«Karazin University — for MetroSchool, Kharkiv» the project continues

Educational events for schoolchildren are an important part of Karazin University's work. Our community continuously seeks new opportunities to share knowledge and experience with children. Thus, a new project for lyceums and gymnasiums in the city, "Karazin University - for MetroSchool," was launched in January 2024 by the Center of Post-Qualifying in collaboration with the schools and institutes of Karazin University.

On March 21, representatives of the Schools of History and Chemistry of Karazin University visited the municipal institution "Kharkiv Lyceum No. 104 of the Kharkiv City Council" as part of the project.

Within the framework of the humanitarian educational and scientific cluster, students got acquainted with the School of History of Karazin University. Candidate of Historical Sciences Anastasiia Khoftura delivered a lecture titled "The School of History of Karazin University as a Starting Platform for Qualitative Preparation for National University Admission and Higher Education." And a postgraduate of the Department of Eastern European History, Vladyslav Shchepachenko, presented the scientific-practical block "Archaeology and Its Role in Historical Understanding of the Past. Archaeology in Preparing Students for National University Admission. The Germano-Slavic World: From Antiquity to the Present."

To learn more about the School of Chemistry, students participated in the natural sciences educational and scientific cluster. The Dean of the School of Chemistry, Oleg Kaluhin, gave a lecture titled "The Wonderful World of Modern Chemistry. The School of Chemistry of Karazin University." Afterward, students actively participated in the practical chemistry session conducted by the Deputy Dean of the School of Chemistry, Tetiana Chernozhuk, and a team of demonstrators, including faculty member Viktoriia Urzhuntseva, aspirant Illia Piskunov, and student Ruslana Rudenko.

Additionally, introductory remarks were made to the lyceum students by the director of the lyceum, Oksana Teslenko, and the director of the Post-Qualifying Center of Karazin University, Mykhailo Tatarynov. At the end of each cluster, a reflective exercise was conducted to reinforce and internalize the acquired knowledge.

Karazin University continues to actively work and engage lyceum and gymnasium students in education because children are the future of our city, region, and country!
