The opportunities for students of the Ural Federal University to undergo practical training at the Tashkent Metallurgical Plant were discussed at a meeting at the Ural Federal University by Victor Koksharov, Rector of the university, and Aleksandr Dyakonov, Deputy General Director of Tashkent Metallurgical Plant.

"It is important for us that our graduates, especially from Uzbekistan, understand in advance where they can go to work and what good employers there are. Tashkent Metallurgical Plant is developing very well and rapidly, and is a good prospect not only for metallurgists, but also for power engineers, construction workers and other specialists," the rector noted.

The parties also agreed that UrFU could help solve technological problems facing Tashkent Metallurgical Plant. The Director of the Institute of New Materials and Technologies, Oleg Sheshukov, gave Aleksandr Dyakonov a tour of the institute's laboratories.

In addition, there was a meeting with Ural Federal University students from Uzbekistan. Aleksandr Dyakonov introduced students to internship opportunities in their home country, talked about what skills students should have in order to build a successful career, and much more.

The visit was a return visit after the Rector of the Ural Federal University and representatives of the university worked in Tashkent as part of the delegation of the Middle Ural at the international industrial exhibition "Innoprom. Central Asia".
