Congratulations to Roman Kotyuk, a student of spaciality “Public Management and  Administration”, on receiving a scholarship from the President of Ukraine. Roman shared his impressions and gave advice on how to get a scholarship from the President of Ukraine.

Tell us about your impressions when you received the scholarship.

When I applied, I did not expect to receive a scholarship. And even forgot about it. Of course, when I was told about the scholarship, I was surprised and happy.

What do you dream about?

I have many dreams, many goals, some will be achieved, some will not. The main ones are probably to catch all the fish in the world, buy a villa in each country, learn to fly without a plane, inhabit the Moon, Mars, and, in general, the entire galaxy. Repair all roads in the country. But apparently I want too much (Smiles)!
