On his birthday, Arkady Yurievich told us about his life, plans and ideas.
Tell us how you came to science?
A very important person, Oleh Fedorovich Balatsky, appeared in my life. He was selecting a team. I studied in the technical specialty "Machines and apparatus of chemical production", but in the 2nd year Oleg Fedorovich Balatsky noticed that I play volleyball well and invited me to the sports team, and then to the scientific one.
These were very interesting and useful times! Then I realized that I like economics more than technical specialties. Although I was invited to study for a postgraduate degree at the department I graduated from. But I have been working with Oleg Fedorovich for 3 years and these years have completely changed my direction. It should be noted that the topic on which we conducted research was at the intersection of two areas: ecology and economics and was called: "Economics of Natural Resources and Environment." It is on this topic that the functioning of the Faculty of Economics, and now the Institute of Finance, Economics and Management, began.
