The NSU Awards is an annual ceremony recognizing students who have contributed to the development of social, public, athletic, and scientific activities at NSU. This year, 184 students received letters of gratitude and commemorative gifts, including representatives of student clubs and active students from NSU faculties and institutes. This is the fourth time the ceremony has been held, and it can rightfully be considered a tradition.
"I am very pleased to be present at this traditional ceremony, where we honor our talented and intelligent students who have demonstrated outstanding results in scientific, social, public, and cultural work. It's wonderful to see so many of you here, and believe me, I'm proud of our university, its glorious past, present, and bright future. I'm also proud of our faculty, who invest in their students. And, of course, I'm proud of you, students, because you are the glory of our university. You are our promising and bright future. And, of course, we hope that you will continue the glorious traditions of our Novosibirsk State University and bring it even greater glory in the future. In passing, I wish you a happy New Year. I wish you success in your exams, a rejuvenated holiday, and, of course, health, well-being, and happiness to your loved ones," said Mikhail Fedoruk, Rector of NSU and Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, greeting everyone.
In 2025, NSU students achieved significant success and received widespread recognition. Thirty-eight university students received scholarships from the President of the Russian Federation and the Government of the Russian Federation—five times more than last year. At the NSU Awards ceremony, awards were presented to scholarship recipients who were unable to attend the gala in Tomsk. Furthermore, NSU students recently won the competition for named scholarships. According to statistics, only 10 prizes are awarded for each named scholarship across all Russian universities. Four students from the NSU Institute of Philosophy and Law received the V.A. Tumanov scholarship, and two students from the Journalism program at the NSU Humanities Institute received the A.A. Voznesensky scholarship.
"It's great to see so many familiar faces in this room. Of course, these are people we work with every day, and I know many of the students personally. Our students study very hard at our university; that's our hallmark. And it's amazing that, despite such a busy schedule, our students find time to help their departments and the university, and to engage in cultural and creative activities. This is wonderful, so I hope we'll have new and exciting projects in the new calendar year. I sincerely thank everyone with whom we've worked, discussed, and debated this year. I wish you all the very best," Olga Yakovleva, Vice-Rector for Youth Policy and Educational Work at NSU, congratulated the students.
One of these active students is Daria Karaseva, a 5th-year student Institute of Medicine and Medical TechnologiesDaria was nominated by the IMMT Dean's Office for her assistance in organizing the institute's academic and extracurricular activities.
"I feel a sense of joy and pride that all my work throughout the school year has been recognized and appreciated. It's a kind of summation of the year that tells me, 'Yes, you're great, you've accomplished so much this year, you've worked hard, and you deserve to be recognized and rewarded for your efforts.' This event has become an annual winter tradition for me. I attended the very first one, and I've been attending every year since, right up until 2025," Daria shared.
