FSU Ukraine Task Force

Dr. Anna Romanova, a researcher at the Learning Systems Institute and a member of Florida State’s Ukraine Task Force, visited the Dedman College of Hospitality to present on the power of tourism for growth and recovery.

Florida State University's Ukraine Task Force (UTF) recently hosted six visitors from Nizhyn, Ukraine, affiliated with the Nizhyn Lyceum (magnet high school), a historic institution founded in the 19th century. Among the visitors were three high school students and three teachers/administrators. The students are all members of the Lyceum's Robotics Club.

Hack Disaster - The International Hackathon to Rebuild Cities is the first-ever online hackathon that partners Ukrainian Students with US Students to help solve the world’s most urgent and critical challenges.

Selected as one of the few BridgeUSA fellows, Dr. Andrii Balendr spent July immersed in the academic life and diverse community at Florida State University. During this time, he gained valuable insights and best practices to inform his development of English curricula tailored to various categories of personnel.

Fueled by his passion for data science and international collaboration, Dr. Andrii Roskladka thrived during his month-long BridgeUSA academic fellowship at Florida State University and is eager to apply the knowledge he gained upon his return to Ukraine. 

From a childhood passion to a revered teaching career, Dr. Nataliia Safonova has dedicated her life to advancing English education in Ukraine. As one of four BridgeUSA Ukrainian academic fellows, she spent this past summer at FSU.

Driven by ambitions for his academic field, university, and country, Dr. Taras Panchenko was thrilled to be one of four Ukrainian scholars chosen for the BridgeUSA academic fellowship hosted at Florida State University (FSU) this summer. 

Florida State University's Ukraine Task Force hosted 14 educators from Ukraine this summer. An area that resonated strongly with the groups that visited FSU was the university's commitment to veteran success and the programs that support that goal.
