Four SISU students majoring in Russian studies won prizes in the 15th National College Russian Language Competition on May 6^th.

The competition, sponsored by the China Scholarship Council, comprises three rounds - preliminary, semi-final, and final - and has three levels: primary-level undergraduates, senior-level undergraduates, and graduate students.

The semi-final involves impromptu speeches and oral expression, while the final includes Russian-Chinese translation and dialogue interpretation.

Students who win first, second, or third place in the competition will be fully funded by the China Scholarship Council to study in Russia for further education or degrees.

Lai Cheng won the third prize in the primary-level undergraduate group, Ge Fei won the third prize in the senior-level undergraduate group, and Gao Zexiang and Wang Haoyu earned the Excellent Award in the graduate student group and the senior-level undergraduate group, respectively.
