The prestigious Club of the Rectors of Europe (CRE) has sought the Olympic Movement experience and educational expertise of Russian International Olympic University (RIOU) Rector Professor Lev Belousov by making him a member of their international community at a ceremony in Oxford, England.

The CRE is dedicated to furthering communication and the exchange of ideas between rectors, deans and senior academics throughout the world. It was created at the initiative of the scientific community and its membership is more than one hundred strong, hailing from 30 countries around the world.

Professor Belousov has helped build RIOU into a thriving legacy initiative of the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games which trains future managers for the sports industry, especially the Olympic Movement. The university targets international students and, at present, students from 17 different countries and 21 different regions of the Russian Federation are studying on its flagship course: the Master of Sports Administration (MSA).

The invitation to become a member of the CRE was in recognition of Professor Belousov’s personal contribution to enhancing the integration of science, culture and education, raising the role of universities in all spheres of human activity, as well as fostering the intellectual development of modern society.

Professor Belousov said:

"It is a real honour to become a member of the Club of the Rectors of Europe and it means that RIOU’s influence and network of contacts is spreading wider. By taking up membership with this club I am committing to meeting the high standards which fellow members expect and the high standards which I demand of myself as an educator.

"RIOU’s international outlook is aligned with the CRE and we share similar key principles which drive our activities, such as the importance of educational integration and self-management."

As a CRE member, Professor Belousov will be involved in the work of independent academic committees with various areas of expertise, which aim to consolidate the efforts of academics, researchers and business organisations in facilitating research, education, and innovation.
