The next stage is the finals in Moscow, where the girls will once again present their project to a jury and compete for a grant for its implementation.
"We presented our project, which we'd been developing over the summer, and also listened to the other participants' presentations. After the first seven teams had presented, we were asked not just to wait for the results but to participate in interactive activities. We completed stations with tasks that required teamwork, met other students, and also participated in a training session. The time flew by, and we were already at the awards ceremony. The result is first place in the regional round, which we're very happy about! Now we'll work on improving the project and preparing for the next stage of the competition," shared Alena Vorobyova, a third-year student at the Institute of Mathematical and Mathematical Engineering at NSU.

Now we'll represent our region at the national level," added Anastasia Korotkova, a third-year student at the Institute of Mathematical and Mathematical Engineering at NSU. "A lot needs to be improved, but we're energized by this victory, so everything should work out!"
The NSU "Psycheya" team presented a project to create a platform for anonymous communication, prevention, psychological support, and adaptation assistance for first-year students.

I left inspired and full of desire to continue developing both myself and the team," said Ksenia Abysheva, a second-year student at the Institute of Mathematical and Mathematical Engineering (IMMT) of NSU.
