V.N. KARAZIN KHARKIV NATIONAL UNIVERSITY DURING THE FULL-SCALE RUSSIAN MILITARY INVASION OF UKRAINE
Abstract
The relevance of political science research into the problem of the functioning of a classical university in the conditions of a full-scale Russian military invasion of Ukraine is being substantiated. Thus, not only the corresponding losses of the university that were caused by the military are analyzed, but also its place and role in the system of training multidisciplinary professional personnel in these conditions. It is noted that this became possible not only thanks to the professional actions of the leadership and members of the university's workforce, but also the powerful assistance of partners and friends of the university. With the support of the Ministry of Education of Ukraine and the friendly assistance of the National University «Yuri Kondratyuk Poltava Polytechnic» that it was possible to ensure the creation of a temporary coordination center of Karazin University in Poltava and to deploy logistical capabilities for receiving victims from Kharkiv. It was emphasized that thanks to international assistance, the Karazins received free access to the resources of the «Research4Life» platform. The training course «Introduction to Machine Learning» was launched in a distance format. It is noted that postgraduate students and teachers of the university regularly participate in international theoretical and applied scientific events - summer schools, conferences, study visits, and are also successfully published in international scientific publications, including those indexed in Scopus. And this has already become a scientific tradition of the university, which has already made and continues to make a significant contribution to national and world science, the development of culture, sports and education. There are grounds for an optimistic prognosis for the further development of educational and scientific activities of Kharkiv National University in the future.
