This is what encouraged the students and teachers from Fundamental and Applied Linguistics at the Faculty of Humanities to embark on a flash mob project called ‘Send a Postcard to a Linguist’. Deputy Dean Timur Khusyainov of the Faculty of Humanities (Nizhny Novgorod), the curator of this flash mob and an experienced postcrosser, discusses whether postcards can be helpful for researchers and how they relate to digital humanities.

All students are equally engaged in research activities and share results of their findings participating in various scientific events. Students from the Faculty of Fundamental and Applied Linguistic, certainly, are not an exception. The majority of our undergraduates are enthusiastic about performing at intellectual conferences and congresses, taking part in hackathons and competitions. Thus, recently an inner institutional conference «Russian language in vision of a young researcher» was held and our youth scientists were involved in this enlightening process. We asked participants to introduce the themes of their report to share their acquired experience and impressions.
