Solving the problems of Volga-Caspian basin with a new Tempus project on "Advanced M.Sc. Program in Ecology for Volgo-Caspian Basin"

The preparation of the project proposal began after the meeting of representatives of four Russian universities (Samara, Saratov, Volgograd, Astrakhan,) organized by Volgograd STU on 25 February 2009. All participants support the idea to apply with such proposal and ask Stuttgart university to coordinate the consortium. All partners are well known to each other for more than ten years taking part in several joint federal and international projects including such Tempus-Tacis JEPs as 25020-2004, 23094-2002 and 10356-1997.
