HSE University and ANO Integration plan to jointly develop projects aimed at creating new approaches to education and advancing innovative agrobiotechnologies. The parties signed the corresponding agreement at the XI Congress ‘Innovative Practice: Science Plus Business.’ 

One area of collaboration between HSE and ANO Integration (Autonomous Non-profit Organisation ‘Integration Education Development Centre’) will focus on advancing agricultural education. The parties intend to develop and customise master's programmes in genetics and breeding while working on establishing a unified pre-university agricultural education system to address the workforce crisis in the agricultural sector and ensure sustainable rural development. 

Additionally, the organisations agreed to support agricultural universities participating in the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of Russia's ‘Priority 2030’ and ‘Advanced Engineering Schools’ programmes. These universities will prepare strategic projects aimed at creating critical technologies for the agricultural sector. The projects include developing new genetic technologies, biologising plant and animal production, and introducing digital solutions for agriculture.

‘Given the importance of innovation and technology for the agricultural sector, our university has long set goals to expand research activities in this field and to train modern professionals for the domestic agricultural sector at a fundamentally new level, with qualifications at the intersection of various technologies. We hope that the combination of HSE's scientific expertise, advanced educational standards, and achievements in innovative technologies with the experience of our colleagues at Integration in reforming agricultural education will help us create conditions for our agriculture to successfully respond to the challenges of the new era,’ said HSE Rector Nikita Anisimov

‘HSE University possesses exceptional research and educational competencies that are now reaching the agricultural sector. Our collaboration aims to train specialists for the agricultural sector and develop innovative agrotechnologies capable of replacing foreign solutions and strengthening Russia's food security,’ commented Vladimir Avdeenko, General Director of ANO Integration.
