The “Russkiy Mir” Foundation provided students of Savitribai Phule Pune University in India with a unique opportunity to study Russian at the Digital Pre-University Faculty of RUDN
The appeal for support was initiated by the Head of the Russian Language Department, Mrs Anagha Bhat Behere. In response to the growing interest in Russian language among students and teachers, the Foundation responded and facilitated their participation in the Russian language course, which was a real gift to all.
Initially the course was planned to have 31 students, but interest in language learning proved to be much higher, with a total of 65 students eventually enrolling in the programme.
As a result, students of different backgrounds - from beginners to more experienced - achieved impressive results through regular and persistent lessons with teachers and on the online platform.
The courses not only helped students master the basics of Russian, but also helped them overcome various difficulties they encountered during their studies. Many of them are motivated to continue learning Russian.
We express our sincere gratitude to the Russkiy Mir Foundation for the opportunity and support in the field of Russian language learning!
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.
