SPbPU faculty took part in the IX International Scientific and Methodological Conference "Problems of Modern Education in a Technical University," which was held at the P. O. Sukhoi Gomel State Technical University (Belarus).

The plenary session was opened by Natalia Leonova, Associate Professor of the Physics Department at the Institute of Physics and Mathematics at SPbPU. She presented a report on the network collaboration between technical universities and regional schools located in small towns and remote from federal educational institutions. This collaboration not only fosters a motivated flow of applicants prepared for modern scientific challenges but also enhances the prestige of physics and mathematics education among schoolchildren.

Associate Professors of the Physics Department, Victoria Mizina and Tatyana Andreeva, participated in the conference sessions, presenting the results of their scientific and methodological research and innovative approaches to teaching natural sciences. T. A. Andreeva's report was dedicated to a joint project between the Physics Department of the Institute of Physics and Management and the Industrial Stream Data Processing Systems Laboratory of the Advanced Engineering School "Digital Engineering"—a virtual laboratory with digital copies of real devices, the 3D models of which fully replicate the functionality of the originals.

V. V. Mizina presented SPbPU's new master's program, "Physics and Applied Mathematics in Science and Education." The program's uniqueness lies in the fact that master's students are awarded two qualifications (the second being "Pedagogical Education"), significantly expanding graduates' career opportunities. Another key feature of the program is its networking with the A. I. Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia, which allows for the integration of resources between educational institutions to improve the quality of student training.

Conference participants also discussed prospects for cooperation between the Sukhoi Gomel State Technical University and Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, including joint research projects and academic exchanges.
