The development of university infrastructure is an important factor in improving the quality of education and scientific research. On the instructions of President Vladimir Putin, the country continues to work on creating a network of world-class campuses. For example, construction work in the building of the educational and scientific center of the Institute of Medicine and Psychology on the territory of Novosibirsk State University is 50% complete. Also, in Kaliningrad, facade work has begun on the clock tower of the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
"Projects to create university campuses contribute to improving the quality of education and developing adjacent territories. For example, an educational and scientific center with an area of over 12 thousand square meters is being built on the territory of Novosibirsk State University. We are creating a powerful educational base for 700 students – from modern laboratories in chemistry, biology and medicine to a unique simulation center for practicing minimally invasive surgery skills. Currently, 50% of the work is completed. In parallel, work is underway at other sites in other cities. At the Kantiana campus of the Baltic Federal University named after Kant, façade work has already begun on the clock tower. It is important to continue developing student infrastructure in order to raise the quality of education to a new level," said Marat Khusnullin.
Currently, the NSU Educational and Scientific Center is working on the installation of roofs and facades, internal and external utility networks, and finishing work. Monolithic work and work on the installation of external walls have also been completed.
There will be three buildings on the campus in Novosibirsk. In 2024, the building for continuous classrooms was put into operation. Construction of the research center is ongoing. All buildings will be able to accommodate up to 3 thousand people.
The creation of the Kantiana university campus on the basis of the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University in Kaliningrad is also ongoing. A clock tower is located on the central building of the educational complex – the building of the Higher School of Philosophy and Social Sciences. Its height together with the spire will be 60 m. Work is currently underway on the installation of facades in the most visible part of the facility.
"It is assumed that the clock will be oriented to all four cardinal directions. They will also have several types of backlighting, each of which can be controlled independently, and the backlighting of the hands will be monochrome," said Karen Oganesyan, General Director of the Unified Customer Production Company.
The high clock tower will make the campus visible to city residents from afar. Its territory will create an atmosphere of past eras in which Kant and other outstanding thinkers lived.
The building of the Higher School of Philosophy and Social Sciences with an area of over 12 thousand square meters is designed for 1022 students. Currently, masonry work, installation of metal structures, and installation of engineering systems are underway at the site.
In total, six academic buildings and two dormitories for approximately 2.5 thousand places with co-working spaces, a fitness zone, a food court and recreational areas will be built on the territory of the Baltic Federal University. A street with cafes, shops and bank branches will also appear on the territory of the university.
The construction of the world-class Kantiana campus, with a total area of over 109,000 square meters, is planned to be completed in 2026.
Two more campuses are currently being built by specialists from the Unified Customer PPC in Orel and Yekaterinburg.
