Dr Vladimir Yakunin has been supporting UWCD scholars over the last five years. During the graduation he met with his two current scholars - Aleksandr Grichenko (Russia, UWCD’25) and Elina Mosoian (Russia, UWCD’26) - and an alum Erdni Mangutov (Russia, UWCD’24). Thank you, Dr Yakunin, for your trust and belief in the power of education.
Varda Avetisyan, entrepreneur and owner of Tava restaurant, helped make the festive dinner at our inaugural Alumni Reunion on 1 August a truly memorable occasion. Tava welcomed our alumni with a programme designed to reconnect them with Armenian traditions - from music to lavash-making.
This year, 15 of our students participated in the Fermat Contest, an international mathematics competition organised by the University of Waterloo’s Centre for Education in Mathematics and Computing.
