Having won a Lithuanian State Scholarship, Kazakh student Adil Karim from Almaty came to Mykolas Romeris University (MRU) last year to better his English language skills, learn Lithuanian and take classes in history, psychology. He received a scholarship, designated for students from Kazakhstan, to study at MRU. The 21-year-old Transport Logistics major at Kazakh-German University (KGU) spent a year abroad at MRU and used some of his free time to travel and visit different parts of Europe. -    Why did you come to Vilnius?     I received a scholarship from the Lithuanian government to study at Mykolas Romeris University for a year. I am a 4th year student at Kazakh German University studying Logistics. There were 2 of us Kazakhs that applied for the scholarship, but I was the only student from my University awarded a scholarship to study here at MRU. -    What did you know about Lithuania before coming?          Well, 30 years ago we were part of one country, the Soviet Union. I knew Lithuania is a basketball country. Also, your country is now part of the European Union. I also know that there are a lot of different goods coming from the U.S., thru the port of Klaipėda, and then heading for Kazakhstan by train.   Students from Kazakhstan who are interested to study at MRU can apply until August 10th, 2020.
