As the organization RACUS has its own representative in Malawi, applicants and their parents had the opportunity to get information about education in Russia: advantages, how to apply, conditions of staying and other general and particular questions.
Such an interest of youth in education in Russia is aroused due to a range of facts.
Firstly, there are more than 500 specialties in the universities of the RACUS group. This multiplicity is a great option for self determination in life of a young person and gives wide perspectives to find work in future. During the exhibition it emerged that youth of Malawi is mostly interested in the following specialties: medicine, architecture, civil engineering, IT and telecommunications. The visitors put questions about specialties needed to the representatives of organization RACUS and got complete answers.
Secondly, the possibility to study not only in Russian, but also in English language is another big advantage for applicants. Studying in English in Russian universities expand the boundaries of possibilities in the future life in Malawi and any other country of the world.
Thirdly, the most important criteria for applicants is decades of experience of work with foreign students in the universities forming the RACUS group. Graduates, students and their parents gladly share experience of studying in Russia with those who are just in the beginning of their path of adult professional life.
