The Vice-Rector presented letters of appreciation to students

Today Sergey Kurochkin, Ural Federal University Vice-Rector for International Relations, presented letters of appreciation signed by the Rector to Sakher Tameme (Jordan), Mohammed Alghannami (Iraq), Omar Zayed (Egypt) for their work on the Arabic version of the university website. 

"You have made a great contribution to the development of our university's international activities and actively participated in the creation of the Arabic version of our website. I hope that this is only the first step, and in the future you will also help us. Thank you very much!", stated Sergey Kurochkin. 

The students who worked on the site reported that they learned a lot about the university. 

"It was interesting for us to translate the website. We have been studying at UrFU for several years, but did not know many things. We are happy to help the university," added Zayed Omar Mehdat El-Sayed, student of the Institute of Radio Electronics and Information Technologies.

The new Arabic website version contains the most important information for future students: accommodation, programs, admission procedure and scholarships. 

"Having a website in Arabic will play an important role for prospective students from Arab countries in choosing a university, because it shows a higher level of the university," Mohammed Alghannami, Bachelor’s student of the Institute of Civil Engineering and Architecture and Sakher Tameme, PhD student of the Ural Institute of Humanities.
