The collection of the Center for Iranian Studies and the Persian Language of the Ural Federal University will be replenished with new teaching aids, assistance will be provided by the Iranian Embassy - this was agreed today by the rector of the university Viktor Koksharov and the ambassador of the Islamic Republic Kazem Jalali.

“It is worth noting the genuine interest of our students in Iranian culture and the study of Farsi,” Viktor Koksharov said. “Therefore, since 2016, the center of Iranian studies has been operating at our university. In addition, we have something to offer Iranian scientific and educational organizations in the field of pharmaceuticals, radio electronics and other areas of science and technology.”

The head of the university emphasized that the recommendations prepared by UrFU scientists based on the results of joint work with the Sharif Technological University can be used to build a long-term strategy for the transition to the principles of sustainable economic development in the context of efficient use of natural resources.

“UrFU is an authoritative scientific center,” the ambassador is sure. “In the new geopolitical conditions, horizons of cooperation are opening up before our countries, which, taking into account the capabilities of your university, seem important to us.”
