A RUDN University student is the best of the best in the capital! First-year master's student in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Alexander Mironenko, won the Grand Prix in the individual category of the "Moscow Student of the Year" competition. A total of 500 students from 100 universities across the city participated in the competition.
We previously reported that Alexander took first place in the Patriot of the Year category.
"The competition consisted of several stages. During the qualifying round, experts evaluated the participants' video presentations and portfolios. Then came our in-person presentations, where we presented our activities and life strategies in the various nominations," said Alexander Mironenko.
As a reminder, the RUDN University master's student is studying "Russia in History and the Modern World." He leads the student research society of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences and regularly organizes various educational events. He is also the author of the project "Along the Roads of the Civil War in Siberia," which aims to create an information resource and conduct field expeditions to reconstruct monuments and sites related to the events of the Civil War in the Novosibirsk Region.
The winner of the competition's Grand Prix was determined by the results of a public vote conducted on the "Youth of Moscow" portal.
"From the very beginning, I didn't expect to win. It was a surprise both in the nomination and when the Grand Prix winner was chosen. I'm very grateful to our entire university for the latter, because practically nothing depended on me. Those who voted for me made the decision, so a special thank you to RUDN University for their unity!" — Alexander Mironenko.
According to the student, his next goal is to rest a bit and then move on. After all, the All-Russian stage of the competition lies ahead of him.
"There's a multi-factor review going on, so we're waiting for the results of the national selection committee. But even if I don't make it to the finals this year, it will be a reason to test my mettle in 2026," said Alexander Mironenko.
By the way, today is the winner's birthday, so congratulations and good luck in the final of the Russian National Student of the Year Award!
