Success of TSU Students
Students from Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State
University (TSU) have been awarded gold and bronze medals at the
International Olympiads in Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics.
Aleksandre Saatashvili,
who won the 5th place at the International Mathematical Olympiad, has
been awarded TSU Rector’s Scholarship. He achieved the best results in
the history of Georgian team’s participation in Olympiads.
“Mathematics
is a field of science, which is interesting to me as a universal
opportunity for problem solution. The more difficult the problem is, the
more interesting it is for me. I chose TSU, because I think that this
university is unique in the direction of mathematics. I personally know
mathematicians – university professors, who were and will remain my
teachers in future as well. I think that I will be able to receive basic
knowledge at TSU that will help me better define the direction in which
I will work in future,” Saatashvili said.
Gela Patashuri
is the first-year student at the Department of Physics of the Faculty
of Exact and Natural Sciences. He won the bronze medal at the
International Physics Olympiad held in Indonesia. Gela attended classes
at the TSU School of Young Physicists that largely determined his future
choice.
“I
was in my 8th form when I first familiarized myself with TSU after my
physics teacher advised me to attend classes at the TSU School of Young
Physicists. The experiments and lectures on quantum mechanics delivered
by Temur Nadareishvili completely changed my views and exerted huge
influence on my childhood. TSU is the oldest and greatest higher
educational institution and universally recognized center. It involves
the oldest school of physics and traditions.
Generally,
comprehensive education is needed to become a great scientist and I
hope that TSU will give me necessary knowledge and opportunities to
continue my studies at a good university abroad and become a scientist,
who will prove useful not only to Georgia but to the entire mankind,” he
said.
Saba Tavdgiridze
won a bronze medal at the International Chemical Olympiad in Thailand.
In future, he plans to participate in TSU exchange programs and acquire
knowledge and experience necessary for his professional advancement
abroad.
“Tbilisi
State University is the best educational institution in Georgia. So, I
did not think much about where to continue my studies. I chose the
Faculty of Physics, which really makes TSU unique. During my school
years, I took part in the Olympiads in Chemistry and Informatics. I was
interested in physics as well. Thus, this choice will enable me to study
physics and simultaneously to have some contacts with chemistry and
mathematics. I hope that the following years will be interesting and
cognitive. TSU implements a lot of exchange programs with the world’s
leading universities and I will try to acquire knowledge and experience
necessary for my professional advancement through these programs.”
Giorgi Grigolia
has been interested in natural sciences and especially physics for
several years. He said that physics is that fundamental science,
studying of which satisfies his inner curiosity. He won a bronze medal
at the International Physics Olympiad in Indonesia.
“The
process of working on both theoretical and experimental tasks is very
interesting for me. I am sure that TSU will provide me an opportunity to
use my knowledge in practice. TSU is the university with a great
history and experience and physics is taught there at a high level. I
also hope to continue my studies abroad and what is most important, I
want to be involved in real scientific research activities. I want to
become a scientist. So, I want to get as much knowledge as possible
during my studies on BA degree program,” says Giorgi.
