Lake Ritsa Upon the end of the practice, the students reported on the event: “Sukhum-HPP is a private station, with the personal contribution of the staff to the recovery work of the station. The work group is incredibly friendly, welcoming and kind-hearted. You can always ask away any question and receive support and practical help. That was a great experience. We managed to study the HPP and as well to get relaxed in a picturesque corner.” Создан в 28.07.2022 19:10 пользователем: Малышева Евгения Анатольевна Изменен в 28.07.2022 19:10 пользователем: Малышева Евгения Анатольевна News 27.03.2024MPEI delegation opens new horizons of cooperation with China22.03.2024MPEI branch in Dushanbe celebrated Nowruz holiday19.03.2024MPEI foreign students took part in the World Youth Festival18.03.2024Ministry of Higher Education of the Republic of Cuba at MPEI18.03.2024MPEI at the Russia-Cuba Intergovernmental Commission18.03.2024Spring Meeting of BRICS Network University International Thematic Group on Energy14.03.2024MPEI awarded the title “MPEI Honorary Professor” to the President of the Union of Chinese Entrepreneurs in Russia11.03.2024Training of the ETALON students at the North China Electric Power University04.03.2024International Conference "Integration Processes in Scientific,Technical and Educational Space"29.02.2024Meeting of MPEI graduates from China
