International cooperation
My university allows me to gain professional experience in companies and
institutions abroad. After the first year of my studies I had a chance to take part
in a three-month internship in Malta. I worked as an assistant to the Mayor of the
City. The internship helped me to improve my English. Moreover, the chance to
interact with people from different countries and cultures was an invaluable
experience for me.
