Volga Region University has completed a series of graduation celebrations - the fifth of July was traditionally the most long-awaited and numerous celebration at the Institute of Sports. 
Among the graduates of this institute are not only masters of sports, winners and medalists of championships and championships in sports, but also laureates of scientific and practical conferences and competitions, as well as authors of unique educational programmes, who proved by personal example that a modern athlete should improve not only physically.

The number of graduates who were recognised as the best according to the results of several years of education was also the highest - 40 people received letters of thanks from the rector's hands. Almaz Khusainov, Deputy Minister of Sport of the Republic of Tatarstan, was the guest of honour at the ceremony. 

"Four years ago, when today's bachelor's graduates were submitting documents to the admissions committee, it seemed that the pandemic would never end. But together we coped with these difficulties and became stronger," Rafis Burganov told from the stage. - Graduation is an emotionally challenging day. We are happy that our students have received knowledge and a profession, but at the same time we realise that it is time to say goodbye. We are always waiting for new meetings - come without a reason to meet and socialise, bring your children as soon as they grow up to our Integrated Sports School, or come back for a new profession on retraining courses. Today we, together with your parents and future employers, are happy because we are sure that we are producing the best personnel in the country".
