On September 30, 2025, the head of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Valery Falkov, held a meeting with graduates of the "Intern of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia" project, which included representatives of the State University of Management.

At the meeting, graduates of all three seasons of the project, who are currently preparing to take up positions or are already working at the Ministry of Education and Science and its subordinate organizations, asked the minister questions and voiced proposals for improving the department's work.

Valery Falkov noted that participation in the project gave the children a chance to prove themselves.

"I am confident that all of you will fondly remember this experience, working at the ministry, and some will certainly connect their lives with this place and have a brilliant career," the minister said.

During the conversation, Valery Falkov discussed the specifics of public service, how to build a capable and reliable team of like-minded individuals, and shared his life experiences.

The State University of Management was represented at the meeting with the minister by Almaz Akhaev, Head of the Patriotic Department of the Department of Youth Policy and Educational Work, and Evgeny Shchedrin, an employee of the Department of Civil Service and Administrative Activities of the Ministry of Education and Science and a graduate of ISUiP.

Evgeny Shchedrin is a participant in the first season of the project. Among approximately 3,000 participants, he was among the top 30 students and master's students offered an internship at the ministry.

"During my internship, I handled official investigations and audits, was recognized by my mentor, and received a permanent position in the Department of Civil Service and Administrative Activities. I graduated from the State University of Management in Political Science, which is a slightly different field. I completed my master's degree in economic security at the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute (MEPhI). At the same time, the State University of Management also contributed to my development in this area, as in 2021 I won a prize at the International Financial Security Olympiad," recalls Evgeny Shchedrin.

Almaz Akhaev participated in the third season and also made it into the top thirty interns. He has now begun the process of applying for a job at the Department of State Youth Policy and Educational Activities of the Ministry of Education and Science.

"During my internship, I provided organizational support for federal events, helping prepare analytical materials, draft legal acts, and reporting documentation. In addition to the work-related events, we were taken on excursions to Patriot Park and the new campus of Bauman Moscow State Technical University. We also held a roundtable discussion with Deputy Minister Airat Gatiyatov, and the interns played a friendly football match with ministry staff," said Almaz Akhaev.

As a reminder, the "Intern of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia" project has been running since 2023. During this time, it has reached 86 regions across the country, and the number of applications has increased 2.5-fold to 4,600. Sixty-three winners have found employment with the Ministry and its subordinate organizations, 15 of whom have already received promotions.

Applications for Season 4 will begin this December. Learn more about the project on the website.
