On June 5, Vladimir Stroyev, Rector of the State University of Management, took part in a press conference dedicated to the IV season of the educational and tourist project “University Shifts” to be held from June to September 2025.

Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation Olga Petrova spoke about further plans for the development of the project:

“Next year, we are planning a closer integration of shifts with national projects and an expansion of participation opportunities for children from Russian territories, because they also want to join universities.”

The Deputy Minister also stressed the importance of involving university students as camp counselors, as this contributes to a deeper understanding of what has happened and is happening in new territories.

Rector of the State University of Management Vladimir Stroev noted the changes that have occurred over the years in the mood of the shift participants:

“We are proud that our university has been participating in the project from the very beginning. Thanks to Olga Petrova, who comes to visit every shift, the “Movement of the First” and the “Knowledge” society, with whom we have been closely cooperating for a long time and implementing joint thematic projects. It all started out difficult. In 2022, the guys came with different moods, we had to work a lot with them psychologically. Last year, the participants already had a different atmosphere, the complexity of interaction of the first years was gone. These are already our citizens who are interested in the history of their country.”

Vladimir Stroyev also recalled that in 2025, the State University of Management will hold three shifts: cultural and educational, educational, where students will learn about the university’s educational programs, and entrepreneurial.

The press conference was also attended by Deputy Director of the Department for Integration of the National Education System and International Cooperation of the Ministry of Education of Russia Pavel Belokon, Deputy Chairperson of the Board of the All-Russian Public-State Movement of Children and Youth “Movement of the First” Sonya Pogosyan, Deputy General Director of the Russian Society “Knowledge” Irina Karikh and Vice-Rector for Work with Students of the Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia named after Patrice Lumumba Mikhail Katsarsky.

Let us recall that “University Shifts” is a project that helps schoolchildren and students see the structure of universities from the inside and get acquainted with the educational program and opportunities of higher education institutions. In 2025, about 90 universities from all over the country are waiting for the guys.
