Friends of YSU

Friends of Yerevan State University Foundation is a non-profit initiative established by YSU Alumni and Friends to mobilize the resources of American Armenians who believe in the pivotal role of Yerevan State University in Armenia's development.

We bring together American Armenian professionals across diverse fields to support educational, research, and infrastructural projects at YSU. Our efforts are dedicated to enhancing teaching and research activities and promoting collaboration between YSU and US-based partner institutions. Additionally, we assist YSU in providing educational and research services to the Armenian Diaspora in the United States and beyond.

“YSU is the largest Armenian university with an extensive alumni network. It offers a wide range of educational programs, and its graduates contribute significantly to all sectors of Armenian society, from schools and IT companies to politics and culture. YSU alumni, as dedicated and highly educated professionals, are integral to advancing the country. Therefore, ensuring the effective and sustainable development of YSU is crucial for Armenia's overall progress. By supporting YSU, you are supporting Armenia”.

— Dr. Hovhannes Hovhannisyan, YSU Rector
