"Pirogov University is regularly in the process of creating, implementing and improving new approaches not only to education, but also to the environment in which our students study. On this trip, we focused on what is really important to them — the architecture of educational spaces, convenience, ergonomics and the atmosphere of educational institutions, which become the main place of stay for students during their studies. By combining the experience and efforts of the two countries, we will open up new opportunities for students to unlock their potential and self—actualize," said Vladislava Belyakova, Vice Rector for Youth Policy.

The experts focused on the exchange of experience in creating advanced infrastructure and a comfortable educational environment within the campuses of higher education institutions, as well as the possibility of scaling best practices for student education and the active development of extracurricular activities.

The delegation included Vladislava Belyakova, Vice-Rector for Youth Policy, Ekaterina Ivanova, Deputy Director of the Tashkent Branch, Elena Krasnikova, Head of the Campus Development Department, Irina Reshetnikova, Head of the Extracurricular Activities Department, Elizaveta Yakovleva, Head of the Exposition and Exhibition Department.

Herzen Russian State Pedagogical University, St. Petersburg State University, MEPhI, as well as EMU University. The heads of partner organizations conducted detailed tours of their campuses, presenting unique developments in the organization of student infrastructure.
