My speciality.

I am a second year student of the Civil Engineering Faculty of the Orenburg State University It is one of the largest higher educational establishments in our town. The Civil Engineering Faculty was founded in 1970. It trains civil engineers in the following specialties: "Industrial and Public Construction", "Manufacture of the Building Structures", "Architects", "Designers", "Automobile Roads", "City- Constructions and Economy*.

During the yean of activity the faculty has trained many highly-qualified engineers Such specialists are in great demand nowadays^ Their are the day-time, the evening-time and extra-mural departments. Those who combine studies with their work are trained at the evening-time and extra-mural

The whole process of studying deals with mastering new construction methods and progressive technology of production of building structures and materials. Tрe junior students are taught mathematics, physics, a foreign language(English German/French), chemistry, philosophy, computer processing of information. We attend lectures, do laboratory work and tests. We have quite a number of well-equipped laboratories at our disposal. Mastering one of the foreign languages enables us to read foreign literature and learn about the latest scientific and technical achievements abroad.

The senior students study special engineering subjects such as Strength of Materials, Theoretical Mechanics, Building Materials, Geodesy, Architecture, etc.

The fourth-year students combine their studies with their research work. We write course papers and graduation thesis on the scientific problems of our research work. Many highly - qualified teachers work at the departments of our faculty, some of them have candidate's degrees and scientific ranks Summer the students of our faculty, besides vacation, have their practical hours in order to have a clear idea of what our speciality means. According to the academic plan, the fifth -year students are sent to work a' different plants construction sites, where they learn to employ in practice the knowledge they gained at the University.

During practice the students master the job of a civil engineer and at the same, time collect materials for their diploma papers.

The final an d most important period in the students life is the defence of the graduation work in the presence of lie State Examining Board. All the graduates get work according to their speciality.

We shall work at building material factories, on construction sites, at design and research institutions and laborites. Besides, we are provided with everything necessary for a scientific career en' g a post-graduate course. In a word we have a wide range of job opportunities.
