Cooperation with UAE educational institutions was discussed on 26th August.
“Unfortunately, we have not yet had tight cooperation with educational and research centers of the United Arab Emirates. I can attribute this to the fact that we haven’t met, and the situation can change after today,” prefaced Dr. Gafurov.
The planned cooperation areas are molecular biology, medicine, IT, petrochemistry, physics, and mathematics.
Minister Al Hammadi expressed his interest, “We know that we have basically zero joint projects as of now, and we want to change the circumstances. I suggest gathering a delegation of UAE academics and sending them to KFU for a detailed overview, and we also invite your people to our country. We are trying to blend East and West together, and studying Russian educational system would be an important step here.”
The two executives also mentioned the opportunity to welcome UAE high schoolers at summer science camps in Kazan.
