In connection with the numerous requests of students, parents and representatives of public organizations on the organization of the educational process in institutions of higher education for the winter-spring period of the 2018/2019 school year, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine prepared several orders.  In particular, the letter of the Deputy Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine Yurii Rashkevych states that, according to the Law of Ukraine “On Higher Education”, higher educational institutions use various forms of organization of the educational process during the year and can determine their own sequence for their own academic autonomy.  At the same time, the number of classroom hours planned for the academic year remains constant and under any conditions, including climatic conditions, must be fulfilled.

On November 5, the Faculty of Foreign Philology of ZNU organized a Christmas holiday in German.  Its initiator and organizer was Alla Mamedova, associate professor of the department of teaching a second foreign language. The participants of the holiday are students of the specialty “English language and literature (philology)” (groups 303, 401 and 402) and the specialty “English language and literature (translation)” (group 402). Therefore, for them this event was an excellent opportunity to demonstrate not only their creative abilities and acting talents, but also to confirm the high level of proficiency in the second, German, language.

The students of the history faculty of the specialty “International Relations, Public Communications and Regional Studios” had a translation practice for two weeks in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. In particular, students had internships in the First European Department (Valeriia Kosar and Anna Manuilova), the Second European Department (Anna Skrypnyk), the Human Resources Department (Kateryna Bielik) and the Department of the European Union and NATO (Yuliia Rozbytska). Also, two interns of the Faculty of Economics (Viktoriia Bielik and Dariia Synooka) agreed to join the students of the history department in agreement with the heads of the practice.

Creative evenings dedicated to outstanding cultural events have long become a good tradition on the Faculty of foreign philology. That is why the 3rd year students of the specialties “English Language and Literature” and “Spanish Language and Literature” under the guidance of associate professor of the Department of German Philology and Translation Yana Kravchenko turned the last lecture on foreign literature in this semester into a real literary holiday.
