At the forum, a cooperation agreement was signed between HSE University (NRU HSE) and the St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution "Museum of the History of Kronstadt".
The agreement was signed by Pavel Kuzmin, Deputy Director for Educational Affairs and Digital Transformation of HSE University's St. Petersburg campus, and Oleg Bykhovsky, Acting Director of the Museum of the History of Kronstadt. The agreement is aimed at developing cooperation in the scholarly and educational, exhibition, and information spheres.
For us, today is truly a major event and a great honor to sign an agreement with HSE University, especially within the framework of the St. Petersburg International United Cultures Forum. The Museum of the History of Kronstadt has been cooperating with the university for several years. We regularly showcase student works, including within the international environmental festival 'Kronfest,' which is held annually in Kronstadt. Now we have formalized our relationship, and I am confident this will spur further cooperation. I am sure that in a year we will be able to proudly share how our collaboration has flourished,” said Oleg Bykhovsky.
HSE University always strives for a strong practical orientation. Students should not only study, but also gain hands-on experience. It is a great honor for us to formalize such cooperation. This year, with the launch of programs in architecture and art history, I am confident our collaboration will expand, and truly remarkable projects will adorn our city," noted Pavel Kuzmin.
