Today I visited Ryazan State University which is named after the poet Sergey A. Yesenin. We discussed with Rector Dmitry A. Bokov future lectures.
Twice per semester I will present a guest-lecture of apx. 2 hours.
The first one will be in mid-February on the automotive industry, a topic on which I published a book in 2020. Actually most of my conclusions proved to be right: namely that the internal combustion engine will prevail and that the remaining European car factories risk to be turned into museums.
Our do-tank, the G.O.R.K.I. at St.Petersburg State University is my professional priority. And we do a lot as you can see in this channel and via G.O.R.K.i talks
@gorkispbuTogether with the Empress Catherine II Saint Petersburg Mining University we have recently launched a series of common activities.
Furthermore, I continue doing guest lectures across the country. Russia is much more than Moscow and St.Petersburg and I appreciate the exchange with colleagues from across the country, from a small institute in Biysk in the Altai to the big campuses of the capitals! Recently I lectured in Veliki Novgorod, next week I will be for 3 days in Krasnjorask and then back to the Pacific National University in Chabarovsk, where I was awarded the task of Professor honoris causa a year ago.
But my capacities are limited - with or without broken bones
🙂 Also for me the day has only 24 hours and we often say good night to each other at our office in St. Petersburg around midnight - I am proud of my exceptional team at the G.O.R.K.I. Furthermore, I enjoy writing articles and tworking on the next book manuscript. And above all I cherish walking the dogs, caring for my four-legged and two-legged small friends and inchallah being back on horse very soon. Just a matter of some months...
Living in a small village in the beautiful Ryazan Oblast, where the woods meet the plains and where I feel at home, I am delighted to interact with the main university of this region. So, I gratefully accepted their invitation to do twice a term a guest lecture.
Let me wish you a fine evening from a small village on Planet Russia - as I keep saying and I mean it! Russia is a truly good universe. I only started discovering it. And I am impressed by the people, by nature and by culture.
