Students and graduates of our University were invited to take part in the World Winter Universiade-2019
The World Winter Universiade will be held for the first time in Russia in the city of Krasnoyarsk. The largest youth sports event will bring together participants from more than 50 countries. In connection with the preparation for the Universiade-2019, the Executive Directorate will select 12 students and graduates to participate in the "Young Reporter" program. Our students and graduates can try themselves in the role of journalists to cover the event and improve their professional skills
For more than 50 years, the Universiade has been the second most important international event. A grandiose holiday of student sports unites young men and girls from all over the world. In the new academic year 2019, the Winter Universiade will be held in Krasnoyarsk, which from March 2 to 12 will turn into a world sports arena.
It is impossible to imagine this kind of event without representatives of the media. In this connection, the executive management organizes the educational program "Young Reporter", in which graduates and students studying in the field of journalism and public relations can take part. Young specialists of full-time and part-time forms of education at the age from 21 to 25 years can become full participants of the Universiade. Within the framework of the program, meetings with mentors, visits to profile lectures and master classes, excursion around the city and many other things are planned.
The program provides work in three directions: a reporter - 2 participants, a photojournalist - 3 participants and an online media specialist - 7 participants. In addition to common tasks, everyone will have separate responsibilities.
One of the main selection criteria is the knowledge of English not lower than the level of Upper-Intermediate. Test assignments, interviewing and further work at the Universiade will require students and graduates to write texts and communicate in two languages (English and Russian).
For beginners, this is an excellent opportunity to prove yourself and use the knowledge gained in practice.
