Maria Andreeva became interested in satellite engineering in Year 6. Then, she was a prize-winner of the Top Class (Vysshiy Pilotazh) competition, gave lectures for school students, and took part in meetings with the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin. Two years ago, a satellite she helped develop was launched into space. This year, Maria entered HSE University to study on the Information Science and Computation Technology programme delivered by the HSE Tikhonov Moscow Institute of Electronics and Mathematics (MIEM). In an interview with the HSE News Service, the first-year student spoke about her passion for space and the opportunities she has found at the university.
