AzTU employees and students watched the play "A Lamp Burning in Yerevan"

The Trade Union Committee (TUC) and the Student Trade Union Committee (STUC) of Azerbaijan Technical University (AzTU) are implementing various projects for the effective organization of the leisure time of employees and students. Within the framework of the next project, employees and students watched the play “A Lamp Burning in Yerevan” staged by the Jafar Jabbarly Yerevan State Azerbaijan Drama Theater based on the one-act mystical historical play “A Lamp Burning in Yerevan” by the prominent poet-playwright, public figure Hidayat Orujov. The work, which is based on the history of the lamp entrusted to Ravangulu Khan, the governor of the Yerevan Fortress, by the founder and first ruler of the Azerbaijani Safavid state, Shah Ismail Khatai, as a symbol of eternity, deeply penetrates the anatomy of the genocide and deportations committed by Armenian nationalists against our people. The historical work “The Lamp Lit in Yerevan” written by the Azerbaijani writer Sultan Oguz, who lived and worked in Yerevan towards the end of the Soviet era (perceived as the author’s prototype), on this subject, infuriates the rabid Armenian nationalists who are obsessed with the national existence of our people in Western Azerbaijan to such an extent that they set a tempting trap for him. The enemies resort to a trick to discredit and eliminate the writer who portrayed the truth in a historical novel because they have taken the lamp lit by Shah Ismail in Yerevan as their own, and present the work for the highest award of the former Soviet state. The militant artist opposes this plan in order to thwart the intentions of the enemies and save the historical truth, and refuses to accept the award. Throughout the play, the spirit of Shah Ismail appears repeatedly and calls on our people to be vigilant and militant against the treachery of the enemies. The devilish role of Armenian women in the open and secret aggressions against our national existence is reflected in the play with subtle touches. At the end of the performance, the lamp extinguished in Yerevan is solemnly lit on stage as a symbol of the defeat of Armenia's treacherous policy. It should be noted that about 200 employees and about 300 students participated in the performance, which was presented on the stage of the Azerbaijan State Academic Russian Drama Theater. AzTU HIK and THIK will continue to organize such events in the future.

Ecological thinking starts at school – another group of students joins the green mission at AzTU

The next support for the plastic waste recycling and filament production initiative for 3D printers implemented by the MGP Group operating under the Lifelong Learning School of Azerbaijan Technical University (AzTU) came from the 8th grade students of the Sattar Bahlulzadeh Foreign Languages-Focused Gymnasium. As part of the visit, the students brought the plastic bottles they collected to AzTU and handed them over to the MGP Workshop. The students were accompanied by their class teachers Laman Babayeva and Ofelia Hazarkhanova, who also teaches biology and steam. During the meeting, the schoolchildren watched the process of sorting, processing, and converting plastic waste into filament for 3D printers. MGP engineers provided the students with detailed information about modern technologies, software, and production stages used in this field, answering their numerous questions. The students were introduced not only to the ecological project, but also to UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) technologies. They were shown engineering projects, aerodynamic design principles and control systems implemented in this area. This initiative serves to increase interest in engineering and technology among schoolchildren, as well as to form a conscious approach to environmental protection. The participation of the Sattar Bahlulzadeh Foreign Languages ​​​​Oriented Gymnasium in the project is an important step in terms of developing the ecological thinking and technological skills of the younger generation from an early age. As a result of the projects, students realize that protecting the environment is not only a duty, but also a creative process combined with innovation and technology. Plastic waste recycling is not just a technical process - it also becomes an important step towards the formation of a new perspective in the minds of young people, becoming responsible and future-oriented citizens.
