The international competition was aimed at improving the quality of the state final certification results of graduates in 2026, promoting the scientific research activities of students of Russian and foreign higher educational institutions, identifying and supporting the scientific potential of young researchers, as well as developing international academic cooperation. The competition was held within the framework of the international cooperation program.

Representatives of 18 higher educational institutions, 280 participants from Russia and foreign countries, participated in the competition. In conditions of high international competition, the works presented by the students of the Ijevan branch of YSU stood out for their scientific and practical value and were deservedly competitive among the numerous research works presented.

The aspiration of young researchers is notable not only for studying the modern changes taking place in the field of education and technologies, but also for analyzing and making sense of new processes, identifying development trends and proposing their own approaches and priorities for further development. Such a research stance testifies to the students' readiness to form independent scientific thinking and actively engage in the process of solving modern educational problems.

The final qualification works presented by the students were distinguished by their relevance, practical orientation and application of modern approaches to education. The works presented original methodologies and approaches, which are based on modern perceptions of the design of the educational process, gamification, the use of digital platforms and innovative educational technologies.

Participation in the competition was an opportunity for our graduates to present their research results at the international level, gain new experience in scientific cooperation and demonstrate the potential of young researchers in Armenia. Victory in such an international competition is an important achievement for both the students and the Ijevan branch of Yerevan State University.

On behalf of the leadership and teaching staff of YSU IB, we congratulate Hasmik Arzumanyan, Elena Sahakyan and Ani Matinyan on their well-deserved victory and express our gratitude to the scientific supervisor, Professor Svetlana Minasyan, for her professional support and guidance in the students' scientific research work.

We wish our young researchers new scientific successes, interesting and promising projects, bold ideas and new discoveries, continuous professional growth and achievements for the development of modern science and education.
