RUDN develops cooperation with Uganda
During the conversation, the parties touched upon issues of cooperation in the field of training highly qualified national personnel at RUDN University, as well as organizing mutually beneficial cooperation between RUDN and Ugandan partners in creating and promoting innovative technologies in the field of engineering and pharmacology.
The Prime Minister highly appreciated the significance and role of RUDN in training national personnel not only for Uganda, but also for all African states, noting their significant contribution to the economic and humanitarian development of their countries.
The delegates presented information materials about the university, its programs and research projects for consideration and preparation of concrete proposals for cooperation with RUDN.
The number of foreign ambassadors of Russian education and science has reached 47. In October 2026, 12 more teachers, scientists, and public figures received this honorary status - from Brazil, Israel, Kazakhstan, Cameroon, China, Lebanon, Moldova, Mongolia, Nigeria, Peru, Syria, and the Central African Republic. Five of them studied at Peoples' Friendship University of Russia.
Last week, RUDN University welcomed a delegation led by Gao Song, President of Peking University. The visit marked his first international trip since assuming office as the rector of the university, which ranks 13th globally.
In RUDN’s main building, Russian speech has mixed with Arabic and strict business suits with national attire. The reason for this is the 100th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Russia and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The university hosted a large-scale event “The Century of Friendship, Cultural and Scientific Exchange between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Russian Federation”, which brought together diplomats, scientists, rectors of leading universities, and students.
