Università della Svizzera Italiana

Hello. My name is Egor Ermolaev. For now I'm a final year student from Omsk, Russia. Autumn 2017 I was looking for opportunity to do my diploma thesis somewhere abroad (because of I really like culture exchange and learn new languages). So I finally found a proposal from the USI, Lugano. The proposal was in the frames of Master Research Scholarship program (shortly - MaRS). The point was - it's the short term foundation (5000$) to work at USI as a visiting researched. The university gives to you all the necessary stuff  (project theme, research group, place in the open space, laptop etc.). Highly recommend this university and the scholarship program.

The university as a whole is very organized and the courses are very structured for gradual learning. The professors are very helpful both during the lessons and outside. A very strong point is the possibility to make many projects and practice what you learn in class.
