LU konference
Students and those who are about to graduate from secondary school are invited to visit the mini fair “Tartu: academic and cool” in early afternoon of Feb 24. They can receive first hand information on what one can do in a cool town of Tartu on a short week end trip to Estonia’s academic capital, and of course what one can study. Students can take part in a short quiz about Estonia/Tartu, win instant small prizes and have a chance to win the main prize – a week-end trip to Tartu.
Those who would like to get a glimpse of what it is like to be an international student at the University of Tartu and study in one of its many programs instructed in English may choose to attend a lecture given by UT faculty.
