A student of Pirogov University — at the All-Russian Biryusa Forum!

The educational platform was launched in the Krasnoyarsk Territory and brought together thousands of motivated young people from all over Russia and abroad. Together with leading experts, coaches and speakers at the federal level, the students developed social, scientific, creative and sports projects.

Maria Shchetkina, a student of Pirogov University, became a participant in the large-scale event. 

"The most important thing for me was that the forum had an extensive medical program. I was able to attend lectures about HPV, oncology, and first aid. These topics are directly related to our future profession, and it was valuable to hear about them in this format. We discussed what opportunities are opening up in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The region especially needs doctors, teachers, IT specialists and engineers. It was about internships, vacancies, and even government support for relocation," says Maria.

The venue of the forum itself turned out to be no less striking. Biryusa is located right on the shore of the majestic Yenisei River, among the endless taiga and mountains. "We got there by boat, and it created a special atmosphere. The program included master classes, quizzes and meetings with experts, but the main thing was to feel the real energy and sincerity of the organizers," says the girl.
