Kazan Institute for Agriculture and Silviculture was established in 1922. Following a variety of transformations made in the institute, the Forestry and Ecology Faculty was restored in 2007. Since that time the Institute and the Ministry of Forestry began to cooperate closely and extensively. Here the future specialists of the forest industry are trained; the main topics of research works for the forestry are developed.
Addressing to students, Rais Gumerov noted: “Education is a foundation for all activities of any person. The person’s achievements in work and life depend on how stable that foundation is”. He wished students and teachers to succeed in studies and to have colorful and interesting student life.
