International Cooperation

International activity. Partnerships.

Scientific cooperation with foreign organizations is carried out in the following areas: joint conducting of scientific events; improving professional competence of teachers through internships in foreign educational institutions, as well as participation in international seminars; joint publishing with scientists from other countries.

Since September 2013 ONU has been an associate member of a powerful international association - the University Agency of Francophonie (AUF). The agency brings together 800 university educational institutions in more than 100 countries that use the French language in teaching and research, therefore, there is a single channel for communication.

Students, postgraduate students, teachers, researchers, managers of research topics and projects, representatives of university administration - everyone who wants to optimize their own experience and gain new one in their field through cooperation with their foreign colleagues under an umbrella of the French language can count on support and participation in one or another project.

The global goal of the association is to support an effective scientific space for community development. More information about AUF projects can be found at: https://www.auf.org
