This summer, three students, ecology majors from Campus Saint-Christophe, France, visited Altai Republic to have a short-term internship in a national reserve.
The agreement between ASTU and Campus Saint-Christophe was signed back in 2014, to encourage academic exchange programs as well as expand professional contacts with France, so this summer, ASTU arranged a short-term internship for the 2nd year ecology majors who were to come to the Uch-Enmek National Reserve in Altai Republic.
During the internship, the students had a vast variety of things to do, such as listing the herbs which can be found in the reserve, improving facilities, drawing maps and making interesting routes for tourists, working with GPS devices etc. This experience helped the interns to master a lot of new skills and gain some unique professional experience.
