The department's teachers Pshenichny R.M., Bolshanina S.B. and Dychenko T.V. took part in the Stage II of the All-Ukrainian Competition-Defense of Scientific and Research Works of Students of
the Small Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, which took place on March 1, 2026. As members of the jury, they evaluated research projects, provided professional recommendations and supported young researchers during the defense of their works.
Despite wartime conditions, air raids and the distance learning format, students conduct experiments, work with reagents and laboratory equipment, analyze the results obtained and substantiate their conclusions with arguments.
The presented works covered analytical, organic, inorganic and environmental chemistry. A significant part of the research has a practical focus. Systematic preparation is noticeable - both on
the part of students and their supervisors.

Working on the jury of the chemistry section is a responsibility that requires attention, impartiality, and deep professional analysis.

Congratulations to all participants and winners of the competition, their supervisors, and the organizers of the event.
