Dear friends!

I am happy to be part of a long and glorious history of RUT (MIIT). I was an 80’s student, getting a de-gree in railway exploitation.

Whatever my job was, the knowledge and skills that I have obtained at RUT(MIIT) were indispensable. I am thankful for my destiny and I am proud to be an alumnus of such a prestigious institution.
