Laboratory of Sociology in Education and Science: our expedition 2019.

Laboratory of Sociology in Education and Science has just held its 10th student expedition. Student expeditions are a kind of tradition for the laboratory. It started in 2006 from our trip to Sosnovo (Leningrad oblast). Back then this was a unique experience for HSE. Right now it is quite standard and is probably the most popular form of scientific work in different campuses and at different faculties. Our university is part of the “Re-discover Russia” program, which sponsors such expeditions to different regions of Russia on a competitive basis. This year the Foundation for Educational Innovation supported 68 applications.
