On October 14, the Polytechnic University successfully held an open day for the "Digital Departments. IT Formula. Polytechnic" project. The event brought together over 400 students interested in obtaining additional IT qualifications.
"Digital Departments" are unique professional retraining programs implemented as part of the federal project "Universities for a Generation of Leaders" of the national project "Youth and Children." The key objective is to equip students in non-core fields with relevant IT competencies that will enhance their competitiveness in the labor market, regardless of their career path.
This academic year, Polytechnic University offers 14 diverse programs covering the most promising areas.
Digital design and artificial intelligence technologies in the design of visual communications
Programming for BIM platforms
Artificial intelligence in construction
Methods for conducting research and digital data processing in problems of the electric power industry using digital twins
Automation of calculations in electrical power systems using the C# programming language
Digital data analysis in economics and management
Bioinformatics
Python: from basics to scientific research
Development of business management solutions based on 1C technologies
Business analyst 1C
Digital Marketing and Social Media
IT consulting
Python. Data analysis in marketing
Digital technologies for design and engineering in mechanical engineering
The event's guests had the opportunity to personally interact with future teachers, representatives of partner companies, and students who had already completed the training. They learned about all the details of the educational process, how internships are organized, and the opportunities offered by a professional retraining diploma.
For example, at the "Development of Business Management Solutions Based on 1C Technologies" and "1C Business Analyst" program booth, partners SoftBalance, Omega, BIA Technologies, and 1C-Rarus-SPb introduced students to the 1C specialist and the career and educational opportunities available to students within the Digital Department partner tracks.
Studying in the project's programs not only provides relevant knowledge but also proven practical experience. Students work on real-world projects that serve as the foundation for their professional portfolios and resumes, and upon completion, they receive a professional retraining diploma conferring an IT qualification.
Training is provided in a convenient online format with ongoing feedback from expert practitioners. Polytechnic University students enjoy a number of special benefits: they can qualify for additional points toward an enhanced scholarship and have their completed course credited toward the mobility module of the "Career Adaptability" track. Furthermore, a diploma from the Digital Department gives graduates an advantage when applying for a master's degree at the Polytechnic University, adding points to the portfolio competition.
This year, we launched 14 practice-oriented programs in collaboration with market leaders so that any student—whether a designer or an energy specialist—can become a specialist with strong IT competencies and dramatically increase their value in the labor market, commented Nadezhda Tsvetkova, head of the Digital Departments project.
Open Day attendees were able to see that Polytechnic's educational programs meet the most current market demands and prepare specialists capable of shaping the future of their industries.
Training at the Digital Departments will begin in November. You can learn more about the programs and register atwebsite.
