It's a very wise choice to study in TSU. As a international student from another country, we always need to face to different kinds of inconvenience and pressure, how does the university’s administrators works with the foreign students is very important for us. In TSU you can trust the administrators 100%. And there is no doubt that TSU as one of the best universities in Russian has the best caliber of teaching.

After graduating from Tomsk State University in June last year, I got a good job immediately. Now I am a sales manager in Zoomlion Russia (a company with an annual turnover of RMB 40 billion in 95 countries around the world). I am in charge of Siberia and the Far Eastern Federal district.
The reason they hired me is because I have a background in studying in Russia and a master's degree with market development skills. So I am so grateful that Tomsk state university gave me this .
