"I HAVE CHOSEN THE UNIVERSITY TO ACHIEVE MY DREAM OF BECOMING A SCIENTIST" MARGARITA KARALYAN

Narrated by Margarita herself.

I have been interested in physics since my school days. When my teacher said that physics gives an opportunity to discover and study the unknown, to find a way out of every hopeless situation, and understand that the work done is for the benefit of humanity, I understood that my goal is to become a physicist.

While studying at YSU Faculty of Physics and getting comprehensive knowledge, it becomes clear to me that physics is one of the most interesting sciences. One finds a way out and new questions arise that need to be re-examined, which can give birth to discoveries. For example, 100 years ago scientists thought they had physics figured out, but sometime after that quantum physics was discovered.

I dream of becoming a scientist, and I chose the university to achieve my dream. My father, professors, and friends encourage me along the way. It is vital for me that they believe I can become a prominent scientist. By the way, my father is also engaged in science, and I continue his path.

Every time I discover something new, my worldview changes, and I want everyone to feel the excitement and joy I feel while studying physics. I want to contribute somehow to the development of science in Armenia, and at the same time, I try to instill love and interest in physics among children. In short, I try to do everything so that everyone becomes a science-lover and is interested in it.

I have already started my first steps toward the dissemination of science. Within the framework of the 8th International Youth Conference of the YSU Student Scientific Society, I demonstrated scientific experiments that revealed the nature and uniqueness of physics. Seeing them made the audience interested in physics, which was very exciting for me.

Despite being a freshman, I am already thinking about starting a scientific activity. I aim to deepen my knowledge in the field of astrophysics, as it includes all directions of physics. It is very difficult to understand what is happening in space, but on the other hand, what is happening there is alluring.

If people not only look down but also look up while walking, they will notice the beauty around them. Despite the difficulties in life, it is always possible to find beauty. In my opinion, the universe is vivid proof of that.

I am sure that by continuing my education at YSU and enriching my knowledge, I will be able to achieve my dream of becoming a scientist and contribute to the prosperity of my country.
