USUE Vice-Rector for Social Work and Youth Policy, Roman Krasnov, paid a working visit to the International University of Tourism and Entrepreneurship of Tajikistan (IUTET) to discuss cooperation and the opening of a Russian Language Center at IUTET.

The meeting was attended by Deputy Rector for Educational Affairs, Mirzokhid Rakhimov, Deputy Rector for International Relations, Fathullo Ibrokhimzoda, and Deputy Rector for Strategic Development and Quality Management, Farhod Sharapov.
The delegations discussed scientific cooperation, exchange programs, and, most importantly, the opening of the Russian Language Center at the International University of Tourism and Entrepreneurship of Tajikistan. It is scheduled for November. The Center will be in a new eight-story building at the university campus, giving the students of this university an opportunity to study at this Center. One expects to offer short-term and long-term programs from a month to a year.
“Dozens of students from Tajikistan study at USUE. The interest in the Russian language and culture deepens. Thanks to the opening of the Center, students will learn the Russian language and get acquainted with the history of Russia not leaving their country. This will contribute to the development of cooperation both between universities and our countries,” Roman Krasnov, USUE Vice-Rector for Social Work and Youth Policy, said.
Upon completion of the course, students will receive a certificate that will give them the right to enter any higher educational institution in Russia.
