RUDN University receives a platinum certificate in the FISU Healthy Campus project
“For three years in the FISU Healthy Campus project, RUDN University has made a breakthrough in promoting the values of physical culture and a healthy lifestyle among students. The number of sport events has increased. Student sports club ‘Friendship’ has united people who are engaged in various activities — from cheerleading to rowing. Many of them started their sports career at the university. These achievements are the result of the joint work of students and administration of RUDN University”, said Sergey Bazavluk, Vice-Rector for Work with RUDN University Students.
RUDN University joined Healthy Campus in 2019, as a pilot site becoming the first university in Russia and Eastern Europe to take part in the project.
