Rector R.K. Nizamov: “Being a student is very cool! Congratulations, dear friends!

January 25 is the Day of Russian Students. Historically, it so happened that on that same day, back in 1755 on January 25, the Russian Empress Elizaveta signed a decree "On the Establishment of Moscow University", and January 25 became the official university day (at that time it was called "the day of foundation of the Moscow University). In Russia, back in the last century, Student's Day became a cheerful and noisy holiday for the student community.

Rector Prof. Rashit Nizamov: "I congratulate all students, teachers and staff of our University on this joyful and eternally young holiday - the Day of Russian Students!

The Day of Russian Students is celebrated in Russia annually on January 25 in accordance with the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of January 25, 2005, and in 2007, according to federal law, it was included in the list of memorable dates in Russia. But the holiday has been leading its history and traditions since the 18th century.

Being a student means youth of soul and body, activity, optimism, thirst for knowledge, search for discoveries and, of course, new friends, unforgettable impressions for life! Being a student is great!

I wish all the KSUAE students good health, prosperity, love and happiness! And for today's students - confidence in the successful exam session, the favor of teachers, the achievement of goals!

Happy Russian Student Day! Congratulations, dear friends!"

January 21st - Postgraduate Student's Day. Congratulations to the future scientists of KSUAE!

On January 21, Russia celebrates Postgraduate Student's Day. In our country, this day is associated with the historical event of 1925, when the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR regulated the system for training scientists. This holiday was established in 2008. In the scientific community, this date is becoming more widespread, gaining popularity both among graduate students and among university professors and research institutes.

Postgraduate studies are aimed at training highly qualified personnel and are the first step towards becoming a future scientist. Just the postgraduate school is a base for scientific knowledge where you can acquire the special way of research thinking and research activities.

In KSUAE, the training of highly qualified personnel was carried out from the first days of its foundation. For the first time in the Kazan Institute of Engineers for Municipal Construction in 1931, admission to the postgraduate school was carried out in the following specialties: "Engineering structures", "Building mechanics", "Architecture", "Building materials", "Bridges".

Nowadays our University offers 14 Postgraduate courses (23 profiles):

01.06.01 Mathematics and mechanics;

03.06.01 Physics and astronomy;

04.06.01 Chemical sciences;

07.06.01 Architecture;

08.06.01 Engineering and technology of construction;

09.06.01 Informatics and computer technology;

13.06.01 Electrical and heat engineering;

18.06.01 Chemical technologies;

06.38.01 Economics;

39.06.01 Sociological sciences;

44.06.01 Education and pedagogical sciences;

46.06.01 Historical sciences and archeology;

47.06.01 Philosophy, ethics and religious studies;

50.06.01 Art history.

Today, there are 161 postgraduate students at KSUAE. Scientific guidance of such students is carried out by doctors of sciences, leading scientists and teachers of the University. 

Every year, the Scientific and Technical Council conducts attestation, listening to the reports of graduate students in order to provide information, advisory and practical assistance to novice scientists.

The Dissertation council has been working at the University for many years to submit dissertations for the degree of candidate of science, for the degree of doctor of science in "Building structures, constructions and facilities" and "Construction materials and products".

In 2021 our postgraduate students became winners of such competitions as the Competition of research and scientific-practical works for the scholarships of the Mayor of Kazan; the Republican competition "Fifty best innovative ideas for the Republic of Tatarstan"; the Second Republican competition "Engineer of the Year" 2021.

We invite graduates of the MSc courses who are interested in science, who strive with their scientific developments and even discoveries to improve the lives of people, who are not indifferent to the further development of our society and state, to our postgraduate courses!

Congratulations to all postgraduate students! We wish you success, new achievements, sense of purpose and the desire to move forward on a difficult but very interesting path of scientific discoveries!

On January 19, 2022, a regular meeting of the consortium of the international project "Capacity Building in Sustainablity for Architectural Heritage" (SAH) was held as part of the Erasmus + program. The project started in January 2021, and due to the current situation with the Covid-19, such meetings are still held online.

We remind you that the goal of the project is the following: based on the European experience gained during the project, the partner countries develop new academic disciplines and modules in the field of sustainable development of the architectural heritage; develop teaching aids for new disciplines; acquire the necessary equipment for research and create international network centers for heritage.

The meeting was attended by representatives of the University of L'Aquila, Italy (project coordinator), Germany, Greece, Armenia, Iran (Tehran and Tabriz) and Russia (Kazan, Moscow, Samara, Arkhangelsk).

During the meeting, the project participants, led by the chief coordinator, the University of L'Aquila, discussed the current status of the implementation of tasks for all work packages (there are 5 in total). KSUAE is a regional coordinator for communication with universities in Russia, Armenia and Iran and it is responsible for the second work package (WP2) of the project “Development: Institutionalization and approbation of BSc amd MSc in Russia, Armenia and Iran”, together with the National Technical University of Athens (Greece).

In addition, the participants considered the quality of the project, the development of new modules for master's programs in the restoration and preservation of architectural heritage based on the analysis and monitoring of professional competencies previously carried out within the framework of the project, the possibility of holding thematic trainings from European partners in the next six months, got acquainted with the current project website, and also discussed the purchase of equipment for all partners and the timing of the preparation of the necessary reporting documentation.
