Dear friends, colleagues, and students!

The year 2025 will go down in history very soon. And in these last hours of the passing year, I sincerely want to thank each of you. Thank you for your hard work, for your energy, and for the successes that have become a growth driver for our entire university.

We have really succeeded a lot. We have set important strategic vectors in infrastructure development, strengthening partnership projects, and modernizing all levels of education. We have laid the foundation for new youth and international initiatives. It was a big, meaningful job.

The success of every student, teacher, and scientist is a building block in the foundation of our common reputation. This is the very energy that drives the federal University forward.

This year, new talents have been ignited at our university – in sports, in creativity, in studies and in science. We have strengthened our scientific and educational foundation, confirming the status of the flagship university of the North Caucasus.

Our scientists are implementing more grants and government assignments. Our students receive support for their first startups. NCFU science represents the prospects of tomorrow, which we are already creating today.

In the new year, 2026, we will focus on commercializing developments, launching new application projects and expanding partnerships with industry. Our ambition is to consolidate the role of NCFU as the main innovation platform and intellectual locomotive of the south of Russia.

May this new year be a time of great achievements, bold ideas and bright professional victories for all of us.

With all my heart, I wish you to celebrate 2026 with your family, with new hopes and the kindest aspirations. Gain strength and inspiration during these holidays.

May the coming year bring success and recognition to your work. Let every day be a step towards your dream, opening up new horizons and strengthening your self-confidence.

I wish you and your loved ones good health, well-being and peace of mind. May you have even more reasons to be happy and proud in the new year, both for your personal victories and for the overall successes of our great North Caucasus Federal University!

Happy New Year, dear friends!

Acting Rector of NCFU T.A. Shebzukhov
