WE CAN'T STOP THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT, BUT WE CAN SLOW IT DOWN

There are several ways to do this:

1. Conserve Fossil Fuels - Some countries have already begun. Each person in Japan, for example, uses only 50% as much coal, gas and oil as the average American.

2. Conserve Rainforests - The Earth needs more trees, not fewer. South American, Asian and African countries must protect their rainforests, not cut them down.

3. Use Natural Energy - 20% of the world's energy already comes from the sun, sea and wind. To slow down the Greenhouse Effect, that number must rise to 50% in the next 20 years.

4. Ban CFCs - This is beginning to happen. Many companies have already banned CFCs.

Our university

The Belarusian State University of Informatics and Radioelectronics, the former Minsk Radioengineering Institute, was founded in 1964. In 1964 2.5 thousand students began studies at two faculties, those of radioengineering and automatics and computer science separated from the Belarusian Polytechnic Institute.

Today this University trains engineers in 24 specialities and 26 specializations.

The overall number of students is more than 10 thousand. The teaching staff consists of academicians. Corresponding members of the Belarusian Academy of sciences, two full members of New York Academy of Science, professors, assistant professors and experienced teachers.

The students study at 9 faculties: the Faculty of Radioengineering and Electronics; the Faculty of Information Technologies and Control; the Faculty of Computer Systems and Networks; the Faculty of Telecommunication; the Economic Faculty, the Faculty of Computer-aided Design; the Military Faculty and The Correspondence Faculty; the Faculty of Professional orientation. The University has all the necessary facilities for teaching. A great number of computer classes are equipped with modern computers owing to the support of world-known companies, such as PHILIPS, INTEL, IBM and their Belarusian partners.

A large library with reading halls is at the disposal of the students.

Different subjects are taught at the University depending on the faculty and the course. The first-year students study physics, higher mathematics, descriptive geometry, technical drawing, social sciences. Later they acquire profound knowledge in electronics, cybernetics, computing machinery, etc. Special attention is given to such subjects as impulse technique, analog and digital computers, theoretical fundamentals of electroengineering.

Four foreign languages are taught at the University: English, German, French and Spanish.

The University presents its latest developments at Belarusian national expositions as well as at world-famous fairs and exhibitions in Germany, China, India, Iran, Egypt, Vietnam, United Arab Emirates and Syria.

The course study at University lasts five years. The academic year is divided into two terms. The students financially covered by the government are granted studentships. Students from other cities lodge in the halls of residence of total capacity of 2100 people.

The University teams regularly win the leading positions of student sports in athletics and keep-fit activities. The students are free to choose between athletics, soccer, basket-ball, volley-ball, hand-ball, swimming, freestyle wrestling, body-building, shaping, etc. There are all necessary facilities available like swimming pool, fitness -center, open playgrounds, ski depot, summer camp at the Braslav Lakes.

The Student Club of the University organizes parties, discos, festivals of amateur art. The University takes special pride in its brass band, vocal group "Tutashiee", the ballet dance group, the group of acrobatic rock-n-roll, the bard song club, etc.

My speciality

At this period of my life I have a big goal — to graduate from the university. Now I am only a second-year-student, and the hardest time is in the future, but I think that I will cope with.

It's the destiny that I study at the BSUIR at the engendering and economic faculty. In future I’ll specialize as an engineer-economist-programmer. I chose this profession not randomly: I want to connect my future profession with informational technologies, because I am interested in this branch. To study at engineering and economic faculty is very hard, but at the same time interesting and amusing. Besides practical studies and lectures, it is necessary to make much effort to learn one or another discipline on your own. It takes much time and patience, but results justify: excellent marks in the record-book, good relations with teachers and perfect knowledge, which will be useful in future.

Conditions of studying at the university are good for receiving higher education. Students are supplied with current technology, equipped lecture-rooms as well as teachers, which are professionals. The administration of our university doesn't forget about the health of its students. There is a huge complex of various kinds of sport, which very student may choose at his will and type of preparation.

However the life is changeable, sometimes unjust and I often ask myself a question what speciality will be in future? I don't imagine yet but I know exactly; my specialty, how defiantly it may be sound, is one of the most relevant not only in Belarus but also abroad. Now I shall try to prove it.

. The present day economics is necessary as never before, because each relation between people is founded on trade. The programming is one of the most upcoming and well-qualified disciplines of the twentieth century. New technologies are appealing, that lead to using computers in every sphere of activity of people. Engineering is the principal element of human being.

At the moment I am glad of my chosen speciality. I hope to be a good specialist, for whom his job will be an interesting and fascinating occupation.

In addition I would like to add that in spite of the fact, what my life will be, everything, that I study at the university, will be useful to me in my life and I hope that I shall achieve much.
