”
