Faculty of Foreign Students ONMU congratulations students of the 2-nd year of study on specialty 271. Marine and River Transport Okediji Juwon Segun and Unegbu Kelechi Basil who have been selected as Erasmus + study mobility programme exchange students at Latvian Maritime Academy (Riga, Latvia) for full time studies during the spring semester of 2021.

On February 14, 2021, on Valentine's Day, foreign students of the Preparatory department of ONMU together with a head of the Pre-University Training Department As. Professor Victoria Sikorska visited the Odessa National Scientific Library and took part in the Great Odessa Library Night - ІІІ. During the Library Night at the ONNB, foreign students of the Preparatory department of ONMU read poems about love in their native language and translated it into Ukrainian language.

On September 22, 2020, YEP, jointly with the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, the Ukrainian Startup Fund, with the support of the USAID Competitive Economy Program in Ukraine (USAID CEP) presented the Entrepreneurial University initiative. Its main goal is to bring university entrepreneurship in Ukraine to a qualitatively new level and develop a trend to create startups among youth and students. Odessa National Maritime University became a participant in this project.

Within the pilot project, in the autumn semester of 2020, the academic course "Innovative Entrepreneurship and Startup Management" was launched and integrated into pilot universities' curricula.

108 teachers and 2,500 students from 64 universities from 29 cities of Ukraine took part in the pilot semester. For 4 months teachers have conducted almost 3,000 lectures and workshops, and students worked on more than 400 startup ideas. From September to December, more than 600 feedbacks were received from teachers and 5,671 feedbacks from students. The average rate of the guideline's quality is 7.55 out of 10 (under the teachers' estimation). The rate of interest and usefulness of the course is 4.53 out of 5 (under the students' estimation). According to both teachers' and students' feedback, the course is one of the most useful courses at universities. It is essential that most universities have already confirmed their participation in the project in the following semesters. Besides, for the spring semester of 2021, 26 more teachers from 12 new universities are already confirmed to join the course.

Moreover, not only students are interested in creating startups, but also teachers. At the end of the semester, we have at least three startups with teachers' participation. This shows the creation of a new entrepreneurial culture and community at various university levels.

On December 18, YEP conducted a final Entrepreneurial University Forum for teachers of the pilot semester. The results of the first half of the year showed a high level of interest and openness of universities to the topic of entrepreneurship, considerable potential of university entrepreneurship in Ukraine. At the forum, the teachers confirmed their thirst for development in this direction. This is also very important in terms of the entire ecosystem and digital economy development in the country, which was also confirmed by the active participation and feedback from the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine (FB Mykhailo Fedorov, MDT) and the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine (Ministry of Education and Science). At the same time, the realization of such potential requires further efforts of the team and continue to develop of the "Entrepreneurial University" initiative: improving the content and methodological materials, attracting new universities, continuous training of teachers, development of innovative management level of universities' leaders, creating opportunities for further development of student startups (incubation, competition, etc.). To the effective and systematic implementation of these activities, it is planned to strengthen the management and expert team of the project, attract additional international expertise, and launch a series of regular events (competitions, seminars, conferences) for students, teachers, and rectors. In addition, by the beginning of the second semester of the 2020-21 academic year, the release of an updated methodology of the course "Innovative Entrepreneurship and Startup Management" is planned.

In February 2021, it is also scheduled to conduct the first national final of the students' startups competition. More than 90 applications have already been received from student teams to participate in the contest.
