SPbU launches official English Telegram channel

From important deadline alerts to cultural events, Saint Petersburg University’s newly launched English Telegram channel promises to be a valuable resource for every international student and faculty member.

A sister channel to our main Russian Telegram account (@spbuniversity1724), «What’s new SPbU» is here to provide a comprehensive overview of the University life, tailored specifically to the interests of international students and staff. We are here to keep you up to date with all the important deadlines, events and opportunities that the University has to offer, as well as the day-to-day campus life.

  • International student interviews: I’d rather work with hardware — it’s harder to automate! 
  • New courses and upcoming events: Unlock the Russian Language with SPbU’s course for English-speakers! 
  • Updates on admissions and academic opportunities: Countdown for the final round of 2025 admissions! 
  • Campus life and news: Sakura season has officially begun in SPbU!
