On September 19, the State University of Management conducted the first wave of seasonal influenza vaccinations for students and staff.

A dedicated team of doctors was stationed at the GUU dormitory so that those wishing to undergo the procedure could do so in a familiar and comfortable environment.

Yulia Larina, Chief State Sanitary Doctor for the South-Eastern Administrative District of Moscow, and her deputy, Olga Shevelkina, visited our university to assess the organization of the event and the preventive measures against seasonal infections. Along with Dmitry Bryukhanov, Acting Rector of the State University of Management, and Vitaly Lapshenkov, Vice Rector of the State University of Management, the guests visited the vaccination room, where they observed the procedure. Representatives of the rector's office were the first to receive the vaccine, demonstrating by example that vaccination is nothing to be afraid of.

"Traditionally, the fall period is associated with a surge in illnesses. Our students come from different regions, and everyone is placed in a new group. Some get sick more often than others, but all of this impacts their academic performance. We care about the health of our students and offer them voluntary and free vaccinations. They don't have to travel anywhere; they can simply come down to the first floor of the dormitory," said Dmitry Bryukhanov.

Next, representatives from Rospotrebnadzor and the rector's office of the State University of Management walked around the university grounds and watched informational videos about the benefits of getting a timely flu shot, which are shown on digital screens in all academic buildings of the first administrative building.

"We come to the State University of Management every year to administer vaccinations before the seasonal surge in flu and acute respiratory viral infections. Students actively get vaccinated to successfully pass their exams and attend classes. It's important to note that the incidence rate directly depends on the number of people vaccinated. If more than 75% of a group, department, or any association is vaccinated, herd immunity is achieved, and we see fewer cases," Yulia Larina recalled.

If you missed your vaccination today, you'll have another opportunity to get vaccinated on September 26 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on the first floor of Dormitory No. 2. To participate, you'll need a passport, insurance policy, and parental permission for those under 18.

Come to protect your health.

On September 18, 2025, the State University of Management hosted an open lecture by Altynai Omurbekova, Director of the Department of Labor Migration and Social Protection of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), on the topic: "A Single Labor Space: Prospects for Migration Policy in the EAEU."

The lecture was organized at the initiative of the Department of Economic Policy and Economic Measurement. Department Head and RAS Academician Sergei Glazyev delivered a welcome message to the event's participants, delivered by his deputy, Artem Savostitsky.

In her speech, Altynai Omurbekova outlined key trends in the development of the EAEU's single labor market, emphasizing the importance of overcoming legal and social barriers, expanding mechanisms for social protection of workers, and implementing digital solutions to simplify the registration of migrants. The speaker focused on the prospects for mutual recognition of qualifications and the development of a specialist mobility system within the Union.

Master's students from the "Economics of Integration Processes in the EAEU" program actively participated in the discussion, asking questions about barriers to labor migration, the future of digital employee profiles, and opportunities for young professionals within the Union.

The role of the Eurasian Network University (ENU) as a platform for expanding academic and professional mobility was particularly emphasized. Importantly, the State University of Management heads the ENU Secretariat, enabling the university to play a key role in developing educational and scientific ties between EAEU countries.

The lecture generated considerable interest among students and faculty at the State University of Management, demonstrating the importance of collaboration between the academic community and EAEU institutions in developing solutions for the formation of a single labor market and strengthening the human resources potential of the Union's countries.

Beijing, September 19 (Xinhua) — Infrastructure improvements have been comprehensive across the board in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, according to a white paper published Friday by the State Council Information Office, titled "The CPC's Strategy for Governing Xinjiang in the New Era: Practices and Achievements."

In order to optimize the location, structure, functions and system integration of infrastructure, the region carried out overall planning for the construction of 10 networks, including railways, highways, aviation, energy, natural gas, logistics and computing, the White Paper says.

According to the document, the operational length of Xinjiang's railways as of 2024 was 9,202 km, up from 4,914 km in 2012. The region's railway network covers all prefectures and over 80 percent of counties.

The Xinjiang Autonomous Region's highway network also expanded from 165,900 km in 2012 to 230,000 km in 2024, covering all prefectures and over 90% of counties.

There are currently 595 civil aviation routes in Xinjiang, 25 of which are international and connect 17 countries and regions. A network of routes covering all of Xinjiang has now been largely established.

Furthermore, according to the document, an information highway is being developed, with the current length of fiber-optic cables amounting to 1.78 million kilometers. All cities are connected by 5G networks, and villages by broadband internet.

Beijing, September 19 (Xinhua) — Northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) has consciously integrated its regional opening-up strategy into the country's overall plan for opening up to the West. This was stated in a white paper published Friday by the State Council Information Office, titled "The CPC's Strategy for Governing Xinjiang in the New Era: Practices and Achievements."

Xinjiang aims to carve a "golden path" across the Eurasian continent and create a channel for openness to the West, the document says.

According to the White Paper, Xinjiang has successfully established broad channels for opening up to the outside world. Nineteen checkpoints have been opened, including the Khunjerab checkpoint, which is now open year-round.

In 2024, 16,400 freight trains passed through Xinjiang on international China-Europe rail routes. This means the number of such trains passing through Xinjiang annually has exceeded 10,000 for five consecutive years, according to the white paper.

The number of countries and regions that are Xinjiang's trade and economic partners has also increased significantly, from a small number in the 1950s to 196 in 2012, and rose to 211 in 2024, according to the document.

The platform for openness is constantly being improved. In October 2023, the establishment of the China Xinjiang Pilot Free Trade Zone was approved, with over 9,000 enterprises relocating there over the following year. The combined import and export volume of these companies accounted for over 30 percent of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region's total foreign trade.

Svetlana Kalmykova, head of the Open Education Center, spoke with the newspaper "Polytechnic" about the origins and success of distance learning at the Polytechnic University, and the projects that have become the Center's key focus.

This interview is both a look into the past and a conversation about the future, but most importantly, it is the story of Svetlana Vladimirovna herself.– a person for whom education has become a matter of life.
