The university hosted a three-day seminar on the development of research skills

Last week, a three-day seminar on writing scientific texts was held at Ural Federal University. Head of the Secretariat for International Cooperation and Development of the Swedish Agency for Radiation Safety Lars van Dassen presented the ways of developing research skills to students, undergraduates and graduate students of the Department of International Relations.

The rector of UrFU Victor Koksharov, in his turn, invited the head of the secretariat to think about organizing of summer or winter schools at the university on topics of radiation safety and non-proliferation of nuclear weapons. The idea was approved by Lars van Dassin.

We would like to remind, that the university and the Swedish Agency for Radiation Safety organize courses and trainings for academic members, as well as seminars for students in the field of non-proliferation of nuclear weapons since 2007. The Agency supports research of scientists of the university in Russia and abroad.

The team of UrFU project group teaches seven disciplines on the subject of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, a multilateral international act developed by the UN Disarmament Committee, both in Russian and English.
