Kazan once again confirms its status as a key centre of Eurasian integration. On 22-25 November, Kazan will host a large-scale Forum of the Association of Sino-Russian Technical Universities (ASRTU), dedicated to issues of sovereign engineering education and joint technological development of the two countries in the face of global challenges. The event will be attended by the Ministers of Education of the Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China, as well as the heads of approximately 100 leading technological universities of the Russian Federation and China.
The Forum’s programme focuses on the formation of a unified educational, scientific, and technological space. The ASRTU will not only exchange knowledge and experience but also develop innovative technologies and solutions that could be in demand in both Russia and China. The scientific and practical part is divided into eight technology tracks, supervised by leading Russian scientific and educational centres: Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (artificial intelligence), Bauman Moscow State Technical University (quantum technologies and radiophotonics), Samara National Research University (unmanned systems), Moscow Aviation Institute (composite materials), Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University (additive technologies), Moscow Power Engineering Institute (new energy power), the Russian Chemical Technology University (petrochemistry), and Kazan Federal University (oil production). In addition, a rectors’ meeting titled “Lessons from Successful Collaboration Cases” aimed at scaling up the experience of joint laboratories and double degree programmes will be held during the Forum.
The Forum’s business programme and exhibition will be held at the IT Park named after Bashir Rameev. The exhibition will showcase recent technological achievements from Russia and China.
The Forum’s youth programme will include an international track within the forum “Engineering Education and Technological Development in Russia and China: Responses to Global Challenges”. This track will help overcome communication barriers, unify educational approaches to strengthen scientific and technical cooperation, and accelerate innovation and technological development.
“For Tatarstan, hosting a forum of this level is both a great honor and a logical result of our systematic work with our Chinese partners. We work directly with eight Chinese provinces and the city of Chongqing, accumulating extensive experience in hosting major joint events, including regional meetings and the large-scale international Forum SPROUTS. Our goal is to ensure that developments in AI, composites, and new materials, which universities will discuss in the sections, are implemented in Tatarstan. We are also placing a strong emphasis on the youth track at the Volga camp: investing in young engineers and their joint startups is the key to technological sovereignty, which is being established here and now,” emphasised Taliya Minullina, Chief Executive of the Tatarstan Investment Development Agency.
The final day of the Forum, 25 November, will be entirely devoted to tours of Kazan’s leading industrial enterprises and innovation centres.
