Participation in the 2nd International Conference «Social, economic, and academic leadership for the future sustainable development of business and education»
On September 12-15, 2017 the professors of the RUDN University Advertising and Business Communications Department of the Institute of International Economics and Business (IMEB) took part in the 2 International Conference «Social and Economic and Academic Leadership for the Sustainable Development of Business and Education in the Future» in Prague (Czech Republic), at the Prague Institute for Qualification Enhancement.
RUDN University professors made a presentation and the report: «Leadership and students: is there a future for the knowledge economy in Russia?» (Co-authors - Zemskaya YN, Glagoleva AV, Kuznetsova EA), in the section «Leadership» in educational practice. The result of participation in the conference was publication of the report in the serie Business and Economics, published by Springer and submitted for indexation in the Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (Web of Science Core Collection), publication date May 2018.
The event was attended by 96 participants from Poland, Lithuania, Czech Republic, Turkey, India, Russia, Romania, Slovakia, USA.
The International Conference was aimed at bringing together researchers and stakeholders from the fields of business, economics, education, social sciences, psychology and behavioral sciences, pedagogy and linguistics.
The conference was comprised of 6 main Tracks:
- Leadership as a social, cultural and psychological phenomenon
- Leadership as a subject of social practice
- Leadership in business and economics
- Leadership as a dominant of the international academic policy
- Leadership in educational practice
- Leadership for the sustainable development of business and education: paradox or necessity?
Among the key speakers of the 2nd International Conference «Social, economic, and academic leadership for the future sustainable development of business and education» were:

On October 4, the Research and Educational Resource Center (REC) of innovative technologies of immunophenotyping, digital spatial profiling and ultrastructural analysis (molecular morphology) opened at the RUDN.
RUDN University scientists conducted a comprehensive soil and environmental survey and took more than 80 soil samples in Zaryadye Park. An assessment of the physicochemical, microbiological, and ecotoxicological properties of soils made it possible to develop recommendations and a plan for the care of soils in analogous landscapes in the park.
RUDN University chemist with colleagues from India and Korea created a nanofilter for water purification from synthetic dyes. The graphene-based composite can quickly remove up to 100% of harmful compounds from water, and it can be used up to seven times without losing efficiency. In addition, the synthesis of the nanofilter itself is economical and environmentally friendly.
