Science, History, and Memory (BSUFL)

The second day of the academic and cultural visit by students from the Volga Region State University of Service combined an exploration of contemporary scientific fields and Belarus’s historical and cultural heritage with an introduction to university traditions.

The morning began with attendance at a plenary session of the international scientific conference, "Language in the Era of Digital Transformation and the Development of Artificial Intelligence." Following this, the guests toured the Computational Linguistics Laboratory and took part in an interactive session focused on the potential applications of artificial intelligence in translation.

In the afternoon, the students visited the Khatyn Memorial Complex and its museum, gaining a deeper understanding of the tragic chapters of our shared history during the Great Patriotic War. The cultural program continued with a visit to the observation deck of the National Library of Belarus, and the day concluded with an evening of military-patriotic songs titled "We Must Not Forget These Paths"—an event that brought participants together around the themes of historical memory and respect for the heroic achievements of the victorious generation.

The second day of the visit underscored the vital importance of both scientific dialogue and the preservation of historical memory for our two nations. The experiences gained through these meetings, excursions, and the shared evening served as a meaningful introduction to the Republic of Belarus for the visiting students.
