On December 19, at the State University of Management, Vladimir Stroyev, Rector of the State University of Management, met with Alexander Vaino, Director of the Young Professionals Department at the Agency for Strategic Initiatives for the Promotion of New Projects (ASI).

The guest outlined the key tasks facing the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, which are being addressed jointly with government agencies and business representatives.

"The development of technology leaders is on the agenda today. Furthermore, a university model is needed that can demonstrate the effectiveness of developing such leaders."

Vladimir Stroyev noted that GUU, historically an engineering and economics university, actively develops scientific research and the training of engineers and economists.

"In terms of implementing technological projects, we have a wide range of capabilities. We have developed a well-established model for collaboration between departments engaged in technological and design work, united into a unified engineering and design technology infrastructure at the university. Today, this includes the Student Design Bureau, the RosGeoTech Industrial Innovation Lab, created jointly with the Millionshchikov State Petroleum Technological University, and the Numerical Control Systems Lab, established thanks to a grant from the Ministry of Education and Science," the rector said.

Continuing the conversation, Alexander Vaino noted that developing entrepreneurial skills, including among the younger generation, is equally important, and that thematic shifts at children's centers could facilitate this.

Vladimir Stroev was pleased to tell the guest about the project-based learning implemented at the State University of Management (GUU) starting in the first year, and the entrepreneurship sessions the university runs at the country's largest children's centers: Artek, Okean, Smena, and Orlyonok.

"SUU is a recognized leader in implementing project-based learning in higher education. We were the first to integrate it into the educational process, and today, our university hosts the Interregional Educational and Methodological Center for Project-Based Learning, which integrates new practices and technologies in this area. We have significant experience developing entrepreneurial competencies, starting in school: we conduct entrepreneurship sessions at four of the country's largest children's centers, have been mentoring entrepreneurship classes for several years, and have prepared a thematic Olympiad, "The Future of Business," for the Russian Higher School of Economics, among other things," the rector summarized.

During the discussion, considerable attention was paid to the need to develop specialist training in new transport mobility and urban development modeling. Vladimir Stroyev noted that the State University of Management also has advances in developing predictive models that allow for a more accurate selection of the most appropriate solution in a given situation. These models are applicable to both global and urban challenges, as well as for personal use.

Following the meeting, Alexander Vaino was given a tour of the university campus, including a visit to the Pre-University, modern laboratories, and the media center.

At the end of the meeting, the participants exchanged pre-New Year gifts and agreed to discuss further cooperation in a working manner.

On December 19, representatives of the rector's office and institute directorates, as well as concerned employees, gathered in the lobby of the State University of Management's Main Building to participate in the All-Russian "Wish Tree" campaign, which our university is partnering with for the first time.

Anna Khaustova, Program Director of the Boiling Point at the State University of Management, spoke to those present about the project's goals, history, and social significance:

"The campaign has been running for seven years now, and during this time, more than 320,000 wishes have been granted to children in difficult life situations. Traditionally, Russian President Vladimir Putin also participates in the campaign."

Vladimir Stroyev, rector of the State University of Management, was the first to take a ball from the Christmas tree with a child's cherished wish. He didn't stop at just one wisher, choosing three cards with New Year's wishes.

"On New Year's, all wishes should come true, and if we have the opportunity to give someone a fairy tale, we should do so. It would be the right thing to do. All the wishes are worthy and useful: a snow scooter for 4-year-old Yegor, a bicycle for 5-year-old Polina, and a wall bars for 10-year-old Timur. I hope the children will be delighted with them and believe in fairy tales," noted Vladimir Stroyev.

Next, the vice-rectors, directors of institutes, and employees of the State University of Management took the balloons with messages.

The wishes were varied: athletic shoes, a children's kitchen, an artificial Christmas tree, a sunroof, a night light, and so on. Surprise gifts were particularly popular with gift-givers. These can be found on the young gift-givers' page by searching for information about the children themselves, their interests, and examples of what would make them happy.

As a reminder, the All-Russian "Yolka Zhelaniy" (Christmas Tree of Wishes) campaign has been running since 2018 in both online and offline formats. It was initiated by the "Movement of the First" with the support of Rosmolodezh.Dobro. Every year, over a thousand people bring joy and magic to children in difficult life situations. You can join the campaign until February 2026 at yolkazhelaniy.rf.

A grand opening ceremony for the renovated State Circus building was held in Volgograd. Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin announced the opening.

“Today, on the eve of the holidays, a significant event took place – the opening after a full-scale reconstruction of the Volgograd Circus. This is part of our systematic work to update cultural sites throughout Russia. The circus has not been reconstructed for more than 50 years, since its opening in 1967. The work started in January 2023 and was completed on time. The area of ​​the building increased to 10 thousand square meters. m. New sound, lighting and multimedia equipment have been installed for more colorful performances. All engineering systems in the hall have been completely replaced. I am sure that the updated circus will become not only a popular place for young Volgograd residents and their parents, but also a point of attraction for tourists from all over Russia. Today the first performance will take place in the renewed circus. It is gratifying that the participants in the special military operation, their children and relatives will be the first to see it. I express my sincere gratitude to everyone who took part in the organization and implementation of this project. The successful result was made possible thanks to the effective work of the Ministry of Culture and the personal attention of Minister Olga Borisovna Lyubimova, as well as coordinated interaction with colleagues from the regional government. Special thanks to Governor Andrei Ivanovich Bocharov for his constant attention to the project and persistence in resolving the issue of financing, which made it possible to complete the work on time. A key role in the execution of the work was played by the company “Unified Customer”, a leading operator in the field of government contracts in construction. I would also like to thank the contractors, builders, all the specialists involved and, of course, the circus team,” said Marat Khusnullin.

Thanks to the renovation, the circus building now has more space for animals, creating modern, safe, and comfortable conditions for them. To achieve this, a new building, covering approximately 3,000 square meters, was added to the central portion of the building.

"In the Volgograd Region, with the support of the President of the Russian Federation, the Russian Government, and the Ministry of Culture, extensive work is underway to create modern cultural facilities. Most recently, the modern Young Spectator's Theater in Volgograd opened its doors to residents and visitors of the Volgograd Region. At the direction of the President of Russia, work continues to establish the Ilya Ivanovich Mashkov Museum of Fine Arts on the premises of the world-famous Central Department Store, as well as a cultural and educational center named after our world-famous and beloved compatriot, Alexandra Nikolaevna Pakhmutova. Today marks a very important day for the Volgograd Region's cultural sector – the large-scale renovation of another cultural facility beloved by many generations of Volgograd residents and our guests – the Volgograd Circus – has been completed. Thank you to the President of our country, the Russian Government, and to you personally, esteemed Marat Shakirzyanovich, for your support of the Volgograd Region and your active participation in the implementation of development projects," said Volgograd Region Governor Andrei Bocharov.

Currently, Unified Customer is engaged in the reconstruction of four more Rosgoscirk branches – in Tver, Yekaterinburg, Voronezh, and Irkutsk.

"Over the three years of reconstruction, the builders have accomplished a significant amount of work, so that today the first audiences can enjoy the updated interior and the vibrant circus acts. The building's interior has been given a new look, and the auditorium now boasts modern sound and lighting equipment, making the performances even more vibrant and expanding the creative possibilities for directors. Over 500 specialists worked on the construction site throughout this extensive modernization," said Karen Oganesyan, General Director of the Unified Customer Production Company.

According to Sergei Belyakov, General Director of Rosgoscirk, the opening of the company's Volgograd branch will go down in the city's history as a symbol of the unity of artists and audiences who gather to share moments of delight and wonder at future performances: "The renovated Volgograd Circus will become a true jewel of the city's cultural life, a place where generations meet, where new stars are born, and an atmosphere of joy, inspiration, and creativity reigns. It will feature state-of-the-art equipment, comfortable conditions, and programs long awaited in Volgograd. We hope the circus will become the pride of the hero city and will continue to delight audiences for many years to come. Many exciting premieres, exciting projects, and encounters with talented artists from around the world lie ahead."

Furthermore, security was a key focus during the circus's renovation. The building's entrances are now equipped with all modern security screening systems. Fire alarm, notification, and smoke removal systems, a fire water supply system, and a fire suppression pumping station have been installed.

Yuri Trutnev: The President's order to form the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor must be fulfilled.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – Government of the Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Deputy Prime Minister and Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District Yuri Trutnev held a meeting on the development of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor.

“Following the results of the International Arctic Forum in March 2025, Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin instructed the Government to develop and approve a financial, economic and organizational model for the formation of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor. A key section of the transport corridor is the Northern Sea Route. We have talked many times about how the Northern Sea Route can and should become the most important transport artery from Europe to Asia. Much work has been done to develop the Northern Sea Route. The volume of transit traffic increased from 2.1 million to 3.2 million tons, and the total volume of traffic in 2024 increased to almost 38 million tons. At the same time, the range of our cargo and, in fact, the points from which we send them are quite localized. This is LNG from the Novatek company, oil and oil products from the companies Gazprom Neft, Lukoil and NK Rosneft, cargo from the Norilsk Nickel company. In fact, the Northern Sea Route is not used for transporting goods located on the continental part of our country. To lift cargo to the Northern Sea Route, it is necessary to build railways, dredging, and most importantly, to understand the economy, determine the cargo base: what we can transport and what benefits these transportation will provide to the economy of our country. This work began in a number of regions. For example, the project “Ural Industrial – Ural Polar” was calculated. But this was quite a long time ago. In order to return to these tasks, the calculations need to be updated. This work must be continued. Another necessity, why we must do this, is that the Eastern range will not provide transportation of the required amount of cargo. To determine further directions and volumes of work along the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor, today we will talk about the work that should be carried out by Russian Railways, Rosatom, the Federal Agency for Water Resources and the constituent entities of the Russian Federation located in the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor zone. and let’s try to figure out what we must do to fulfill the order of the President of the Russian Federation. The work is very big, but it will help us “sew together” the entire territory of Russia, create new conditions for its economic development,” Yuri Trutnev opened the meeting.

Following the International Arctic Forum, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the updating of the Fundamentals and Strategy for the Development of the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation. The draft decree is currently being revised based on proposals from the Presidential Executive Office.

"The Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor and its key component, the Northern Sea Route, are a natural transport artery for the transportation of Arctic raw materials and manufactured goods. The formation and development of the transport corridor is interlinked with the achievement of national interests in the Arctic and includes the development of mineral resource centers, technological and industrial advancement, national security, and ensuring a high quality of life and well-being for the population," noted Alexey Chekunkov, Minister for the Development of the Russian Far East and Arctic.

The resource supply of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor's cargo base was discussed. Minerals and their derivatives are the foundation for the development of the Northern Sea Route and the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor. Over the past 10 years (2014–2024), cargo traffic along the NSR increased from 4 million to almost 38 million tons. This year, it has already exceeded 35 million tons. Hydrocarbons, including LNG and gas condensate, oil, and petroleum products, account for 86% of the cargo transported. The combined share of iron ore concentrate, coal, and other bulk cargo does not exceed 3%. General and containerized cargo accounts for another 11%.

It was proposed to intensify geological exploration efforts, given the timeframe for field preparation. Also discussed was the creation of conditions for the development of deep processing, so that cargo transported along the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor would have greater added value.

It was proposed to include measures for the development of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor as a separate section within the unified plan for the implementation of the Strategy for the Development of the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation, taking as a basis the updated measures implemented within the framework of the Northern Sea Route plan.

The agenda included issues related to the development of shipping and railways to support freight transportation along the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor. According to Transport Minister Andrey Nikitin, the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor will be supported, among other things, through Russian seaports located west and east of the Northern Sea Route. The main ports of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor outside the Northern Sea Route are the Big Port of St. Petersburg, Ust-Luga, Kaliningrad, Murmansk, Arkhangelsk, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Nakhodka, Vostochny, and Vladivostok. As part of the federal project "Development of the Backbone Network of Seaports" within the national project "Efficient Transport System," measures are planned to increase capacity by 2030: by 19.4 million tons at the seaport of Murmansk and by 17.8 million tons at the seaport of Vladivostok by 2030.

Rosatom, with the participation of federal executive bodies, including the Russian Ministry of Transport, is working within an interdepartmental working group to develop the range and volumes of cargo that could form the cargo base of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor. Only after the cargo base is established and the corresponding cargo flows are identified will the Russian Ministry of Transport be able to prepare proposals, if necessary, for adjusting the federal project "Development of the Seaport Core Network" to create the necessary capacity at seaports.

A key element in the development of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor is the availability of a fleet capable of navigating Arctic waters. The demand for the number and types of vessels will depend on the projected cargo traffic along the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor. To ensure reliable cargo transportation along the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor, it is crucial to establish long-term vessel charter contracts tailored to specific cargo flows. Long-term time charter contracts will allow shipowners not only to attract vessels from the market over the long term but also to plan for vessel construction, including at Russian shipyards. Defining the cargo base for the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor will also enable the development of long-term plans for the infrastructure leading to the seaports of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor, including roads and railways.

"Each ministry and agency must address issues within their area of competence. These competencies are divided by decisions of the President of the Russian Federation and the Russian Government. I also ask all governors present to prepare proposals for the development of the subarctic zone. A separate issue concerns attracting investors. A significant amount of work falls to the Ministry of Natural Resources: they need to review subsoil development and geological exploration. The Ministry of Industry and Trade must consider the depth of mineral processing. There is no way to continue focusing solely on raw materials development. The Ministry of Transport is the organization that provides logistics for the entire country. I believe the next point of our discussion will be the strategic session that the Prime Minister will hold in June. This is the event at which we have the full right and responsibility to present proposals for the development of the Transarctic Transport Corridor. The Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East, the Ministry of Economic Development, and representatives of the scientific community must participate in this work. We need to calculate what we can transport, which goods will benefit the country's economy, and calculate the return on investment. "The work of developing the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor is extensive, it is significant for our country, and it requires us to go beyond the existing framework and look to the future, and we must accomplish it," Yuri Trutnev concluded the meeting.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The university announced the results of its main volunteer competition, "RUDN Volunteer of the Year." Seventeen people won in five categories. The Grand Prix went to Elza Shaimukhametova, a student majoring in Veterinary Science at the Agrarian and Technological Institute.

"For me, being a volunteer means dedicating myself entirely to a cause, to people, and to being useful. The reward is the motivation to work harder and longer, and, of course, it's a sign that my work is bearing fruit, that it's not just for nothing," noted Elsa Shaimukhametova.

Desire to help

We'll tell you more about Elsa and her accomplishments in a separate article. The RUDN University volunteer movement currently comprises over 3,000 people from 50 countries. They visit orphanages, help organize major international events, participate in patriotic campaigns, donate blood, and care for the environment and homeless animals.

A total of 50 applications were submitted for the competition, with the leading participants coming from the Faculty of Philology, the Institute of Medicine, and the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. Incidentally, students from the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities represented the largest number of RUDN University volunteers, for which the department received an award in the competition among the main educational departments (OUP). The Faculty of Artificial Intelligence also received an award in this category. Although the faculty was founded only a few years ago, its students have already participated in numerous volunteer events and distinguished themselves.

The winners in the "Event Volunteer" category were:

Adelina Abdulkarimova (Faculty of Philology, 3rd year, Journalism); Polina Shmidt (Faculty of Physics, Mathematics and Natural Sciences, 2nd year, Chemistry); Ainur Sadykova (Institute of Foreign Languages, 1st year Master's student, Psychological and Pedagogical Education); Ksenia Verbitskaya (Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, 3rd year, Foreign Regional Studies); Alexandra Kozhevnikova (Faculty of Philology, 1st year, Psychology).

"For me, volunteering is an activity that gives my life meaning; it's the people I've helped. My openness and strong desire to help others help me. The most rewarding part of volunteering for me is the people's emotions. People often cried when we parted ways, which is a sign that I've done my job well," says Ksenia Verbitskaya.

The title of the best "Ecological Volunteers" was earned by:

Victoria Lotnik (Institute of Ecology, 2nd year student, Ecology and Nature Management); Ekaterina Aleksandrova (Assistant Professor, Department of Psychology and Pedagogy, Faculty of Philology, RUDN University).

"I was raised in an eco-friendly lifestyle from childhood. I participated in many environmental campaigns and events, which is why I enrolled in the RUDN University Institute of Ecology. If I had to describe volunteering in one word, it would be kindness," noted Victoria Lotnik.

Opportunity to prove yourself

In the “Social Volunteer” category, the victory went to:

Elza Shaimukhametova (Agrarian-Technological Institute, 2nd year, "Veterinary Science"); Gulchehrabuna Khaitova (Faculty of Philology, 2nd year, "Psychology"); Yana Basel Alshebli (Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, 2nd year Master's student, "International Relations"); Alena Konovalova (Faculty of Philology, 2nd year, "Journalism"); Valeria Popova (Medical Institute, 2nd year, "Dentistry").

"Volunteering is a unique opportunity to express yourself, realize your desire to help people, and develop social skills. It's also an opportunity to connect with people from all over the world and participate in events, including international ones. For example, I recently volunteered at the major forum "MYVMESTE" and helped foreign participants navigate the "Russia" national center," said Valeria Popova.

The best "Volunteer Medics" were:

Anastasia Bogoyavlenskaya (Medical Institute, 6th year, General Medicine); Nadezhda Bryksina (Faculty of Philology, 3rd year Master's student, Psychology); Yulia Ivanova (Medical Institute, 4th year, General Medicine).

And finally, the title of the best “Patriotic Volunteers” was awarded to:

Anastasia Banakhovich (Institute of World Economy and Business, 1st year, Management); Mohamed Saleh (Medical Institute, 1st year of residency, Ophthalmology).

"It's a great honor for me to receive an award in this category. In Belgorod, where I returned three months ago, I participated in events as a Victory Day volunteer and a People's Front activist, helping collect humanitarian aid for the SVO soldiers. When they came to pick up their things and saw me, a foreigner (I'm from Egypt), they asked, 'Why are you helping here?' To which I replied that Russia, especially the Belgorod region, is my second home. And I'm grateful to the soldiers for defending the city," Mohamed Saleh shared.

About the history of the RUDN University Volunteer Center

The RUDN University Volunteer Center has been in existence for 17 years. In 2008, the student volunteer group "Wind of Change" was established within the RUDN University Center for Youth Student Teams. Its members began assisting with the socialization and adaptation of orphans by arranging their interactions with RUDN University students, motivating orphanage residents to apply to universities, fostering the development of youth creativity, creating successful youth images, and instilling tolerance and mutual respect in children.

In 2017, by order of the RUDN University rector, the "Wind of Change" volunteer group was transformed into the RUDN University Volunteer Center. The center's name, "Volunteers of the World," reflects the public organization's main goals. First, to maintain peace, help those in need, and promote volunteerism. Second, to unite all students interested in volunteering, regardless of race, nationality, gender, or language. Since 2024, the Volunteer Center has been providing verified volunteer hours, which are recorded in their electronic workbooks on the platform. DOBRO.RFThe center is developing in several areas: social, event-based, environmental, patriotic, and sports volunteering.

In addition, the center regularly implements educational programs to enhance the volunteer competencies and leadership skills of university volunteers. With the support of the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs, it organized two intensive training schools for volunteers: one on working with people with disabilities and one on social project management.

You can join the center by contacting its specialists at the address: Miklukho-Maklaya St., Building 9, Office 153, or by writing to the email address volunteer@rudn.ru.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Russian citizens aged 18 to 35 are invited to participate in the Russian Ministry of Education and Science's "Russian Civil Service Intern" project. "Russian Civil Service Intern" aims to expand the horizons of professional mobility and enhance the role of internships as a tool for early entry of young professionals into the public administration system.

The project's main goal is to provide young professionals with the opportunity to complete a paid internship at a federal agency and receive a job offer.

All project winners will complete the "Public and Municipal Administration in Science and Higher Education" program. As part of their training, interns will prepare and present a study on improving the work of a department within the ministry. This study will be included in the intern's portfolio and will be considered by the Ministry's department.

Given that a significant portion of government tasks are implemented at the intersection of science, higher education, human resources policy, and social agendas, this season will see the formation of interdisciplinary teams of interns. This format will allow interns to comprehensively develop project solutions that span the competencies of several agencies and enhance the practical value of their proposals for the public administration system.

Before being accepted for the internship, candidates must complete several online selection stages and participate in a team business game. Based on the results of all competitive processes and the participant's overall rating score, the organizers will select 30 project winners. They will complete an internship in one of 22 departments of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, and some of the winners will be assigned to a specialized track—another innovation the organizers will announce this year. Additionally, the winners will receive a stipend of 30,000 rubles per month and accommodation for the duration of their internship.
