In 2021, RUDN launched a grant support system for young scientists and research teams. To date, 247 teams from various institutes and faculties, including those outside our university, have participated in the program.
A young scientist at RUDN University is not just a researcher, but a bridge between cultures and disciplines. Their strength lies in “hybrid” thinking: they combine the traditions of the Russian academic school with a global perspective, work in international collaborations, and see science as a tool for solving specific problems facing humanity — from food security to interfaith dialogue. Their research is born at the intersection of faculties, and the results speak for themselves in Q1 and Q2 articles and real technologies.
