DEAR FRIENDS!     

   Today, the Lesia Ukrainka East European National University is a powerful educational and research center that enjoys a well-deserved reputation among Ukrainian and foreign higher education institutions. University students receive not only a quality education that meets international standards, but also preserve and multiply the traditions of Alma Mater.

   Our school began its history in 1940. This event became one of the most significant in the history of cultural and social life of Volyn. The institution went from a teacher's institute to a classical university.

   2020 marks the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Lesia Ukrainka Eastern European National University. Over the years, the university has become one of the most successful institutions of higher education in Ukraine with a developed infrastructure. The University rightfully occupies a leading position in Ukraine in the training of highly qualified specialists for various fields of our country.

   The dedicated work of teachers and staff of the university - true professionals in their field - has become the key to its successful development. With great responsibility the staff of the University reaches new frontiers of its professional and pedagogical activity, which is determined by the dynamism and creative search, formation of students' education and culture, rich spiritual world, high level of competence.

   We can rightly be proud of the fact that our university is named after a famous countrywoman, the outstanding poetess Lesya Ukrainka, whose 150th birthday we will celebrate next 2021. We are confident that our achievements will be able to confirm this multifaceted status of the Lesya Ukrainka University.

   I congratulate students, graduates, teachers and the entire staff of the Lesia Ukrainka East European National University on a significant date and wish them professional success for the prosperity of Volyn and Ukraine.
