About the university:
The Belarusian-Russian University is an interstate institution of higher education of the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation.
The University offers a variety of programs in the field of secondary, higher, postgraduate and continuing professional education. About 20 years ago we were the first in the region to open the Continuing Education and Professional Development Institute. Today, we are the first to offer distance education in the regional market of the educational services.
The University continues to work on creating scientific and industrial laboratories that provide close cooperation between higher education and production.
Creation of a unified system “science – education – production” ensures dynamics of key components of the pedagogical system and allows adapting general theoretical and general professional training of future specialists for promising areas of innovative production.
Developing cooperation with foreign universities, our University seeks to create favorable conditions for export of educational services and increase the number of undergraduate and graduate students from the CIS and other foreign countries.
