The Future of Science and Finance: Physics Students Master Financial Literacy

A special curatorial session for future specialists in Physics and Nanotechnology was held at the faculty.

A modern scientist is not only someone dedicated to formulas and experiments but also a pragmatic professional who knows how to manage their resources effectively. This was the core theme of the meeting between 2nd-year students of the "Physics and Nanotechnology" group and their curator, Ashirbek Azamat.

Key Discussion Points

In the digital age, financial literacy has become as fundamental a skill as computer literacy. During the session, participants discussed:

• Personal Budgeting at 20: How to distribute scholarships and income from first projects to cover both educational needs and self-development.
• Investing in Science-Intensive Technologies: Students explored how their professional knowledge in nanotechnology can help them better understand trends in the high-tech investment market.
• Cybersecurity: How to protect digital assets and avoid falling victim to online scams and phishing.

Why is this important for Physicists?

"The ability to analyze data and identify cause-and-effect relationships is a major strength of our students. These same skills are critically important for financial management," noted the group curator, Ashirbek Azamat.

The meeting was held in an open dialogue format. Students actively asked questions about cryptocurrencies, tax specifics for young researchers, and how to build their first "financial safety net."

Such events help our students look toward the future with confidence and effectively realize their potential—not only in laboratories but in life!
