New perspectives in cooperation between Murmansk State Humanities University and Maria Curie-Skłodowska University.
September 9-10 th, Milosh Huber and Olga Jakowlewa, representatives from the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University (Lublin, Poland) paid a visit to the MSHU. Within the program of visit, there were held a few meetings with vice-rector for scientific research Galina Zhigunova, deans Olga Kievskaya and Elena Statsenko and International cooperation department.
Polish colleagues have offered MSHU a large-scale cooperation, covering both humanities and natural-science spheres. Within the humanities science, it is planned to develop relations in the field of studying Polish language and culture at MSHU and studying Russian as a foreign language at the University of Maria Curie-Skłodowska.
Milosh Huber also told us about possible areas of cooperation in the field of geography, geology, ecology and biology, focusing on such aspects of the interaction, as the academic mobility of teachers and students and joint research projects. Polish colleagues suggested scientists of Murmansk State Humanities University publish their articles in the «Journal of Biology and Earth Sciences», and participate in the creation of a new international journal dedicated to the problems of tourism. Milosh Huber shared his presentations, which describe the possibilities of the Faculty of Earth Sciences and Spatial Economics in the University of Maria Sklodowska-Curie, the beauty of Polish nature, and the results of studies conducted on the Kola Peninsula. One of the presentations, called «The beauty of Minerals», was presented on lectures for students from the Design Department, where Mr. Huber told them about the unique collaboration of artists and mineralogists at the University of Maria Curie-Sklodowska.
At the beginning of 2015 Milos Huber plans to visit MSHU again and give lectures for students-ecologists.
