Two IEM students won personal grant named after V.A. Gaga

The evaluation team of the TSU Endowment Fund recognized the winners of the V.A. Gaga Grant IEM students Anna Norkina and Darya Pisarenko.

This is historically significant event for the Institute, because it’s the first personal grant for the students from the endowment capital “Leaders of the Future”. IEM students of Bachelor and Specialist programs were able to participate in the contest along with the first year Master students of IEM.

It was very difficult to choose the winners, the Endowment Fund Director Marya Bulygina says. All the participants were worthy, some of them had already won other Endowment Fund grants. Despite that Management is the majoring field of the students we also considered their achievements in other spheres: academic, volunteering, IEM development, TSU public activity and so on. The winners have all of these. I advise all the students to participate in the contest because it presents new opportunities. Don’t be afraid, it is more than real to win!

Darya Pisarenko notes that the winning of V.A. Gagi Grant is not only a unique opportunity to get financial support for public, academic and social activity but also motivation for further development by the Institute and TSU Endowment Fund.

IEM always supports its students: puts initiatives into action, organizes career fairs and meetings with businessmen, gives the opportunities to participate in different competitions in other cities, Darya emphasizes. Due to creation of the endowment capital “Leaders of the Future” and help by the Endowment Fund our students have more opportunities to achieve their leader potential!

I am very happy to win the grant, adds Anna Norkina. That is great that IEM students have such a unique opportunity.

The winners will be paid 10000 rubles monthly (for 5 months from 1/09/2024)
