On October 2-7, 2018, Marina Khuzhina, the Dean of NVSU Faculty of Information Technology and Mathematics, visited Liepaja University (Liepaja, Latvia). The visit was supported by the European Union’s Erasmus+ 2014-2020 program as part of the academic mobility project approved for funding in 2018 (Key Action 1: Learning mobility of individuals) between NVSU and Liepaja University.

During the visit, Marina Khudzhina had a meeting with students of the faculties of Natural Sciences and Engineering and Humanities and Arts, and gave a joint lecture to students specializing in information technologies. In addition, she met with Zanda Gutmane, the Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and Arts, as well as heads of educational programs and teachers, and visited various workshops and studios. As Zanda Gutmane said, the Faculty of Humanities and Arts at Liepaja University is particularly interested in exchanging students with Russian universities, since learning Russian language will significantly increase students’ competitiveness in the labor market.

Marina Khudzhina also met with Liepaja University vice-rectors for education and research. The parties agreed to continue academic mobility of students and faculty members and implement joint research and educational projects.
