Become the star of the semester!

The “Star Student” project officially kicked off at Azerbaijan University from September. The initiative aims to identify hardworking and talented students who demonstrate strong academic performance, active civic engagement, and personal growth, and to showcase their achievements to the broader community. The project applies to undergraduate students.

Star Students will be selected by a jury (one representative from each faculty) after the end of each examination session, based on their semester performance.

Winners of the “Star Student” title will receive a monthly scholarship of 100 AZN for the semester in which they are selected.

The jury will evaluate candidates nominated by the deaneries on a 100-point scale, according to the following criteria:

  • Academic performance - 30 points (GPA of 81+ for the completed semester, no repeated courses or academic arrears);
  • Scientific activity - 20 points (in academic conferences, publication of articles or abstracts, active involvement in the Student Scientific Society and other research groups);
  • Civic engagement, special skills, representation and leadership qualities - 20 points (initiative and responsibility in public activities, participation in volunteer and charitable initiatives, achievements in arts and sports, and other forms of active contribution);
  • Foreign language proficiency and digital skills - 20 points (participation in skill-enhancing training beyond the University’s core curriculum, international internships, or possession of relevant international certificates, such as IELTS, TOEFL, as well as the ICT certificate);
  • Discipline and exemplary conduct - 10 points (adherence to University disciplinary regulations, refraining from actions that may harm the University’s reputation or contradict its moral values, and gaining respect among faculty members and students, etc.)

Perhaps you are the star of this semester!
