Dear colleagues! Dear friends!

On behalf of the team of Herzen University, I would like to assure you that my colleagues and I attach very serious importance to the security of our entire university community – our students, faculty and staff.

The work carried out by the university for the preservation and development of a comfortable and safe educational environment is carried out on a daily basis and has various forms and directions.

First and foremost, Herzen University provides round-the-clock protection of public order on the entire territory, at all the university facilities. A system of face recognition of people whose photos are contained in the database of Herzen University is also used.

Security officers control campus entry, vehicle entry, and perform other important security tasks.

All together, these measures strengthen the security contour of our university, provide necessary conditions for calm and comfortable study and work.

Along with the work to ensure the internal security circuit, my colleagues and I are in constant contact with representatives of the St. Petersburg Government – the administration of relevant committees and departments.

Creating conditions for a safe life for all the citizens of St. Petersburg is an everyday job of many city services and government agencies – the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry for Civil Defence, Emergencies and Elimination of Consequences of Natural Disasters and a number of other state agencies. I am sure that all these measures bring the expected result – St. Petersburg has been and remains one of the best places for Russian and international students to study in Russia.

St. Petersburg is a safe, comfortable and convenient place to live, work and study.
