A meeting of the headquarters dedicated to the development of educational infrastructure, including the creation of modern campuses, the construction of the Artek International Children's Center facilities, and the opening of advanced schools in the regions, was held under the chairmanship of Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko. The interim results of the projects' implementation were summed up and further steps for their effective completion were outlined.
The meeting of the headquarters was attended by representatives of the Ministry of Education and Science, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Construction, Rospotrebnadzor, as well as other interested departments and regions of Russia where the opening of new campuses and advanced schools is planned.
"On the instructions of the President, the largest program of comprehensive infrastructure development of the education sector in the last 60 years is being implemented. We need to build at least 12 advanced general education organizations in all federal districts by 2030. At least 40 world-class university campuses should be created in the country by 2036. It is already the end of July, more than half of the year has passed, it is high time to sum up the interim results," Dmitry Chernyshenko addressed the participants of the meeting.
The meeting discussed the progress of construction of modern campuses in the Novgorod, Sakhalin, Chelyabinsk, Samara, Kaliningrad and Sverdlovsk regions.
As Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education Andrey Omelchuk noted, this year two campuses will be put into operation: the Ural Federal University in Yekaterinburg and the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University in Kaliningrad.
The construction of the campus of the Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin, including three academic buildings, is in its final stage. The total area of the facilities will be 100.1 thousand square meters and will provide comfortable training for more than 8 thousand students.
The commissioning of all facilities of the modern campus of the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University is expected in June 2026. This large-scale project includes the creation of eight key facilities with a total area of 109.6 thousand square meters, which will be able to provide comfortable education and accommodation for more than 2.4 thousand students.
On the instructions of Russian President Vladimir Putin, within the framework of the national project “Youth and Children”, projects for 25 campuses have already been approved by 2030 – this is 3 million square meters of area and more than 75 thousand places for comfortable accommodation of students and teachers.
Dmitry Chernyshenko drew attention to the importance of timely completion of tasks for the construction of facilities of the International Children's Center "Artek", which is celebrating its centenary this year. He instructed to strengthen control over the dynamics of the work for their speedy completion, and also noted that next week he plans to personally inspect the facilities under construction.
The center's development program includes the construction of 33 facilities. After the introduction of the tenth camp, Solnechny, the IDC Artek will be able to accept up to 57 thousand children per year. In recent years, the center's educational space has also expanded – branches of Korsun in Sevastopol and Krasnaya Gvozdika on the coast of the Azov Sea have been created.
Head of Rospotrebnadzor Anna Popova noted the importance of active work to improve the infrastructure of Artek, which will ensure a high level of safety and comfort for children.
The head of the Ministry of Education, Sergei Kravtsov, noted that work is currently underway on the approved projects of six leading schools.
"Thanks to the federal project "Leading Schools" of the national project "Youth and Children", we are implementing a systemic approach to creating modern educational spaces. By 2027, we plan to complete the construction of advanced schools in the Novgorod, Pskov and Ryazan regions for 2.2 thousand places," emphasized Sergey Kravtsov.
In addition, in 2028, it is planned to open a school in the Krasnodar region for 600 students, and by the end of 2029, educational institutions in the Belgorod and Nizhny Novgorod regions for 1.6 thousand students.
