Rector Konstantin Markelov Sends Astrakhan State University His Greetings on Knowledge Day

Dear students, dear teachers! I’m sending you my cordial greetings on September 1. This is the most important holiday in the life of any university, because it symbolizes the beginning of another academic year.

I think one cannot but agree that studying and working at such a prestigious university as ASU is a real pride for each of us. We keep strengthening our positions in Southern Russia, becoming a Caspian Open University, the largest scientific and educational center of the Southern Federal District.

Addressing the freshers, I want to express my hope that studying at Astrakhan State University will bring you only pleasure and help you develop those skills and abilities that you lacked. The whole student life is ahead. Let the chosen profession turn out to be your constant vector of development, and the projects, initiatives and developments that you create at university will later become your property, grow into something bigger, and make the world around us better.

In the 2022/2023 academic year, I would like to wish the teachers ambitious students, achievements in scientific activities, and new pedagogical discoveries. Remember that you are out-and-out professionals in your field.

We have a difficult but very interesting academic year ahead. Let’s try our best!

Happy Knowledge Day!
