“Future Leader” Intellectual Quiz: an event aimed at developing students’ political outlook

On November 26, 2025, at the Department of Political Science and Political Technologies, an intellectual quiz titled “Future Leader” was held among first-year Political Science students as part of the UN Sustainable Development Goals No. 4 – “Quality Education” and No. 16 – “Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions.”

The main purpose of the quiz was to enhance students’ intellectual activity, deepen their political literacy, and develop leadership skills. In addition, the event assessed participants’ logical thinking, ability to apply theoretical knowledge, and capacity to make quick decisions.

The intellectual competition consisted of six rounds. The tasks covered major areas of political science: political institutions, issues of war and peace, political parties and movements, democratic theory, global and national political figures, and the ideas of prominent political thinkers.

Throughout the rounds, participants answered questions of varying complexity, demonstrating their knowledge, analytical skills, and understanding of political processes. The quiz was held in an engaging and competitive format.

Based on the overall results, the team “Marxists” scored the highest points and was awarded the title of “True Leader.” The event fostered a friendly atmosphere, encouraging knowledge exchange, creativity, and academic engagement among students.
