Today, Russia celebrates the third anniversary of the reunification of the Donetsk People's Republic, Luhansk People's Republic, and the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions.

On this day in 2022, in the St. George's Hall of the Grand Kremlin Palace, President Vladimir Putin and the heads of the historical regions—Denis Pushilin, Leonid Pasechnik, Yevgeny Balitsky, and Vladimir Saldo—signed international treaties granting these entities accession to Russia. The new regions retained their status as republics and oblasts, as well as their names. Russian was declared the official language of the DPR and LPR.

On the eve of this event, referendums were held, according to the results of which 99.23% of voters in the DPR voted in favor of joining the Russian Federation, 98.42% in the LPR, 93.11% in the Zaporizhzhia region, and 87.05% in the Kherson region.

The referendums were held in full compliance with the norms and principles of international law on self-determination of peoples in accordance with the UN Charter, the International Covenants on Human Rights of 1966 and the Helsinki Final Act of the CSCE of 1975.

Today is a holiday not only for residents of the new regions, but for all of Russia, as it has become a symbol of the unity of the Russian people, the strength of national culture, and the restoration of historical justice.

We congratulate all Russians and wish for the speedy establishment of peace and tranquility throughout our country.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On September 25-26, 2025, the State University of Management hosted an introductory session, "Russian Education and Science in a Changing World," which opened a series of training events on managing international activities in the academic environment ("Academic Reserve: International Track"), initiated by Konstantin Mogilevsky, Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.

More than 140 people from among the heads of international departments of higher education and scientific organizations gathered for training at the Business Center of the State University of Management.

On behalf of the host party, Vladimir Stroev, Rector of the State University of Management, welcomed those gathered.

"Today, a new Academic Reserve program begins at SUM, this time with an international track. A year and a half ago, we implemented a rector's track, and a quarter of its graduates have already become university rectors and vice-rectors. So the system is working, there's a need for qualified personnel, and we need to actively participate and demonstrate our strengths. The project is not just about studying, but also about building a community and networking in the relevant field. I wish you success and, upon completion of the course, the positions you aspire to or strengthening your existing positions. SUM is always happy to assist you with this."

Reports on the status, trends, objectives, and challenges of international cooperation between higher education institutions and scientific organizations were presented by:

Ksenia Trinchenko, Director of the Department of International Cooperation of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia; Alexey Svistunov, Director of the Department of Personnel Policy of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia; Elena Galaktionova, Deputy Director of the Department for Multilateral Humanitarian Cooperation and Cultural Relations of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia; Armen Oganesyan, Acting Deputy Head of the Department of Permit and Visa Work of the Migration Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.

Of particular value to those gathered was the presentation by Olga Petrova, Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation. She emphasized the need for interdepartmental cooperation in creating conditions for the full adaptation of international students and their integration into Russian society. She also emphasized the importance of universities and research organizations in shaping Russia's attractive image internationally, as they convey to international students the values, ideas, and potential that make our country worthy of admiration.

A key element of the program was a lively dialogue between its initiator and mastermind, Konstantin Mogilevsky, and the meeting participants. Konstantin Mogilevsky emphasized the importance of receiving open feedback from those directly involved in developing international relations to ensure the synchronous work of the Ministry and the international services of universities and research organizations.

During the two-day intensive course, students were able to learn about current priorities for international activity, receive expert analysis of the current state of international cooperation in education and science, and master the fundamentals of strategic planning for international activity.

Participants will then undergo intensive distance learning on a digital educational platform, as well as two in-person modules on mastering best practices in international management.

By December 4, 2025, teams of specialists, led by experienced experts and mentors, will develop 15 framework strategies for developing international activities, differentiated depending on the initial parameters of the organizations represented.

The course's comprehensive program will foster the development of a talent pool of international cooperation specialists, foster a professional community, and serve as a foundation for participants' continued professional growth, shaping a comprehensive vision, and developing international activities within a specific educational or scientific organization.

It should be noted that "Academic Reserve: International Track" is the successor to the "Academic Reserve" program for the systematic training of a reserve of management personnel for higher education and scientific organizations, which was launched at the State University of Management in 2022.

From September 25 to 28, 2025, the International Forum "World Atomic Week" was held at VDNKh, marking the 80th anniversary of the Russian nuclear industry. A robotics project festival was held as part of the event, with a family from the State University of Management (GUU) participating.

On Saturday, September 27, a robotics project festival was held at the World Atomic Week venue, bringing together young inventors from across Russia. Schoolchildren and students presented their developments in artificial intelligence and machine vision, logistics optimization, and automation in the agricultural sector and urban planning. Particular attention was paid to socially oriented projects. In total, approximately 30 youth engineering solutions were presented at the festival, most of which can be adapted to meet the needs of industrial enterprises, including those in the nuclear industry.

One of the festival participants was Artem Nikitin, son of Dmitry Nikitin, a research fellow at the State University of Management and an eighth-grade student at the Skolkovo Innovation Center International Gymnasium. His project, "Automated Tomato Sorting System for Fungal Infections, Rot, and Mechanical Damage Using AI," aims to create a crop sorting system using neural networks and machine vision. At the robotics project festival, the young engineer presented a prototype demonstrating the system's capabilities. Artem worked on the development of the MVP with his brother, Yaroslav Nikitin, a student at the State University of Management, and Dmitry Nikitin, a research fellow at the State University of Management, served as the mentor for the team of young inventors. It is important to note that during the project, a computer program was registered—software for controlling an automated tomato sorting system designed to identify and reject fruits with fungal infections, rot, and mechanical damage—and a certificate was received.

The engineering solution presented was highly praised by industry experts. Following the festival's competition, the Nikitin family's project was recognized as the best in the "Food Security" category. We congratulate Artem Nikitin on his victory and wish him continued success in his engineering endeavors!

SUM scientists have repeatedly proven their strength and high level of competence in design and technological projects. The university's scientific and educational environment is designed to support and promote initiatives aimed at achieving the strategic objective of strengthening Russia's technological sovereignty.

This is the second year that the Robotics Project Festival is taking place. This project, organized by Rosatom's Mechanical Engineering Division, aims to foster children's interest in science and engineering, as well as identify those with a talent for creative thinking. This year, the World Atomic Week youth program brought together 19,000 young people from Russia and 100 countries, including 620 international participants.
