German language experts: results of the Olympiad at the Department of Intelligent Computer Systems
April 2016 was a month of intellectual challenges for students who chose German as a tool for their future professional activities. The Department of Intelligent Computer Systems (ICS) hosted the annual German Language Olympiad, which brought together the most talented and diligent linguists of our faculty. ✍️🎓
Based on the results of two rounds of the Olympiad, which took place on 12 and 19 April, the jury selected the winners who demonstrated excellent knowledge of grammar, vocabulary and oral skills.
🏆 Podium of honour:
🥇 1st place — leaders of the language race:
- Olesya Litvinenko (group SGT-32b)
- Elizaveta Berezovskaya (group SGT-34c)
🥈 Second place:
- Viktoria Titar (group SGT-34a)
🥉 Third place:
- Ilya Manuilov (group SGT-34c)
- Lilia Kolodna (group SGT-33a)
German is traditionally one of the priority languages for students of our department, as it opens doors to leading European research centres and universities in Austria and Germany. The high results of the Olympiad once again confirm the effectiveness of the foreign language teaching methods at the ICS department.
We sincerely congratulate the winners and wish them further improvement in their language skills! 🚀✨
