On behalf of the Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Valery Falkov, Deputy Minister Airat Gatiyatov visited the construction site of the second phase of the project during a working visit to Novosibirsk.new campus of NSU, which is being built within the framework of the national project "Youth and Children" – an educational and scientific centerInstitute of Medicine and Medical Technologies(UNC IMMT) and the NSU Research Center (R&D Center). Construction of these facilities is scheduled for completion this year.
Together with Novosibirsk Region Governor Andrey Travnikov and NSU Rector Dmitry Pyshny, the Deputy Minister of Education and Science inspected the facilities of the world-class campus under construction and held a meeting on the project's implementation.
The construction of NSU's new campus consists of several phases. The first phase includes the academic building.Specialized Scientific Center of Novosibirsk State UniversityThe NSU Specialized Scientific Center (SENC) recreation center and NSU dormitory complex, which accommodates 690 students, were commissioned and have been operational since September 1, 2024. One of the second-stage facilities, the classroom building, opened in late August 2025. It will be able to accommodate approximately 1,700 students at a time. The building includes four classrooms, the largest of which can accommodate 400 students, a research library, a student project center, coworking spaces, and a conference hall.
The new building of the NSU Institute of Medical and Mathematical Technologies (IMMT) will provide training facilities for over 700 students in medical fields, including new programs such as Medical Cybernetics and Industrial Pharmacy, which opened at NSU in 2025. It will house practical workshops and laboratories for molecular pharmacology, metabolomic research, medicinal chemistry, molecular virology, oncology, and other fields, as well as a simulation center for practicing the practical skills of future doctors.
The NSU Research Center building will house up to 180 university researchers—graduate students and young scientists. Promising scientific and technological areas will be developed there, including space instrumentation, photonics and sensors, biomedical and pharmaceutical technologies, synchrotron technologies, high-performance computing, and others. The Research Center will also house a pilot production facility for biotech products.
"NSU's new campus is an investment in the future of Russian science and education. It's creating an environment where education, research, and technology work together as a unified system, and where students and young scientists are provided with world-class opportunities," noted Airat Gatiyatov.
Construction and installation work has been fully completed at the NSU IMMT USC building, including laying walls and partitions, installing the roof, stained-glass windows, and the façade. Interior finishing is well underway: ceilings and walls are complete, electrical wiring and outlets are being installed, elevator installation is complete, and door installation has begun. Commissioning of internal utility systems, such as fire alarms, has also begun. Partial deliveries of equipment and furniture have begun.
Interior finishing work is also underway at the NSU Research Center, and preparations have begun for the installation of cleanrooms. The technical readiness of the NSU Research Center and the NSU Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics (IMMT) Research Center buildings is 73.5% and 84.5%, respectively.
At the direction of President Vladimir Putin, a network of modern campuses is being created in Russia. By 2030, the country is expected to have a constellation of 25 campuses. The Government of the Russian Federation and the Ministry of Education and Science are leading this effort. Funding for the project is provided by federal and regional budgets, as well as extra-budgetary sources.
