It is an old building with beautiful columns. There are two departments at college: the Economic department andthe department of Law and Technology. More than 600 students attend day departments and more than 300 get extra-mural education. In future they will work as accountants, lawyers, cooks, merchants, customs officers and waiters.

To be a good specialist means to study at college from the very beginning till the day of graduation. I know that I shall need deep knowledge in my future work.
