The EUSP International Programs have started the new academic year for the 17th time since 1998, when IMARES hosted its first students almost two decades ago.
Fourteen countries are represented this year by students from the USA, Denmark, Germany, UK, Italy, Russia, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Estonia, Greece, Malaysia, Australia and South Korea. Our students, faculty and administration gathered on September 1 for a short opening ceremony of the Fall '14 semester at the EUSP Golden Hall to meet and to introduce themselves.
"EUSP has built our multidisciplinary international programs focused on Russian and Eurasian Studies to challenge the methodological premises of state-centered political realism and to integrate economic, political, cultural, ethical and social analyses to design better multi-level understanding of the region. We hope that soon our graduates will be those in governance, think tanks, energy companies and cultural institutions and they will be the ones who tackle the most urgent problems of the present",- said Maria Trofimova, the Dean of the International Programs, during her opening remarks.
