During the lectures, students gained insights into scholarly perspectives on the history, culture, religion, literature, and linguistic heritage of Eastern peoples. They also had the opportunity to engage in discussions with international experts and exchange views on topics of interest.
The delegation members also familiarised themselves with the activities of the university’s departments and research centres, its educational process, and ongoing research projects. Meetings with academic staff provided an opportunity to exchange expertise, discuss the advancement of research activities, and explore promising areas for future cooperation.
