I always emphasize that we are proud of you. You are young people who have made an important life decision. You chose the path of education and science in a difficult period for the country, stayed in Ukraine, and this is very important. It is important not only for you personally, as you develop your inner dignity, but also for the entire country, because you are the ones who do not run away from difficulties but stay with Ukraine and are its hope. I am convinced that you are the backbone of our country, capable not only of restoring it but also of bringing about change. Thanks to your education and patriotism, which has always been inherent in our university at different stages of Ukraine’s history, we are creating a powerful intellectual and national force together, which will become the basis for great changes in Ukraine.”
Congratulations to our masters on their important achievement! We wish you new achievements, professional growth and bright opportunities in the future. May the knowledge you have gained become a solid foundation for your success!
