Advent Calendar 2

A very important event — probably one of the most important events of 2025 — was my completion of postgraduate studies at Timiryazev Academy.

I studied for three years at the Institute of Economics and Management in the Agro-Industrial Complex, specializing in systems analysis, control, and information processing. This year my studies came to an end: I passed my final exam (the Candidate minimum in my specialty), defended my work before the department and before the academy’s academic council, received positive reviews, and then set off on my own.

The main thing I gained from those three years of study was an understanding of the research process, the ability to write and publish academic articles, and the ability to think like a researcher. In my opinion, that is quite a lot. So I consider it an important stage of life and an achievement of 2025.
