🇲🇦 Continued. RAFU Days in Morocco At Hassan II University, the Russian delegation met with the leadership to discuss joint programs (Bachelor’s, Master’s, PhD, academic mobility). Then followed presentations of Master’s programs for Moroccan students. The interest is huge — many questions from future applicants. 🇷🇺 The open Russian language lesson at the Polytech-Global Center was attended by Dmitry Mezhaurov, Consul General of the Russian Federation in Casablanca. He noted: preparatory departments in Russia provide full language immersion, while Russian language centers in Morocco are in demand for mixed families and those who have already decided to study in Russia. SPbPU and RUDN will provide comprehensive methodological support to the Polytech-Global Center to help talented Moroccans enter Russian universities. 🇷🇺🇲🇦 Cooperation continues!

🇲🇦 RAFU Days have concluded in Morocco! Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University (coordinator of the Russian-African Network University — RAFU) has organized a series of key events. 📌 What has been accomplished? 🔹 Participation of 6 Russian universities at the joint RAFU booth at Le Forum International de l'Étudiant exhibition in Casablanca. 🔹 RAFU Day at Hassan II University. 🔹 Open Russian language lessons for prospective students.

He started a chain reaction ⚗ Today marks the 130th anniversary of the birth of Nikolai Nikolaevich Semyonov, an outstanding physicist, chemist, and professor at the Polytechnic Institute, the first Nobel Prize winner in chemistry in the USSR — awarded in 1956 (jointly with Cyril Hinshelwood) "for his research into the mechanism of chemical reactions." 📚 At just 24 years old, Nikolai Nikolaevich became a lecturer at the Petrograd Polytechnic Institute. And as a 30-year-old associate professor, he founded his own school, which colleagues aptly nicknamed the "Semyonov Regiment." 🧪 Nikolai Nikolaevich made fundamental contributions to the establishment of chemical physics: he developed the theory of chain and branched reactions (using the oxidation of phosphorus vapor as an example), the theory of thermal explosions and combustion of gas mixtures, and together with Pyotr Kapitsa, he devised a method for measuring the magnetic moment of the atom.

🔔 Reminder: Career Guidance for Prep Faculty Students — TODAY! Just a few hours left! If you're at the preparatory faculty and still choosing your future specialty — this event is for you.

🗓 Today: April 8 at 4:00 PM 📍 Where: Resource Center, 28 Grazhdansky Prospekt, Building 16, 2nd floor 🗣 Language: Russian

No registration needed. Just come. See you at 4:00 PM! 🇷🇺

Ever dreamed of seeing yourself on a movie poster? At Polytech, you don’t have to dream 😉 An exhibition called “One-to-One” has opened at the IMOP building. It features recreations of iconic movie and TV posters, brought to life by international students and their teachers. Friends, Santa Barbara, The Office — and many more. Come by, explore, and maybe even spot your pals on the posters!

🖼 The idea for the exhibition came from a love of art. As the organizers explain: “At first, we thought about recreating paintings, but then realized it might not feel modern enough for students. That’s how we came up with the idea of poster recreations — something much more relevant for a young audience.”

The main challenge was to recreate each poster as accurately as possible. And the participants nailed it — from outfits to facial expressions, poses, and overall mood of the original characters. You can check out the exhibition at the Winter Garden until early summer ✨ #noted #global

What you'll get: ✔️ An overview of popular majors at SPbPU for international students. ✔️ Help understanding which faculty fits your strengths and interests. ✔️ Information about admission requirements after the preparatory faculty. ✔️ A chance to ask real questions about your future career in Russia.
