It was necessary to cover more than 50% of the entire audience of the university, - said Anna Kanasheva, Head of the Department of Social and Educational Work of the SUAI.

Our result in the ranking, active participation in the survey is an indicator of constant and continuous work with students, confirmation of the high assessment of the work of our department, - shared Larisa Nikolaeva, Vice-Rector for Educational Work and Youth Policy of the SUAI.
