What I would highlight: Before applying to Skoltech, I was very skeptical about this place. There were a lot of ads everywhere about it with shocking studying conditions like worthy stipend for each student, technically equipped study rooms and cozy kitchens. It seems as a miracle for everyone who studied in universities, established still in Soviet Union, with month stipends less than 50$ and furniture left a lot to be desired. I had talked with several professors of Skoltech to understand what this place exactly is and whether all I heard is true. After confirmation, I started to gather all necessary documents and prepare for exams. Finally, I was enrolled to Data Science as I wanted. This place has everything for developing highly-qualified specialists in different fields of sciences. The majority of teaching staff are leading researchers from different fields of technical sciences. In addition, there are enterpreunership courses, which are appealed to broaden students' horizons and show them ways for translating ideas to products. After two years I am able to say that choosing Skoltech was right decision for getting Master degree. I circumscribed the area that is interesting to me to work in. Probably it has already determined my future life.
What could be improved: Nothing to improve
Would you recommend this course?: Yes
