Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University hosted a dialogue between industry leaders and young people as part of the 22nd scientific and technical conference for the electronics industry, "My Career in Electronics," aimed at attracting young people to work in the industry.
The event was organized by the conference operator, the Design Center Consortium (DCC). Its key objective is to coordinate Russian electronics industry participants to implement the national strategy for the development of the electronics industry through 2030 and ensure long-term leadership. The moderator of the meeting was Ekaterina Pleskova, Chief Analyst of the DCC's Expert and Analytical Department.
At the event, representatives of electronics industry companies addressed the students and spoke about their companies and career prospects for young professionals.
Olga Litvinova, Deputy CEO of the Aquarius Group of Companies; Dmitry Zaretsky, CEO of NEK.TECH LLC; Evgeny Savchenko, Chairman of the Microwave Electronics Working Group of the Council for the Development of the Electronics Industry of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation; and Zakhar Kondrashov, Secretary General of the Industrial Cluster "Consortium of Robotics and Intelligent Control Systems."
Alexander Korotkov, Director of the Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications at SPbPU, also participated in the meeting. He briefed the students and guests on the institute's structure and graduate program opportunities. He also focused on the SPbPU Integrated Systems Design Center. Participants learned about the center's latest developments and their advantages over similar programs.
A design center is a unique structural component of any institute. Developing innovative designs and products requires a very high level of theoretical training. But practical knowledge related to operating equipment is also essential, of course. Therefore, design centers, which offer that perfect blend of practical and theoretical skills, play a crucial role in training specialists, noted Alexander Korotkov.
The meeting with specialists from the electronics industry generated great interest among the students. After their presentations, each speaker was asked numerous questions about working at the company and its products.
At the end of the event, all participants were able to test their knowledge of electronics by answering quizzes. The questions varied in difficulty. Based on the quiz's results, 10 winners were selected and received commemorative prizes from the organizers.
