One of Southeast Asia's largest education exhibitions, the 34th International Exhibition on Education and Training (IIETE) 2026, has concluded in Jakarta. The event, held since 1992, once again brought together leading universities, educational organizations, and companies in the fields of educational technology and vocational training.
This is the second exhibition in Indonesia for the Polytechnic University. Last time, a representative delegation from the university arrived in the country to conduct Polytechnic Days in Indonesia and participation in an educational exhibition in Surabaya. The exhibition in Jakarta served as a platform for showcasing the capabilities of Russian higher education. Polytechnic University was represented by Evgeniya Suvorova, Lead Specialist in International Student Services, and Zhanna Trunkova, Lead Advertising Specialist at the Center for International Recruitment and Communications.
Over the course of four days, thousands of Indonesian applicants, students, and their parents visited the stands of Russian universities. Engineering, IT, and economics programs were of particular interest to visitors traditionally focused on obtaining a high-quality education abroad. The Polytechnic University's participation in the IIETE exhibition, which annually attracts tens of thousands of visitors, allows the university to directly engage with motivated applicants from Indonesia and the region.
The business program culminated in a presentation session, "Explore Study in Russia: Study, Scholarships, and Campus Life," dedicated to educational opportunities in Russia. Sergey Tolchenov, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation to the Republic of Indonesia, addressed the participants with a welcoming address. He emphasized that educational cooperation today forms a solid foundation for the development of bilateral relations between the countries.
Nikita Shilikov, head of the Rossotrudnichestvo representative office in Indonesia, spoke in detail about the admissions process at Russian universities, including under the Russian Government quota.
"Russia and Indonesia are currently experiencing a truly historic moment in the development of bilateral relations. We are witnessing a dynamic rapprochement between our countries, strengthening humanitarian and academic ties, and the signing of an agreement on the mutual recognition of diplomas and academic degrees. This opens up entirely new opportunities for Indonesian youth to obtain an education in Russia and further their professional growth," noted Nikita Shilikov.
Participation in the 34th IIETE exhibition strengthened Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University's position as one of the key Russian universities attractive to international students from the Asia-Pacific region.
