On June 26, 2026, a graduation ceremony was held at St. Petersburg State Chemical Pharmaceutical University, attended by A. Nutsalov, general director of the RACUS organization.
This year, the university has graduated 77 specialists in the field of pharmacy. The graduates studied in French and Russian. The event has become a significant milestone for graduates, their families, and the entire academic community.
The solemnity of the ceremony was emphasized by the venue: on the initiative and full funding of the RACUS organization, the gala evening was held at the 5-star LOTTE Hotel in the center of St. Petersburg, a few steps from the Blue Bridge over the Moyka River, the widest bridge in the world (97 meters), which became another symbol of the scale of this special evening.
The graduates were congratulated by Rector I. Narkevich, the vice-rector, and professors of the university. The university management emphasized the contribution of the RACUS organization to the training of foreign specialists and expressed sincere gratitude for the long-term cooperation. Warm words of gratitude were also expressed by the parents, who had traveled thousands kilometers to share this moment with their children.
In his speech, the general director of the RACUS organization, A. Nutsalov, addressed the graduates with sincere words:
“5 years ago, we met you at the airport, you were confused, just starting your journey. Today, we see confident professionals standing before us. 5 years have passed quickly, but each of you has gone through them with dignity—you are really the best, well done! We were trying our best to help you get to the final stage—graduation. You will not be left without a job: you have chosen the right profession. And it's especially nice when mom is a pharmacist as well as her daughter. It creates a dynasty of pharmacists, which makes it even more rewarding.”
Completing their studies has opened up new opportunities for graduates: specialists are ready to work in pharmaceutical companies, research centers, and pharmacies around the world.
