We are very glad that Siberian Federal University has established the School of the North and the Arctic aimed not only at solving the problem of preparing people from remote northern settlements for entering higher educational organizations schools, but also at allowing indigenous people of the North, Siberia and the Far East to get receive a Bachelor’s or even a Master’s degree.

For instance, in at the International North School, students get receive high-quality pre-university training, they live on campus, attend cultural and scientific events, communicate (interact) with students and professors every day (on a daily basis). In the meantime, the curriculum for people from the northern territories provides (includes) disciplines in Northern studies, which allows preserving (maintain) and expanding their knowledge about their native culture, the North and its unique features.

We do our best to make the School of the North and the Arctic a world-class scientific and educational center. It was established for solving the current tasks related to the development of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation and training highly-qualified personnel for the North and the Arctic
