The Rector of the University and Corresponding Member of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Professor Volodymyr Zahorskyi, held a working meeting with an extraordinary guest to discuss possible ways of cooperation and initiatives regarding the preservation and restoration of the Earth's ecosystem. Since the main focus of UNFU is fundamental and applied scientific research on topical sectoral and complex cross-sectoral problems of the socio-ecological and economic development of Ukraine, consolidation with such organizations as BO "Greening of Ukraine" is expedient.

The UNFU scientist is once again on the prestigious list of the world's most cited scientists.

Feedback. Instagram post. Gradient blue turquoise. Review. Template feedback. Post

Stanford University has announced another "2023 List of the World's Best 2% Scientists" in two categories. For another year in a row, the head of the Department of Technologies of Wood Composite Materials, Pulp, and Paper of the Ukrainian National Forestry University, Professor Pavlo BEKHTA, entered the list of the best scientists in the world in terms of citations to his publications. In addition, Professor Pavlo Bekhta ranks 8th on the list of the best scientists in the world in his scientific specialty, forestry and materials, and 29th on the list of the 98 best Ukrainian scientists. This year, only 5 scientists from Lviv were included in the ranking of the most influential scientists by citations in 2022: Sibyrnyi A. (14), Institute of Cell Biology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine; Bekhta P. (29), NLTU of Ukraine; and three representatives of Lviv Polytechnic University: R. Tkachenko (32), I. Izonin (46), and V. Vysotska (58).

The ranking list contains the names of the top 2% of scientists whose publications are most often cited by other authors. The entire scientific output of individual scientists is evaluated according to a complex bibliometric index (the so-called C-score), which takes into account such criteria as the Hirsch index, the number of citations, the impact factor, and the place in the list of authors. The rating is divided into two lists: the first covers scientific achievements for the entire period of the scientist's professional activity (Table 1-Authors_caree), and the second covers only the achievements of 2022 (Table 1-Authors_singleyr).

The full list of outstanding scientists can be found at the following link:

We sincerely congratulate Professor Pavlo Bekhta on his high achievements!

Live communication about important things

ak 1

Recently, the adaptation course "Live Communication" was held at the Ukrainian National Forestry University, which was attended by the chaplain of the university, Fr. Bohdan Kulyk, and the deputy head of the Western Regional Administration, Colonel Dmytro Lishchynskyi. They talked about various things, but mostly about the war and its influence on people, in particular on the youth. The issues of families who lost relatives in the war were touched upon, and not without reason: by the Decree of the President of Ukraine, for personal courage and selfless actions shown in the defense of the state sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, and loyalty to the military oath, border hero Yuriy Zilinskyi (the father of a student of the NLTU of Ukraine) was awarded the Order "For Courage" III degree (posthumously).

Border guard Yuriy Zilinsky gave his life to defending his native land from the enemy. Senior soldier (posthumously) Yuriy Zilinsky, as a member of the rapid response border commandant of the Donetsk border detachment, took part in repelling the armed aggression of the Russian Federation in the Donetsk region in December 2022. Yuriy bravely performed all firing tasks, always volunteered to be the first to advance to the position, and repeatedly came under artillery fire. On the night of January 9, 2023, the enemy went on the offensive with the support of artillery and mortar fire, attacking the positions of the defenders near Soledar. Despite the massive shelling and overwhelming enemy forces, Yuriy, as part of the border unit, courageously held the defense of the designated borders. In the end, after fierce battles, the unit was forced to retreat to other positions, but the enemy did not stop shelling. During the maneuver, Yuriy received shrapnel wounds that were not compatible with life. The Border Guard Hero is buried in the city of Radekhiv, Lviv region. Olena's wife became a widow. Two daughters were left without a father.

Student mobility at the University of Sustainable Development in Eberswalde

Бублей 2логоCooperation between UNFU and the University of Sustainable Development of Eberswalde (Germany) under the Erasmus+ program has been going on for more than 8 years.

Increasing the number of students and scientific and pedagogical workers participating in academic mobility programs is a key priority of the "Strategy of Internationalization of the Ukrainian National Forestry University for the period until 2026".

Two students, Sofia Bublei, a student of LG-31, and Sofia Skrypets, a student of MO-61m, are currently studying at the University of Sustainable Development in Eberswalde under the Erasmus+ program. Feedback from Sofia Bublei regarding the peculiarities of studying in Germany is in this material.

Sofia, tell us about your studies at UNFU. What are your impressions of studying forestry?

Sofia: "Now I am studying in the 3rd year of my bachelor's degree, majoring in "forestry" at UNFU. In 2019, she graduated from the Zaporizhia Lyceum EIT; after that, she entered the Zaporizhia College EIT, majoring in "Tourism," and graduated with honors in 2022. In 2021, she entered the Zaporizhia National University majoring in forestry, but in 2022, she transferred to the Ukrainian National Forestry University for the same major in connection with military operations in my city. At the same time, I always had a desire to study at a highly specialized university. The impressions of studying at UNFU during this period are only good. This university is inspiring! A very professional teaching staff that is always ready to support the student and continues to work during such a difficult time in the country. I have never once regretted that I studied at UNFU."

How did you get the Erasmus+ scholarship? What is the size of the scholarship, and where do you live?

Sofia: "I learned about this project from the official Instagram page of the Department of International Relations at UNFU. On the same day, my academic supervisor (I.I. Delegan) informed me about the possibility of studying abroad. Together with him, we decided to submit documents for participation in the competition. The first stage of the selection was an interview with the Selection Commission. A week later, the results were announced, and I was nominated to study at the University of Sustainable Development in Eberswalde. Later, a study agreement was reached, and now I am studying for a semester on exchange, majoring in International Forest Ecosystem Management. The amount of the scholarship per month is 1,050 euros (including the cost of accommodation and travel, student insurance, and student tickets). I live in a student dormitory."

What are your impressions of the host university?

Sofia: "Eberswalde University has a very family atmosphere. For help and easy adaptation by international students, there are buddy friends. International students were provided with all the necessary documents regarding the organization of their studies, and meetings were held with representatives of the international department, faculty, and specialty. Many measures are being taken to integrate new students into the university environment."

Бублей 3Бублей 4

What subjects are you studying in the current semester?

Sofia: "I have the following disciplines this semester: Environmental Policy and Economics, Adaptive Ecosystem Management, Forest Ecology and Mensuration, Academic Writing and Presenting, German, Applied Silviculture, Ecosystem Development and Restoration."

бублей 6Бублей 5

What are the main differences between studying in Germany and Ukraine?

Sofia: "There are many differences. These are two different education systems. The main feature of studying in Germany is that the student is as independent as possible in choosing to attend classes; most of the study is devoted to independent work. There is a maximum focus on the student."

Did you manage to make friends? Do you have time for rest and travel?

Sofia: "It's quite easy to make friends in Germany by attending events for students. I have time to rest on weekends, but I'm not traveling yet."
