My name is Shohruh Razakov, and I am currently a freshman at the Business Management faculty at IBSU, where I am working hard to develop the skills necessary for a successful career in business. I decided to attend this university after one of my close friends highly recommended it to me, and after researching it, I felt that it was the perfect place to pursue my studies.  

I’ve been living in Georgia for almost two years now, and I truly enjoy it here. The food is delicious, the people are incredibly warm and welcoming, and the nature is absolutely breathtaking, with its stunning mountains, lush greenery, and picturesque landscapes that make everyday life here an adventure.  

At IBSU, I’m very satisfied with the level of education I’m receiving; the professors are knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects, and the administration is always ready to assist me with any questions or issues I have. The academic environment is supportive and encourages growth, which makes me feel motivated to do my best. Over the course of my time here, I’ve made many new friends, and the sense of community at the university has made it easier for me to adjust to life away from home. I feel truly supported by both the faculty and the staff, who are always available to help. Looking ahead, after I finish university, I plan to stay in Georgia for a long time. I have grown very fond of the country, its culture, and the people, and I look forward to building my future here.
