Hello! My name is Oleksandra. I am a Philology student of Sumy State University.

I think Mitacs gives proactive students an opportunity to demonstrate their skills, talents and abilities, and gain practical experience in the areas they are interested in. It is important to enjoy the work you choose. Interest in unresolved issues, sometimes narrow topics, encourages you to research and find solutions.

I love studying translation. Over time, I realized that I needed to look for ways to improve myself in my chosen specialty, so in my third year I chose the Mitacs Globalink Research Internship.
