TSPU AT "BIG UNIVERSITY" EVENT IN TOMSK

Employees of Tomsk State Pedagogical University, along with colleagues from other universities of the city, as well as the Moscow School of Management "Skolkovo", are taking part in the events of "the Big University" project that will unite all Tomsk universities and research institutes. The opening of the "Big University" will be a serious step towards winning the competition for the creation of a world-class scientific and educational center. 

“I believe that Tomsk science should be more visible, and this is one of the main goals of the project. The business should have one entry point for the implementation of research and development. Tomsk Oblast is one of the few regions of Russia that can move science and technology, taking into account its diversity”, - said S.A. Zhvachkin, the governor of the Tomsk region

"The Big University" will become a powerful platform for the joint work of Tomsk universities to solve local and federal problems. Moreover, the head of the region said that the main idea is not about combining universities into one legal entity with one rector, academic council and student ID card. The focus is on the synergy that exists today, for example, at Oxford and Stanford.
