Siberian Federal University

About

Siberian Federal University is a modern, multidisciplinary university that combines a high level of fundamental and applied research with the training of personnel for high-tech industries and individual entrepreneurship. SFU is among the national leaders in terms of the quality of education and relevance of scientific research.

The XXIХ World Winter Universiade 2019 in Krasnoyarsk became a powerful impetus for the development of the university's infrastructure. The university has one of the most developed and well-appointed campuses in Russia, which is located within the boundaries of the unique Gremyachaya Griva Nature Park, near the Sopka and Raduga sports facilities. Today the SFU campus, being an exemplary example of a modern urban environment, has become not only a business card and a competitive advantage, but also a center of attraction for talented young people, a meeting place for friends and a university quarter where ideas are born and implemented.

The dormitories of the Siberian Federal University are recognized as the best in the country. All conditions for a comfortable stay have been created here: a gym, a photo studio, a film club and even a museum.

This summer at SFU promises to be bright and interesting! Modern teaching methods and intensive enrichment of theoretical knowledge in practice will make the process of studying at the summer university in SFU exciting and relaxed. Since the program involves studying and solving topical issues, the acquired knowledge and skills will be useful for all participants in their future professional activities.

In addition to the training component, the organizers have planned a diverse cultural and educational program: a city photo rally, an introduction to the historical quarter, an open-air event, a tour of the Stolby State Reserve, as well as a series of industrial excursions to leading enterprises in Krasnoyarsk.
