Student A: Let me Introduce myself. I’m A…, a first-year student at KSTU.
Student B: How do you do A? I’m glad to meet you. My name is B. You see, I’m a first year student too, at Oxford University.
St.A: What faculty do you study at?
St B: I’m a student of the Slavonic faculty. And you? What faculty do you study at?
St A: I study at the faculty of Economics.
St B: So you are a future economist. And how many faculties are there at the University, I wonder?
St A: There are 7 faculties, where more than 7 thousand students study. And, as far as I know, Oxford University is very old. When was it founded?
St B: Yes, Oxford University is one of the oldest Universities in the world. It was founded in 1247. But it is famous not only because it is very old. There is a very high level of teaching here. The best teachers work at Oxford.
St A: Our teachers are also highly qualified. Among them there are 31 doctors of science, professors, 144 candidates of science, about 20 academicians.
