A warm welcome and sincere gratitude—that's how the visit to RUDN University by Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Ghana to Russia, Mr. Koma Steem Jehu-Appiah, took place. A 1985 medical school graduate, he returned to the walls of his alma mater, where he once lived in Block 7 of the legendary student campus.
Strong connection with the alma mater
The meeting with RUDN University Rector Oleg Yastrebov was a true journey into the past. The ambassador reminisced about his student years, his professors, and the rich life in the international dormitory. It turned out he had been in the same year as the current Director of the Medical Institute, Alexey Abramov. Mr. Koma Stay Jehu-Appiah also shared a touching story about his son's name.
"When I studied at RUDN University, Vladimir Frantsevich Stanis was the rector. My wife, also a RUDN University student, and I named my son, who was born in Moscow, after him—Stanis," said Koma Stay Jehu-Appiah.
"The love for our university, the excellent Russian language skills that persist through the years, the warmth, openness, and great professional success of our graduates—after such meetings, you especially understand what a tremendous achievement our university is making on a global scale!" noted Oleg Yastrebov.
Ghana is an important partner of RUDN University:
Today, students from this country constitute the largest group from Africa: approximately 200 Ghanaians are studying at the university. Throughout its history, RUDN has trained approximately 800 highly qualified specialists for the republic. Among its graduates are members of the presidential administration, government officials, and diplomats.
At the meeting, the ambassador and the RUDN University rector discussed prospects for cooperation, including the development of new educational programs, updating agreements with Ghanaian universities, and planning the rector's working visit to the republic.
