The deadline for accepting applications for new higher education programs for top specialists in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) is approaching its end.
Starting in the 2025–2026 academic year, Polytechnic University will launch training aimed at preparing students to work as ML Engineer, AI Architect, Data Engineer, Data Analyst, and AI Security Engineer. The training of top specialists is being carried out at the initiative of the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation with the participation of the Analytical Center under the Government of the Russian Federation.
These programs are based on modern employer requirements for highly qualified specialists, determined with the participation of dozens of Russian companies – leaders in the field of AI and leading universities.
The training is primarily focused on practical results. From the first years, students will be involved in solving IT business product problems, will be able to study cases and industry experience, participate in project teams, master classes, undergo practical training and mandatory internships at enterprises.
Companies invest in the development and implementation of programs with their own resources. More than 30% of all classroom classes with students will be conducted by invited experts from the industry, leading developers, engineers and researchers. Business representatives will act as mentors, become conductors of advanced knowledge, trends in the development of domestic IT technologies, help to get acquainted with the corporate culture and real requirements for employees.
Training in close cooperation with industry partners and IT companies, including Rostelecom Information Technologies, will not only prepare graduates for a successful professional start, but will also provide an opportunity to apply for leading positions in large industry and technology companies. The knowledge and practical experience gained with modern AI solutions will provide students with subsequent rapid career growth.

For reference.
Since 2025, within the framework of the federal projects "Artificial Intelligence" and "Personnel for Digital Transformation" of the national project "Data Economy and Digital Transformation of the State", the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation, with the participation of the Analytical Center under the Government of the Russian Federation, has been implementing two projects to train students in educational programs for top specialists in the field of information technology and artificial intelligence.
The projects provide training for graduates with advanced competencies in the field of information technology and artificial intelligence: developers of advanced IT solutions, AI models, algorithms, analysts and data researchers. The key condition for the participation of universities in the projects is the active involvement of employers in the training process, including attracting co-financing from businesses.
Within the framework of these projects, in 2025, 36 universities from 20 constituent entities of the Russian Federation will accept more than 6,000 students for training. By 2030, 13.7 thousand students will complete their training.
