hey 
currently am on my thierd year in a high-thec university (my graduation year ) but here am i with no clue what to presente as a project 
am new at this and i don't exactly know what to do, i don't know much in this field but i can learn quickly so don't worry about that 
so am asking you folks to fulfill me with some ideas 
I am new to the Arduino so take what you want from this...
How to come up with a project idea:
- Scroll through the forums and see what other people are doing. Try to replicate/improve it without plagiarizing it. Maybe add a twist or added feature
- Look at your daily life. What information do you gather and make decisions on? Things like decisions about the weather. Is it raining? How long has it been since the last rain? Based on that, decide to water the garden.
- Are there things that you would like to do but are too monotonous or require a fast reaction time? Electronics don't mind asking the same question over and over many times per second and then immediately reacting.
Finding out what your mentors are in to and maybe coming up with a cheaper part or an subshoot idea may be a winner future long term investment of time?
Have a look at this page:-

@tvadrovski, you have not even told us what subjects you hope to graduate in - is it fine-arts, physics, economics, medicine ? ? ?

Build a piece of interactive art. Ask a art student for random ideas.
Nobody can criticise because art can be anything and doesn't need to have a 'useful purpose', other than to entertain, surprise or provoke thought.

Build an RS485 and power multiplexer so that a series of sensors arranged in a star configuration can be sequentially powered up and connected to a remote data gathering server.
a very useful project, especially one that you can use would be one that sits between the keyboard and PC and automatically adds punctuation and capitalization.
I'd add a speal cheacker, but since I don't use one, and I can see you do not, I figured, let someone else invet that.

We're wealthy enough to buy our punctuation marks wholesale, but please consider those in third world countries that have to purchase theirs, one at a time, on the black market.
Also, the OP, from his name, appears to be from Eastern Europe and English is likely not to be his native language.
Google translate isn't perfect!
How well do you write Russian?

since we in the West can afford punctuation marks, all the more reason to have an interface that makes them up from the either !

It's my understanding that criticizing art is a well established profession. It often pays better than the artist themselves!
That said, I dig the sculpture you showed. I could watch that for quite a while.
