Today Russia and Turkey are strengthening partner relationships in civil engineering, agriculture, tourism, metallurgy, car manufacturing, and military engineering. Besides, preference is given to cooperation in aerospace engineering, pharmaceutics and digital technologies.

For example, Russian universities have been training specialists for Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant, the first NPP in Turkey, for many years.

The graduates say that they had no room for mistakes during their studies, and their teachers never let them forget anything, they had to know everything.

The upward trend in Turkey's demand for Russian education has led to an increase in the number of quota places at universities. In 2022, the Russian Government allocated 250 tuition-free education quotas for Turkey, and State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom offered 50 more quotas.

Turkish citizens can also study at Russian universities on a fee-paying basis. The cost of educational programs is considerably lower compared to universities of Europe, America and Asian countries.
