President of the Academy Lyudmila Verbitskaya handed over the diploma to Dr. Gafurov on December 21st in Moscow.
This honor serves as another sign of appreciation for the work conducted at Kazan University in the recent years.
During the merger process that formed the present Kazan Federal University (since 2009) it so happened that humanities and teacher education are a very significant part of its structure. The management tasked themselves with integrating pedagogy into all the strategic academic units and the new University 3.0 plan.
This, in particular, was voiced by Rector Gafurov during his speech in front of ROPRYAL members in October 2016. The organization’s fifth congress was hosted by KFU. Yet another recognition was given by the Russian Psychological Society that held its presidium meeting in Kazan and now plans to bring its national congress to Kazan University as well.
