"The InteRussia fellowship programme is designed to create a horizontal network of young researchers and professionals around the world who know Russia, who love it for what it is, and who would enjoy professional contacts that subsequently lead to certain research results. We hope that the programme will contribute to a productive academic dialogue on the general development of international relations theory and international studies."
"Over the two years of the programme’s existence, more than 140 foreign specialists from over 70 countries have visited Russia, and in each case, programme participants have the opportunity to study at the best universities and leading companies of their interest. Our joint programme with MGIMO was the first, and today it remains one of the most important, as it allows us to bring young researchers together: political scientists and experts in international and area studies from all over the world. We learn from their experience and share ours. We hope that this journey will be useful for you and mark the beginning of our fruitful cooperation."
"MGIMO will be your home for the next six weeks. I know from personal experience that it is not easy to spend such a long period away from home, as I have taken part in student exchanges abroad. But I have also realised that being in a foreign country for an extended period of time is an opportunity to learn new things about yourself, your countries and meet colleagues from all over the world. I encourage you to make the most of your participation in the programme."
"It is important to convey the approaches that Russian science uses in studying the complex problems of international relations to audiences in your own countries."
