KHACHATUR ABOVYAN ARMENIAN STATE PEDAGOGICAL UNIVERSITY

On June 28, the Faculty of Art Education of Armenian State Pedagogical University hosted an impressive and symbolic event. The relatives of Azhdahak Kirakosyan, an ASPU student taking a distance-learning course in Fine Arts who fell in the second war in Artsakh (in 2020), were handed over a document confirming Azhdahak’s outstanding academic performance at ASPU.

Upon hearing the news about the war in Artsakh, Azhdahak Kirakosyan voluntarily left for the front line. Unfortunately, he did not return home…

Today, Azhdahak would be one of the happiest graduates of ASPU… But he preferred love and devotion to the homeland and sacrificed his life for the country, for tomorrow, for the sake of young people he was called to educate.

The ceremony was attended by the relatives of the fallen hero, his lecturers, and the dean of the Faculty of Art Education who was supposed to hand over the graduate certificate to Azhdahak. "Alas!"
The document testifying to Azhdahak’s academic achievements without the information of the past two years was handed over to the hero's sister, Arusik Kirakosyan, who is also a graduate of ASPU (2021-2022 academic year).
