1 My speciality
Orenburg State University is the largest higher educational establishment in our
town. There are 7 Institutes and 11 Faculties in the University. I am a second year
student of the Faculty of Natural Sciences. Our faculty was organized in 1998. It
trains specialits on the following specialities: biology, chemistry, geography, geology
and radiophysics. A course of study lasts 5 years. The present academic year is
marked by expansion of new forms of technical specialization. Specialization plays a
major part in planning the curricula. The academic program is composed of such
subjects as history, philosophy, computer processing of information, chemistry,
biology, biogeography, foreign languages and others. Mastering one of the foreign
languages enables us to read foreign literature and learn about the latest scientific and
technical achievements abroad.
My future speciality is biology. Biology is a complex of sciences which deals
with intricate relationships in the natural world. The first - and second - year students
study general engineering subjects such as mathematics, physics, mechanics, strength
of materials, elements of machines, drawing as well as computer engineering.
Usually specialization begins in the third year. Third - year students take a course in
such specialization as ecology. They study such subjects as botany, zoology, human
biology, microbiology, biochemistry and molecular biology, genetics with the
principles of selection and others. This course includes animal, plant and soil
ecology, flora and fauna of Orenburg region and their protection. The Biology course
is practically orintated and uses modern laboratories so that students get chances on
experience in techniques and machinery used by modern biologists.
At our disposal we have lecture halls, well - equipped laboratories, a new
computer center. A new library will be equipped with modern facilities, and it'll keep
1,6 million volumes.
While studying at the University students are to fulfil course papers and a
diploma paper which is submitted at the end of the fifth year. Students take part in
research expeditions. After graduating from the University students can continue their
studies at the post - graduate course. The main feature of the educational system is
that it is accessible for all. About 75% of the students receive state grants and 10%
get allowances from enterprises which sponsored their applications.
Our University considers education not only as a collection of useful facts and
theories but also as the process which trains a person to analyse and interrelate
various ideas as well as make decisions. We shall be specialists of tomorrow in the
society with new technology. Our qualification will determine the scientific and
technological progress of the country. Besides, specialists in this field should have a
general education to supplement their specialized knowledge and thereby enable
them to use it more effectively. The graduates of our faculty can work as teachers,
engineers, research workers, inspectors, managers.
