I did not study, I have no diploma.".[12]

Governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast

On 14 May 2012, Kuyvashev became the acting Governor of the Sverdlovsk Oblast.[16][17]

On 24 May 2012, Russian President Vladimir Putin submitted to the Legislative Assembly of the Sverdlovsk Oblast the candidacy of Yevgeny Kuyvashev to empower the governor of the Sverdlovsk Oblast.[18] The candidacy was supported by a majority of votes of the members of parliaments of the Legislative Assembly of the Sverdlovsk Oblast, and on May 29, 2012, Kuyvashev officially took office as the regional governor.

During the governorship of Kuyvashev, the system of government bodies of the Sverdlovsk Oblast was changed, repeatedly making amendments to the Charter of the region. In July 2012, on the initiative of Kuyvashev, the post of vice-governor was introduced, but already in December of the next year, this post was abolished.[23] In 2016, the post of regional prime minister was abolished with the assignment of his duties to the governor.[24] Thus, by the beginning of 2017, Kuyvashev became both the governor and the head of the regional government.

In 2012, at the suggestion of Kuyvashev, he sent to the Administration of the President of Russia, a working group was created in the Ministry of Health to consider the issue of compulsory licensing of the activities of all organizations involved in the rehabilitation of drug addicts.[25] In his opinion, such licensing is a matter of citizens' safety.[26] At this time, on his behalf in the region, a state rehabilitation center "Ural without drugs" was created.[27] The decree on its creation was signed on 3 July 2012.

On 18 September 2016, Kuyvashev took part in the elections to the Legislative Assembly of the Sverdlovsk Oblats, heading the list of the United Russia party. After the elections, he gave up his deputy mandate, without starting to act as a deputy.[28]

At the end of 2016, the film director Nikita Mikhalkov criticized the Yeltsin Center, which opened in November 2015,[29] with the financial support of the authorities of the Sverdlovsk Oblast.[30] Kuyvashev said that he was proud to have taken part in the creation of the Yeltsin Center, and said that he was ready to personally lead Mikhalkov on a tour of it.[29]

At the end of March 2017, Kuyvashev found advantages in the decision of the Federal Minister Denis Manturov to transfer the international arms exhibition Russia Arms Expo from Nizhny Tagil to the Patriot park in Moscow Oblast.[31]

According to the governor, this event "will become an incentive for the implementation of new breakthrough initiatives in the Urals".[31] The former governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast, Eduard Rossel (on whose initiative this exhibition was founded in 1999) has of a different opinion, who asked to keep the Russia Arms Expo in Nizhny Tagil and turned to Kuyvashev about the exhibition.[31][32]

Aksana Panova, the former editor-in-chief of the Ural Internet agency Ura.ru, who was accused at one time in a number of criminal cases, called Kuyvashev the "customer" of her prosecution.[37]

Znak.com noted in 2013 that Kuyvashev, despite the regional budget cuts and economic difficulties, increased funding for "PR": in 2013, 1.136 billion rubles were allocated to the media from the budget (of which 0.5 billion was for the purchase of an unfinished television tower in Yekaterinburg), while in 2012 only 368 million rubles were spent for these purposes.[39] Критику издания вызвал также тот факт, что значительная часть трат на СМИ из бюджета области непрозрачна.[39] The publication was also criticized by the fact that a significant part of the expenditures on the media from the regional budget is not transparent.[39] In October 2013, opposition deputies criticized the authorities of the Sverdlovsk Oblast for the fact that the bulk of media spending from the budget of the Sverdlovsk region goes to the "Regional newspaper" and the OTV television channel.[39] The private media also get some. For example, by order of Kuyvashev, 20 million rubles were transferred to the Malina project.[39]
