Novosibirsk State University, with the support of the Center for Public Diplomacy, opened a preparatory department at the Thomas Sankara University in Burkina Faso, becoming the first Russian university to begin working in this format in this North African country. Currently, two groups of bachelors and masters are studying there, with a total of 50 people. The program includes Russian language courses taught online by NSU teachers.

The courses will last until August 2025. The next stage will be the organization of preparatory courses in the medical and biological profile. Students who successfully complete the courses and pass the entrance examinations will be able to continue their studies at NSU. The university also plans to organize internships for students from Burkina Faso lasting 3-6 months, which will deepen their practical knowledge and introduce them to Russian educational standards.

— NSU and Thomas Sankara University signed a cooperation agreement within the framework of the International Forum of Technological Cooperation “Technoprom-2024”. This agreement provides for the development of joint programs, including student training, internships and scientific research.
