«One of the priorities of the university is the continuous improvement of the quality of education received by students. For us, it is a priority for the students to acquire up-to-date knowledge and professional skills during the training, which make them competitive in the labor market and interesting for the employer. What is important is not the number of graduates with red diplomas. but what stands behind these red diplomas — many years of experience of mentors, practice in leading organizations and enterprises in the real sector of the economy, work on scientific research and development of cross-professional skills. And this is what we will continue to work on, as a university community, from year to year» commented Rector Mr. Dmitry Glushko.
