Nastya Menshikova on her Masters programme in Utrecht University
Hi everyone! It has already been a month since I moved to the Netherlands and started my studies at Utrecht University.
Laboratory of Sociology in Education and Science: our expedition 2019.
Laboratory of Sociology in Education and Science has just held its 10th student expedition. Student expeditions are a kind of tradition for the laboratory. It started in 2006 from our trip to Sosnovo (Leningrad oblast). Back then this was a unique experience for HSE. Right now it is quite standard and is probably the most popular form of scientific work in different campuses and at different faculties. Our university is part of the “Re-discover Russia” program, which sponsors such expeditions to different regions of Russia on a competitive basis. This year the Foundation for Educational Innovation supported 68 applications.
Our impressions of the summer student expedition
Hello dears!
We would like to share our impressions of the summer student expedition, which is held in the Kaluga region of Russia. Moscow campus of Higher School of Economics has been implementing the “Rediscovering Russia" program for several years, which funds student research expeditions to different regions of Russia on a competitive basis.

Adolescents in small towns and rural areas

We have fabulous news: our Laboratory is bringing back student expeditions! For eight years our laboratory had been organising student expeditions to small Russian cities and villages to study social inequality, educational trajectories and local communities. Since then we have taken a three-year break to take a deep breath and reflect on our experiences. But this summer we are going to embark on an expedition again. This time we will have more fresh topics and participants.

As long as the balloon doesn’t pop
One of the first SELS students, Tamara Petrova, got admitted to a Master's program in Europe. This year her Master’s thesis was focused on a very interesting area of neuroeconomics, which is still quite rare in Russia. Tamara has told us about her research and her reasons for choosing this unusual field.
