Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University presented its educational programs at the international educational exhibition "Russian Education. Tashkent 2025." Forty-four leading Russian universities from 22 regions of the country participated.
The event, organized by the Rossotrudnichestvo representative office with the support of the Russian Embassy in Uzbekistan, became the largest platform for presenting Russian higher education in Central Asia. Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Russia to Uzbekistan Alexey Erkhov, Deputy Head of Rossotrudnichestvo Pavel Shevtsov, and Head of the Rossotrudnichestvo representative office Irina Staroselskaya spoke at the opening ceremony.
Pavel Shevtsov emphasized that humanitarian cooperation, including higher education, remains a key element of strategic cooperation between the two countries. Training qualified specialists for Uzbekistan's economy is a priority on the joint agenda.
Irina Staroselskaya urged applicants and their parents to take a responsible approach to choosing a career and emphasized the need to focus on current labor market needs and prospects for personal growth.
Alexey Erkhov noted: "Last year, the exhibition was visited by approximately four thousand people, and today we see this positive trend continuing. Starting in 2024, the number of quotas for Uzbek citizens has been increased to 810."
The SPbPU delegation was represented by Tatyana Sytnikova, Deputy Head of the International Education Department, and Georgy Vasilyanov, research fellow at the Industrial Systems for Streaming Data Processing Laboratory of the SPbPU NTI Center. Tatyana Sytnikova held a number of working meetings and spoke atpress briefing at the Sputnik Uzbekistan press center.
An important aspect of the exhibition was introducing prospective students to study opportunities under Russian Government quotas, which cover preparatory, undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate programs. Visitors to the SPbPU stand received individual consultations on program areas, admission requirements, and employment prospects.
The exhibition featured a "Parents' Meeting in a New Format" and a series of master classes from representatives of Russian universities, which enabled direct dialogue between educational institutions and potential applicants.
Georgy Vasilyanov, a leading expert on the topic of "Mission: Ground Drone," was particularly interesting for exhibition participants. He demonstrated a compact, wheeled, autonomous robot with piloting capabilities. Applicants and students also played a mini-board game called "Build a Drone," equipping the device with various sensors and devices. The master class enjoyed record attendance and generated keen interest among both students and representatives of educational institutions in Uzbekistan.

"We offer joint educational programs with leading universities in Uzbekistan, including the Tashkent State Technical University and the Fergana Polytechnic Institute."
