The third ceremony conferring the title "Ambassador of Russian Education and Science" was held at the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education. Minister Valery Falkov presented honorary badges to eleven foreign representatives, including two graduates of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. These included Liu Wei, Secretary General of the Institute of Russia at Tsinghua University (China), and Issa Togo, Honorary Consul of the Republic of Mali in St. Petersburg and Associate Professor at SPbPU.

This award recognizes their long-standing work to strengthen the international standing of Russian education and science. The ambassadors' mission is to promote Russia's educational opportunities and scientific achievements at leading international venues.

Upon receiving the prestigious title, Liu Wei shared sincere and warm memories of her years spent in Russia: "It is a great honor for me to receive the title of Ambassador of Russian Education and Science. Developing Russian-Chinese cooperation in science and education is my ongoing mission, and I have been fortunate to serve as an envoy between our countries for nearly 25 years."

Liu Wei addressed special words of gratitude to her alma mater: "My 10 years of study at St. Petersburg Polytechnic University left an indelible mark on my life and laid a solid foundation for future collaboration. Here I gained not only knowledge, but also an understanding of a rich culture, great traditions, mentality, and profound insights. And since then, Russia has become not a foreign country for me, but a second home."

The work of both new ambassadors has been making a significant contribution to strengthening international ties for decades. Liu Wei has overseen scientific and technical cooperation with Russia since 2002. She actively developed human resources by organizing innovation dialogues, training courses for oil companies, student camps, and creating infrastructure projects such as language testing and standardization centers.

In his speech, Valery Falkov noted the growing role of ambassadors in developing inter-university contacts, increasing the number of joint projects, and growing interest in studying in Russia.

Currently, more than 414,000 foreign students from 184 countries are studying at Russian universities, and by 2030, the plan is to accept up to half a million foreign students, the minister said.

Active work is underway to achieve this: modernization of infrastructure, construction of new campuses, and the introduction of grant support that covers not only tuition but also accommodation and travel.

A 1985 Polytechnic University graduate, Issa Togo rose from the leader of the Malian community in Leningrad to the architect of Mali's higher education reform, serving as a member of the expert group establishing the new Polytechnic University. Today, as Mali's Honorary Consul in St. Petersburg, he coordinates a large-scale Russian-Malian project to build a hydroelectric power station that addresses issues of energy supply, water supply, and flood protection.

SPbPU is one of the founders and most active participants in the consortium implementing the "Ambassadors of Russian Education and Science" program. The Polytechnic University is proud that the contribution of its graduates to the advancement of Russian education and science has been so highly recognized, and now four Polytechnic University graduates have this honorary title.

Dmitry Arsenyev, SPbPU Vice-Rector for International Affairs, praised the recognition of the graduates' achievements: Liu Wei and Issa Togo exemplify the deep integration of the best traditions of Russian education into the global scientific and educational space. Their long-standing, consistent work represents genuine diplomacy of trust, where each completed project becomes a building block in the edifice of mutual understanding between nations. We see them as strategic partners whose work directly contributes to strengthening the international prestige of Russian education and science. Awarding them this honorary title is a logical recognition of their role as champions of Russian educational standards and scientific achievements, whose work forms a solid foundation for future breakthrough joint projects.

Since the program's launch in 2023, 24 international experts have been awarded the title of ambassador. By 2030, the pool of ambassadors is expected to expand to 250 representatives from 60 countries, opening new opportunities for promoting Russian education and science on the global stage.

Vladislav Mikhalchenko, Head of the Strategic Development and Projects Department of the Krasnoyarsk Krai Agency for Labor and Employment, visited SPbGASU. He briefed students on the Youth Club in his region and held a working meeting with the university's leadership.

The Krasnoyarsk Krai Youth Club in St. Petersburg is a community of like-minded individuals and fellow countrymen who have come to study in the Northern Capital. Its main goal is to encourage graduates of St. Petersburg universities to return to the region. This is achieved through quizzes, business games, and other activities, meetings with successful individuals and employers, career counseling, company roadshows, and internships. Project partners include the Government of Krasnoyarsk Krai, the Government of St. Petersburg, the Yenisei Siberia Development Corporation, Norilsk Nickel, Rosneft, and others.

Vladislav Mikhalchenko reported that approximately 3,200 students from the Krasnoyarsk Krai are studying in St. Petersburg. This is a valuable resource for employers and the rapidly developing region. The club currently has 187 members. The organizers plan to increase the number of participants and identify leaders among them who will collaborate with partners and develop additional events. These leaders will be able to participate in organizing the 2026 World Youth Festival in Krasnoyarsk.

Students learned about the benefits of living and working in the Krasnoyarsk Krai and were invited to a club chat. The focus there is on careers: job openings are posted and individual coaching is provided. Vladislav Mikhalchenko recommended meeting with employers as early as possible and arranging an internship a year in advance.

At the end of the meeting, the speaker answered questions and held a quiz. The quiz winner, fourth-year construction student Dmitry Kuznetsov, intends to join the club. "I'm from Krasnoyarsk. If Krasnoyarsk Krai is competitive, why not?" he said, reflecting on his return to his homeland.

Yulia Yunakova, a second-year construction student, is also from Krasnoyarsk. She was interested in internships. "I'd be happy to try my hand at this profession in my hometown," she said.

During a working meeting with Vice-Rector for Youth Policy Marina Malyutina, Vice-Rector for Continuing Education Victoria Vinogradova, and the heads of departments involved in student professional development, Vladislav Mikhalchenko discussed the concept and work plan of the St. Petersburg Youth Club. The parties outlined further steps for developing cooperation that will help future young professionals fully realize their career potential.

How to increase the birth rate in the country: Scientists from the State University of Management have proposed new approaches.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The State University of Management has identified what prevents young people from having children and developed a tool that will help the government more accurately assess the effectiveness of demographic policy measures. The results and recommendations will be submitted to the State Duma.

The study was conducted by a research team from the State University of Management's Research Institute of Public Policy and Industrial Economic Management, led by Oleg Sudorgin, the institute's director. The project combined quantitative and qualitative methods: surveys, interviews, and expert opinion analysis.

High school students: comfort and mutual understanding

A survey of 11th-grade graduates revealed that Generation Z has an ambivalent attitude toward marriage. On the one hand, they value formal status—registration, responsibility, and stability. On the other hand, trust, emotional connection, and freedom of choice are crucial.

Young Muscovites value traditional family values but are unwilling to sacrifice personal comfort for formalities. This generation perceives family as a conscious union, where mutual understanding is more important than social expectations.

Students: A Strong Foundation for Life

Among students aged 18 to 22 at Moscow universities, the main barriers to having children are financial instability, homelessness, and self-doubt. Young people fear they won't be able to cope with the roles of parent, maintaining a family, and providing a decent standard of living. As a result, they don't abandon the idea of getting married to raise their children, but they postpone this step, seeking to first establish a solid financial and emotional foundation.

Today, for many, having a child isn't the beginning of adulthood, but its culmination, a confirmation of stability and maturity. This is consistent with a nationwide trend: later parenthood, declining birth rates, and rising quality-of-life expectations for starting a family.

Experts: Transforming the Institution of the Family

Interviews with experts show that a new cultural model of family is emerging—one that emphasizes personal choice, emotional comfort, and mutual compatibility between partners.

Generation Z is characterized by several fundamental fundamental attitudes: individualized life strategies, delayed socialization, and hybrid values. In other words, starting a family is moving from an obligation to a choice. At the same time, marriage and childbearing are shifting to a later age, and the desire for love and care is combined with pragmatic calculations and digital habits.

Research: Program and Practice

A team from the State University of Management has developed software for assessing the effectiveness of demographic policy measures. The algorithm automatically calculates weighting coefficients and shows which measures actually impact fertility and which require revision.

Based on this data, a socio-demographic passport for the region is created—a tool that allows for tracking birth rate dynamics, assessing risks, and predicting the development of the situation, as they say, "on the ground."

This approach will make it possible to formulate demographic policy more accurately, taking into account not only economic but also sociocultural and psychological factors.

Based on their findings, our scientists have prepared a package of recommendations for government agencies. The goal is to improve the effectiveness of family support and birth rate promotion measures, focusing on the real needs and values of today's young people.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The Garnet team from the State University of Management emerged as the best among the strongest student case clubs in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

On the first Saturday of October, more than 60 representatives of university case communities from the two capitals gathered at the FCC to exchange experiences, hone their skills, and compete in solving business problems.

The main challenge was a mini-case study from Axenix, a partner company: they had to develop a plan to increase the profitability of an IT company in 70 minutes. The GUU team performed brilliantly and topped the list of leaders thanks to their creative strategy and coordinated work.

"The forum became not only a competition platform but also an important networking event. We connected with like-minded individuals from Moscow State University, ITMO University, Russian State University of Oil and Gas, Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, and other universities. This helped us see different approaches to solving business problems. We hope the forum will become a good tradition," noted Yegor Zhogolev, a fourth-year student at the Institute of Economics and Finance and head of the SUM team.

Our winners received certificates and valuable gifts, but most importantly, new experience and confidence in their abilities.

Congratulations to the guys at Garnet! We wish them new interesting cases and, of course, new victories!

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

In the new building of the NSU flow auditoriums, which is part of the second stage of the project modern campus of NSU, which is being built as part of the national project "Youth and Children" and opened in August 2025, has completed the navigation work. The basic elements—signs—have been complemented by vibrant illustrations, decorative elements, and inscriptions.

The interior of the lecture hall building was inspired by the Bauhaus style, the identity of the university and Akademgorodok. The navigation, in turn, became a natural extension of the interior.

The Bauhaus style is characterized by a combination of functionalism and aesthetics, focusing on practicality, simplicity, and cost-effectiveness. Its hallmarks include clear geometric shapes, a lack of unnecessary decoration, large windows, and an emphasis on functionality and ergonomics. Bauhaus rejects pretentiousness, believing that every detail should serve a specific purpose and be comfortable, accessible, and beautiful at the same time.

"We were tasked with creating a fun, modern wayfinding system—one that's playful, welcoming, and inspiring. After all, students come here not only to study but also to socialize, and today, to create something new and be creative. We needed a suitable background; every element was essential. It not only plays with us, but also gives us a sense of 'where we are.' Each floor has its own color, which helps us navigate better. Simple shapes—lines and circles—are memorable," commented Margarita Moreva, the designer of the wayfinding concept.

The new building has four classrooms, each marked with a decorative element—the letter N with the star from the university logo. An illustration of simple geometric shapes, colored to match the university's signature colors, adorns the entrance to the cafeteria area. Metal signposts conveniently display information about the building's main rooms. Window decals are a pleasant green color scheme. The signage is available in Russian and two foreign languages—English and Chinese—to meet the requirements of modern campuses.

Inspirational quotes from renowned world thinkers and writers have appeared on the walls of the NSU Scientific Library, located on the first floor.

So many profound and wise sayings about books, culture, and scientific knowledge have survived to this day—the words of writers, scientists, and public figures. Choosing just a few quotes was no easy task. We selected the most insightful and heartfelt statements and asked our staff to vote.

We wanted the quotes to remind readers of the value of books as a source of knowledge, thought, and emotion; to inspire them to engage in scientific and creative research; to remind them of how many talented and inspired people, just like them now, labored in their time, their heads bowed over books at their desks, making discoveries, writing books, and laying the foundation for our present. We hope these words will become a source of inspiration, a gateway to a profound understanding of the value of books, the importance of culture, and the continuity of scientific knowledge," noted Evgenia Vaganova, Head of the Fiction Department. Scientific Library of NSU.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The 12th OpenBio Biotechnology Forum, held in late September, brought together 992 in-person and 4,411 online participants from 13 countries in the science city of Koltsovo. Representatives from businesses, scientific institutes, and research centers met at the forum to discuss the development of biotechnology, biopharmaceuticals, and related fields.

One of the participants was Sergey Dementyev, a second-year master's student at the NSU Physics Department. Sergey presented an oral presentation, "Functional Properties of Spin Trapping Agents for Enhanced Detection of Singlet Oxygen in Photodynamic Therapy Applications," in the biophysics section and won first place among young scientists under 35. As a prize, he received a certificate for training in "Machine Learning in Biology and Bioinformatics."

"I'm interested in the forum as a platform for science and business to build practical partnerships. I'm particularly interested in collaborating with pharmaceutical companies on joint drug testing projects," Sergey said.

The research presented by Sergey was conducted in collaboration with the Laboratory of Nitrogen Compounds at the Novosibirsk Institute of Organic Chemistry, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The work focuses on the discovery and study of new spin traps—compounds that enable more accurate detection of singlet oxygen in biological systems.

"Our proposed trap demonstrated the best performance and proved to be the most promising for these applications. This result is important for studying the in vivo antitumor properties of photosensitizers used in photodynamic cancer therapy," explains Sergey.

Photodynamic therapy is a non-invasive cancer treatment method already widely used in clinical practice. The search for new photosensitizers is a key step in improving its effectiveness.

“The compound we proposed makes it possible, for the first time, to conduct more in-depth studies of these drugs under physiological conditions—both in vitro and in vivo—compared to the standard testing procedure on mice,” the researcher notes.

Work on the project was carried out in the Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Laboratory of the International Tomography Center of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences under the supervision of Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Olesya Anatolyevna Krumkacheva.

"The most challenging and, at the same time, interesting part was mastering and combining several experimental techniques necessary for the project's implementation. In the future, we plan to use the developed traps to study new promising photosensitizers synthesized by our colleagues," added Sergey.

NSU chemistry students received awards at the 35th Mendeleev Competition

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Novosibirsk State University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

From October 6 to 10, the Mendeleev School and Conference for Young Scientists was held in Moscow. It included a competition for chemistry students, organized by the Russian Academy of Sciences, the D.I. Mendeleev Russian Chemical Society, Lomonosov Moscow State University, MIREA – Russian Technological University, and D.I. Mendeleev Russian Chemical Technical University. The competition included approximately 300 projects prepared by students from chemistry universities and departments located in 28 Russian cities. This year, strong work was presented, and the jury decided to increase the number of laureates from 10 to 13, including students from the Faculty of Natural Sciences at NSU.

The winners in the Chemistry category were:

1st place: Nikita Chernovsky, 3rd year student.

2nd place: Mikhail Sibiryakov, 1st year master's student.

In the Chemical Technology category:

III degree: Daria Selezneva, 4th year student of the specialist program.

The competition included two rounds: in the first, an in-person round, the jury evaluated the submitted works and selected the best. The second round of the competition consisted of two stages. All second-round participants participated in a poster session, after which a third of the works were selected for oral presentations. The winners were selected based on the results of the oral presentations.

Nikita Chernovsky had known about the Mendeleev Competition since school; his supervisor, Pavel Anatolyevich Zaikin, suggested he participate. At the conference, Nikita presented his work, "Photochemical Fluorination of CH Bonds in Aromatic Carbonyl Compounds Without the Addition of Catalysts."

"We have developed a general synthetic approach to the photochemical CH fluorination of aromatic carbonyl compounds without the addition of catalysts. We also conducted a detailed study of the transformation mechanism. The essence of the reactions is that the aromatic carbonyl moiety in the substrate, upon photoexcitation, initiates a radical reaction that fluorinates the CH bonds of the substrate," Nikita Chernovsky explained about his research.

Conference participants had a unique opportunity to listen to presentations from world-class scientists, learn about the most promising areas of chemistry, and meet and interact with representatives of the chemical industry.

"The Mendeleev Competition is the largest competition for chemistry students. I saw this competition as an opportunity to discuss my research, share experiences, and meet leading experts and students from a wide range of fields in organic chemistry and chemistry in general. My impressions were entirely positive. I appreciated the open, informal interaction with the jury and organizers. They truly delve into the work and actively participate in the discussions, put forward suggestions, and offer advice. I also enjoyed interacting with other participants, including our friendly team from NSU," Nikita Chernovsky shared.

We congratulate the students on their victory and wish them continued success in their studies and research!

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

From October 10th to 12th, the 2nd Chinese-Russian Summer School on Construction was held in Guangzhou, China. The school focused on the design and construction of buildings and structures for harsh climates.

This event is becoming a tradition: in September 2024, the first congress under the Russia-China Cooperation Agreement was held in Vladivostok. Construction industry experts from China and Russia, as well as representatives from the construction industry and academia, met to strengthen ties and exchange experiences.

This year, thanks to the efforts of the National Association of Builders of Russia and the Chinese Society of Civil Engineering, it was possible to assemble an impressive delegation consisting of leaders and scientists from leading construction universities in both countries, as well as representatives of China's largest construction companies.

SPbGASU was represented by Alexander Samodolov, Deputy Dean for Educational Work of the Faculty of Environmental Engineering and Urban Management.

The school included a conference on the design and construction of buildings and structures for harsh climates. Visits to major construction sites and universities in Guangzhou were also organized.

Alexander Samodolov presented a report on SPbGASU's work in the school's area of expertise and promising development areas. At a roundtable discussion held at Sun Yat-sen University, Alexander Pavlovich discussed our university, its student body, faculty, and programs of study, noting in particular that the university is the oldest civil engineering university in the country with a rich tradition.

"Participating in the China-Russia Summer School on Construction was an honor for me. Leading scientists from Russian and Chinese construction universities demonstrated their scientific achievements in urban development, tunnel construction, and underground engineering, which has a positive impact on the development of the construction industry and the strengthening of friendly relations between China and Russia. For our country, the Arctic development project is a key, and perhaps the most important, challenge, and our Chinese colleagues, in their presentations and discussions, expressed their interest in jointly implementing this project," said Alexander Samodolov.

The next Chinese-Russian School of Construction will be held in Russia next year.
