I finished school in June and entered Aktobe State University. Aktobe State University is one of the biggest scientific and research centres in West Kazakhstan. The university trains teachers, economists, lawyers, psychologists, interpreters, engineers and experts in information systems. The university has full-time (day-time) department and part-time (evening) one.

There are many chairs in our university. Tutors, lecturers, candidates of sciences and leading professors deliver lectures, conduct seminars and classes, help the students t o master their future profession. The students have to do their best to acquire necessary knowledge. They must attend all lectures and practical hours. Besides they must never miss seminars and lab classes. They have to prepare their home assignments regularly. The students have good conditions for their study. There are libraries, reading halls, computer classes, and dining-rooms in each building of the university. Besides the internet is at our disposal. The usual course of training at the university lasts 4 years. The academic year is divided into two terms. Terminal examinations are held in January and in Mai. Many students receive scholarships and are provided with hostel accommodation.

I am a full- time student of economic faculty. The faculty trains accountants, auditors, managers, economists. The students try to get profound knowledge in economics and other sciences. Besides we carry out research work and gain profession skills. Undergraduates specializing in economics for four years take Ec.B. degree after submitting their diploma works.

Our student`s life is very intensive, I should say.We are usually very busy. We are given one or two lectures a day. Then we have a seminar and a class in English. At English lessons we read and translate texts, discuss and solve different problems. English is my favourite subject and it comes easy to me.

I am strong in many subjects but Maths is my weak point. I work hard at it.Sometimes ifstudents work by fits and starts they fail at the exams. But if you don’t miss classes and work regularly you are sure to make good progress and get good marks.

University means a lot for me and it isn’t just learning and studying. I had made good friends there and met many interesting people.

I am sociable, so I have got a lot of friends among my group mates. As for me I appreciate people`s honesty, kindness, sense of justice and intelligence.

Thus, future specialists must be energetic, communicative, must know computer and information technologies, as well as foreign languages, at least, Eng­lish.

As for me, I am not sure in what field of economy I am going to work but I know that well- educated people with broad outlook and deep knowledge of the subject are very important for the development and prosperity of the country.
