International Students Testimonials

Chen Hailin, China

National Research Nuclear University MEPhI (Moscow Engineering Physics Institute)

Profession which I’ll receive soon is extremely sought-after and, what is most importantly, unique

I study in the faculty of Cybernetics and information security in MEPhI, learning issues related to combating money laundering and terrorist financing. It is a continuation of my first education I received in China and later in Russia, in Khabarovsk. I find it very interesting to study in MEPhI. Profession which I’ll receive soon is extremely sought-after and, what is most importantly, unique not only in Russia but also in the world.

When I arrived, it was hard to communicate, as I didn't understand people because of language difficulties. But my new friends from Russia helped me a lot. We became good friends and spend a lot of time together.

Now I live in a dormitory of MEPhI with other international students. Living conditions are good, I like it.

In my spare time I play football with groupmates, go to Russian favorite “shashliki” (barbecue) in parks or somewhere outside the city. I like Moscow – the big city with millions of people and variety of options what to do in your free time. In addition, I travel to different cities of Russia. For example, I’ve already been to St. Petersburg, Sergiev Posad, Vladimir, Suzdal...

I really enjoy my stay in Russia, Moscow and MEPhI.
