Starting a new school year, we do not just enter the usual schedule. There is a meaning for each participant in the educational process.
The freshmen have an unknown life ahead. It is full of adventures and discoveries. Don't be afraid to start again if something doesn't work out right away, believe in yourself, work hard, actively engage not only in educational, but also in scientific, cultural, sports activities. You will not be disappointed because your efforts will be appreciated. You will become real specialists, acquire friends (perhaps for life!) and learn to courageously look into the unknown future.
Students who have already studied for at least a year know what it means to study hard - but they also understand that student life is almost the best time in human life. Where else will be so many opportunities to try something new, take risks, implement various ideas, make discoveries, realize the most daring plans! Dear students, I would like to wish you not to lose this amazing energy of youth, when even mistakes become important steps on the path of victory.
Dear colleagues, professors and staff! We had a very difficult year: we went through the most complicated procedure of state accreditation of the university and practically at the same time were forced to take up its structural transformation (these are time requirements). However, I have no doubt that we have not only survived in difficult circumstances, but we are also becoming better, more modern, more relevant in terms of educational technologies, and therefore more confident in our plans and prospects. At the same time, our noble public mission has not gone anywhere either: education of new generations, new professionals in their field, comprehensively developed and responsible people, personnel potential of our country. From year to year, despite all objective problems and difficult circumstances, our highly qualified team brings its own considerable contribution to Russian higher education. We have a lot to be proud of, and we have a right to look to the future with optimism.
Everyone for whom this wonderful day is meaningful, and especially those for whom words "Higher education" and "Ivanovo State University" are synonyms, I congratulate you on Knowledge Day! Let your personal and professional life give you more bright days, wonderful starts, joyful discoveries, victories and achievements! Happy Knowledge Day!
Acting Rector of IvSU A.A. Malygin
