On September 5, 2025, the State University of Management hosted the ceremonial launch of the educational program “Banking Business Management” – a joint project of Expobank JSC and the State University of Management, as well as the opening of the Expobank laboratory.
Let us recall that the cooperation agreement between GUU and Expobank was signed in February of this year.
The opening ceremony of the laboratory and the launch of the program began with a ceremonial ribbon cutting, after which the students of the State University of Management were presented not only with a bright classroom with small comfortable tables equipped with 26 new laptops, but also with the prospect of becoming leaders in the financial industry.
Expobank has 37 branches in 19 regions of Russia and ranks 25th in terms of capital in the market. It has an ecosystem that includes medicine, hotel and automobile businesses. This is a relatively small boutique bank that specializes in complex non-standard transactions with high uncertainty, thereby bypassing competitors who prefer standard work schemes. Students of the First Management will have to learn such a creative approach to banking. As an additional motivation, Expobank will pay a personal scholarship to each student who enters the network program before the first certification. In the future, only the most capable students who complete the first session without debts and Cs will retain the additional reward.
Greeting the assembled students of the State University of Management, Vice-Rector Dmitry Bryukhanov recalled yesterday's meeting with first-year students, which caused a great stir, and expressed confidence that the new laboratory will help students in implementing their projects.
"Today, thanks to the active position of our partner, we are opening a beautiful and functional classroom. We hope that this base will help you quickly get involved in the learning process and come to classes with joy, especially since Expobank is ready to help in implementing the educational program of banking business management. The program will help you immerse yourself in the complex world of financial flows, which today is closely connected with the IT sphere, so the classroom is equipped with the latest technology. Thanks to Expobank, we are glad that the first week of the academic year was marked by such a wonderful event," said Dmitry Bryukhanov.
Expobank's Director of Human Resources, Galina Weisband, told the students that this was the bank's first experience of this kind, so it would learn to build the educational process together with them.
"We believe that the main client of the university is not students or their parents, but employers who know better than others what kind of specialists they need. Our educational program, on the one hand, has academic importance, and on the other, it develops you in the banking profession. Classes will be held not only in this auditorium, where our specialists will come, but also in our bank. We are very much looking forward to seeing you in practice, and later as HR specialists, but in no way do we limit your ambitions and aspirations if you choose to work elsewhere. Welcome to our department!" Galina Weisband greeted the students.
Expobank's Director of Human Resources Maxim Dzyuba and Deputy Chairman of the Board Galina Lobova introduced the students to the company's activities.
"We believe that the university auditorium is the place with the greatest potential. That is why we are here and honestly say that we want to hunt you down, but we do not chain you to the radiator – you are free to choose your career path. We have 80 scholarship programs, internships with good salaries for people even with zero experience in the banking sector, young but experienced mentors. We are looking forward to the opportunity to work with you," Maxim Dzyuba addressed the future bankers.
At the end of the ceremony, the students asked questions that interested them, which mainly concerned the non-standard nature of their work, as stated by the guests, and also wrote messages to their future selves on the board.
