The SberLab-NSU Summer School is held for the fifth year in a row and lasts for five weeks. The school is aimed at students of IT departments of Novosibirsk State University. During this time, participants solve real problems and projects related to modern technologies and industry trends, from web development and digital design to machine learning.

This year, 23 teams took part in the Summer School, presenting their projects in various areas. Both classic web development and front-end solutions in the field of digital design and programs that translate text written in a programming language into machine codes (Editor's note: compilers) were demonstrated.

Some of the Summer School projects have been in development for a long time, for example, a project dedicated to the identification of Amur tigers (Ed. note). Tigers. IO— a service that provides tools for convenient cataloging of animals and graphic interaction with their images), has been in development for two years. The Aqua Trainer software, presented at the SberLab-NSU conference last year, was improved as part of this year's school. They decided to add a system to the application for sports trainers that could track spinal defects (if any) from images and send the results to doctors.

— By the end of the training, students gain invaluable experience and significantly improve their skills. Over the course of a month, they have the opportunity to try out various modern technologies depending on the project. The Summer School works according to the same principles as work in large technology companies: daily planning meetings, the need to be at work for eight hours a day, planning sprints, in general, a lot of things. Naturally, based on the results of the school, we select students for practical training for the new academic year. Students can write their diplomas on the topics of the projects they are developing and receive a stipend for working in the laboratory, — says Artem Tregubov, Director of the Summer School, Industrial Associate Professor at NSU.

Every year, the school's pool of partners expands. As the head of the regional office of SberTech in Novosibirsk Denis Kolodny notes, this year SberTech and SberZdorovye joined the project.

All participants of the event received certificates.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On August 6, the final of the international competition SynBio Challenge was held in Shenzhen (Guangdong Province, China). The team Faculty of Natural Sciences (FNS) of NSU GeneMeow won a gold medal in the Synthetic Cell category. The team solved the problem of developing a DNA sequence no longer than 140 bp, which ensures high expression of the green fluorescent protein. Two more teams from Russia, representing Moscow State University and Pirogov University, became winners in the Protein Design track.

The GeneMeow team included six students of the NSU Natural Sciences Department who completed their 3rd year in the Biology program: Valeria Romanova, Ekaterina Bolotova, Nail Bikeev, Nikita Ivanov, Ulyana Borovikova and Dmitry Kurbatsky. GeneMeow was formed from two strong teams that had previously participated in the Biotournament and achieved high results.

Nail Bikeev, a member of the NSU GeneMeow team, spoke about preparation and participation in the competition:

— We learned about the competition in May and spent a long time choosing the track we wanted to participate in. The Synthetic cell track seemed to us to be a more interesting and challenging task. We needed to create a DNA sequence that could increase the yield of the target protein, in our case, Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP), which glows a beautiful green color. In a short time, we had to develop a concept for the sequence, review many articles on the topic, highlight the necessary ones, and check the functionality of the design using bioinformatics methods. The trip to China and the presentation of the work at the international level was the best motivation, since we managed to assemble our sequence and send it! At the Olympiad, we met many guys from other countries: Japan, Thailand, and, of course, China, and also met colleagues from Moscow State University and the Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University. Such events are very inspiring, showing how many like-minded people there are all over the world.

The final was held in the format of a festival, where each team presented their solutions to the problems at the selection stage. In addition, the organizers of the competition synthesized the DNA sequences proposed by the participants, inserted them into plasmids with a gene of a fluorescent protein, which is used to check the DNA sequence, and during the festival visualized the synthesized sequences, compared which team's glowed brighter. The brightness of the glow became one of the criteria for assessing the work of each team.

Sergey Sedykh, PhD, Senior Lecturer Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies NSU, a judge for the SynBio Challenge, commented:

— It was the first time I was a judge at such an international event. The Russian teams showed themselves very well. Our guys from NSU demonstrated that the field of synthetic biology and life sciences in general is actively developing at Novosibirsk University, both at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and at the Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies, where a new Master's program "Industrial Pharmacy". I have no doubt that next year the team from Novosibirsk will include students of this new program. Our guys have confirmed by their own example that the NSU motto "We will not make you smarter, we will teach you to think" works at the international level as well.

The competition is organized by Shenzhen University of High Technology. A total of 1,800 students registered to participate in the competition this year, of which about 1,000 participants from six countries — China, Russia, Japan, Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia — reached the finals.

The participation of the NSU team in the international competition was financed within the framework of the academic mobility project of the Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies of NSU Priority 2030 programs.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The International Mathematical Olympiad is the most important student competition in mathematics in the world. IMC-2025 was held from July 28 to August 3 in Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria. More than 430 students from leading universities around the world took part in it. For NSU, this is the 12th Olympiad, and every year the university students take honorable places in it.

This year, Novosibirsk State University was represented at IMC by: Valery Pyatkin, Stanislav Yelovatsky, Timofey Vasiliev with Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics and Ivan Frolov with Faculty of Natural Sciences.

The tasks for the mathematical Olympiad are selected at a jury meeting. Students' work is assessed according to the presented criteria by team leaders, professors and associate professors of universities.

Based on the results of the individual competition, the NSU team received four medals: two gold, one silver and one bronze. The team leaders are Anatoly Albertovich Ruban, associate professor of the Department of Mathematical Analysis of the Mechanics and Mathematics Faculty of NSU, and three-time IMC participant Danila Sergeevich Belousov.

– I have been participating in IMC since my first year, this was my third trip. The Olympiad was held in the IMO format. We solved 5 problems every day for two days. The problems are non-standard and quite different from those we solve in Russia. The Olympiad is taking place in a somewhat familiar place, the city of Blagoevgrad, which is located in Bulgaria. Students from all over the world, from South America to China, come there. I was surprised by the number of Russian students, about 15% were from Russia: they represented Moscow universities, St. Petersburg State University and NSU. In my free time from solving problems, it was nice to talk to everyone and take a walk, – shared my impressions Stanislav Yelovatsky, a 4th-year student of the Mechanics and Mathematics Faculty of NSU.

In the team competition, NSU students beat the teams from HSE and MSU, taking 15th place – this is the best result in the last 10 years of the university's participation in the International Mathematical Olympiad.

Congratulations to the guys on their excellent result!

Fontanka.ru conducted a study of the results of the admission campaign to St. Petersburg universities under the quota for participants in the special military operation and their children. An analysis of data from enrollment orders and competition lists showed that the first place in terms of the number of those enrolled is occupied by Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University.

In 2025, 252 people were admitted to SPbPU under a separate quota, which is 1.7 times more than last year. 104 of them were admitted without entrance examinations, which indicates the significant support provided by the university to this category of applicants.

Polytechnic University ranks first in St. Petersburg and fifth in Russia in terms of the number of applicants enrolled in this category. But what is important here is not the numbers, but the development of an individual educational trajectory and support for such students throughout the entire period of study, noted Vice-Rector for Educational Activities Lyudmila Pankova.

Such a high demand for educational programs of our university speaks, first of all, about the level of trust of applicants and their families in the faculty of the Polytechnic University. After all, they have an important task – to ensure a high level of training taking into account the current background of the applicant, to analyze progress, to provide opportunities for development, that is, to provide a comprehensive individual approach, which is quite a serious challenge on such a scale. We strive to provide equal opportunities for obtaining a quality education to all our students, supporting them in various life situations, – commented Vice-Rector for Human Resources Policy Maria Vrublevskaya.

This year, 2,028 people entered St. Petersburg universities under a separate quota for SVO participants and their children, which is almost twice as many as last year.

Polytechnic University Rector Andrey Rudskoy spoke to TASS about the 2025 admissions campaign

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

SPbPU Rector Andrey Rudskoy took part in a press conference at TASS dedicated to summing up the results of the 2025 admissions campaign. The press conference was also attended by MGIMO Rector Anatoly Torkunov, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology Rector Dmitry Livanov, Bauman Moscow State Technical University Rector Mikhail Gordin, Plekhanov Russian University of Economics Acting Rector Alexey Nikulin, ITMO National Research University Rector Vladimir Vasiliev, and Yeltsin Ural Federal University Acting Rector Ilya Obabkov.

Andrey Rudskoy joined the press conference at TASS online. He said that this year, Polytechnic University received 6,595 budget places — the most in the Northwestern Federal District. More than 145 thousand applications were submitted for the budget for bachelor's and specialist's degrees. As in the previous year, applicants sent 99% of documents through the State Services portal, including for master's and postgraduate studies.

The most popular areas of study this year were nuclear power engineering and thermal physics – 59 applications per place, thermal power engineering and thermal engineering – 44 applications, automation of technological processes and production – 36 applications. Demand for IT specialties remains at the level of 60 applications. In general, the competition for the budget was 33 applications per place.

252 students were enrolled under a separate quota for participants and children of participants of the SVO – 1.7 times more than last year. In this indicator, Polytechnic University ranks fifth among Russian universities.

The number of winners and prize winners of Olympiads among Polytechnic University applicants has increased by one and a half times this year. Probably, the fact that the university revised its support measures for talented students played a role in this.

In his speech, Andrey Rudskoy touched upon the specifics of targeted admission: Unfortunately, as in the previous year, the customers of targeted training posted their proposals on the portal “Work in Russia”, but did not participate in the approval of candidates, or even, perhaps, meetings with them. This affected the number of students accepted. By the way, most of them responded to the proposals of those industrial partners who worked with applicants – Rosatom and the Petersburg Tractor Plant.

The average USE score for the general competition has increased this year and is 84.2. The passing score for all areas of training has exceeded 200. Andrey Rudskoy noted an increase in the passing score for engineering areas such as technosphere safety, technical physics, metallurgy, mechatronics and robotics.

A major role was played by the “Petrovskaya Wave” system, introduced for the first time in the Polytechnic’s admissions campaign, which guarantees admission to applicants who have achieved the passing score set by the admissions committee.

Speaking about the admission campaign for foreign students, the rector of SPbPU specified that more than 2,000 applications for training in the main programs and another 650 for the preparatory faculty were received. Of these, 430 applications from foreign citizens were selected under the quota of the Government of the Russian Federation, the rest will study under a contract. Among the foreign applicants, there are 240 winners of the Open Doors Olympiad. It is planned to enroll about 1,600 foreign students from 70 countries in the first year.

"The work of the Polytechnic representative office in Shanghai and our two joint institutes with Xi'an Technological University and Jiangsu Normal University help attract applicants from China," says Andrey Rudskoy. "And cooperation with Slavic universities in Belarus, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and coordination of the work of the Russian-African Network University consortium allow us to cover these countries as well. Therefore, the Polytechnic expects to maintain the share of foreign students at 18%, which is equal to five thousand people."

Admission to fee-based education continues until August 15, with 47,000 applications already received (13,000 more than a year ago). At the same time, as Andrey Rudskoy said, the Polytechnic University has reduced admission to fee-based education in the humanities and closed distance learning, meaning that the increase is due to engineering areas of training.

Admission to the Master's program also continues until August 11; 25 thousand applications have now been submitted by 5 thousand applicants.

And on September 1, the Polytechnic expects an increase of 12,000 students.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The priority stage of enrollment for bachelor's and specialist's programs has passed at the Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University. 852 first-year students can already proudly call themselves polytechnics and find themselves in the lists of those enrolled using a unique code or personal account ID. The lists are available on the website "Admission 2025".

The first main heroes of the 2025 admission campaign were the winners and prize winners of the All-Russian School Olympiad and Olympiads from the list of the Russian Council of School Olympiads, as well as applicants admitted under quotas. A record number of people have already been enrolled in the Polytechnic University and its branch based on the results of the Olympiads – 185 applicants. In addition, 292 people were enrolled under targeted admission and 375 under a special and separate quota.

I decided to apply to Polytechnic University back in the 9th grade — after participating in the Engineering League and joint programs with the Academy of Talents of St. Petersburg. This helped me understand what I wanted to do. I had no doubts when choosing a university, and the support of talented applicants this year only strengthened my choice! Taking a prize place in the Olympiad, of course, was not easy, but I prepared hard: I attended clubs, solved Olympiad tasks from previous years, participated in various hackathons and real-time programming competitions, and also completed a two-year course from Yandex Lyceum. And it was worth it — it gives confidence when applying. Even guys with high scores were not competitors for me. I am looking forward to an intense study, a sought-after profession, and a cool student community. Polytechnic University is a place where the best gather! — shared his impressions a first-year student of the Computer Security program, winner of the Gazprom industry Olympiad for schoolchildren in computer science Savva Lastochkin.

Among those admitted without exams is a graduate of the Natural Science Lyceum of SPbPU Andrey Kapustyanik. He became a prize winner of the final stage of the All-Russian School Olympiad in Technology and was among the few applicants admitted to the Polytechnic University without entrance examinations.

The admissions campaign continues – on August 7, the lists of those admitted through the main competition for the main budget places will be published.

We congratulate the newly minted polytechnicians and wish them a vibrant student life, scientific discoveries and professional victories!

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The final of the international SynBio Challenge competition will be held in Shenzhen (Guangdong Province, China) on August 6. The competition is organized by the Shenzhen University of High Technology. A total of 1,800 students registered to participate in the competition, of which about 1,000 participants from six countries of the world – China, Russia, Japan, Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia – made it to the final. Our country is represented at these competitions by only two teams – from the Biological Faculty of Moscow State University and Faculty of Natural Sciences (FNS) of NSURussian teams are taking part in the competition for the first time.

The GeneMeow team included six students of the NSU Natural Sciences Department who completed their 3rd year in Biology: Valeria Romanova, Ekaterina Bolotova, Nail Bikeev, Nikita Ivanov, Ulyana Borovikova and Dmitry Kurbatsky. GeneMeow was formed from two strong teams that had previously participated in the Biotournament, won prizes in its regional stage and received a second-degree diploma at the final in 2024. Participation in the Biotournament allowed them to gain experience in solving interdisciplinary problems in biology, publicly defending ideas to experts and project work. The students joined forces to jointly solve problems at the intersection of biology and engineering.

All the guys from the NSU team regularly participate in student Olympiads and are engaged in scientific activities at the institutes of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, combining their studies with research and educational activities.

The selection round of the competition was held in absentia in April-May; participants were offered a choice of several problems, one of which the students had to solve.

— In the SynBio Challenge, we solved the problem of developing a DNA sequence no longer than 140 bp, providing high expression of GFP (green fluorescent protein) in E. coli. It seemed familiar and interesting to us, since we had already studied molecular biology at the university, have laboratory experience and are well acquainted with the methods of genetic engineering. This gave us confidence in our abilities and the desire to apply our knowledge in practice, — said the captain of the GeneMeow team, Valeria Romanova.

— We conducted a bioinformatics analysis of regulatory elements, studied relevant literature and modern approaches to increasing gene expression. Based on this, we developed an optimized design that includes strong promoter (a region of a gene that triggers the synthesis of mRNA and then protein) and post-transcriptional (regulatory) elements and is aimed at efficient expression of GFP. Such developments are relevant for medicine, biotechnology, agriculture and fundamental research, — said GeneMeow team member Ulyana Borovikova.

The final will be held in person and will be a festival, where each team will present their solutions to the problems at the selection stage. In addition, the organizers of the competition synthesized the DNA sequences proposed by the participants, inserted them into plasmids with a fluorescent protein gene, which is used to check the DNA sequence, and during the festival they will visualize the synthesized sequences, compare which team has them glowing more strongly. The brightness of the glow will be one of the criteria for assessing the work of each team.

— NSU has historically developed leading scientific schools in synthetic biology and bioinformatics. This year, the Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies is opening a Master's degree program in Industrial Pharmacy, where students will work on solving specific problems of industrial partners. At one time, the iGEM-Siberia team became the first team from outside Moscow to take part in the world's largest competition of genetically engineered machines, iGEM-2021. This year, our Chinese colleagues invited us to take part in SynBio Challenge, an international competition of comparable scale. I hope that the team will return with a victory; the guys have been working on the project for a long time and will present a poster presentation at the festival. The development of biomedical technologies is a global trend. I am very glad that we always find support for students' initiatives at our university! — commented Sergey Sedykh, PhD, Senior Lecturer at the NSU Natural Sciences Department, and judge of the SynBio Challenge competition.

The participation of the NSU team in the international competition is financed within the framework of the academic mobility project of the Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies of NSU Priority 2030 programs.

The Polytechnic University summed up the results of the competition “Best Teacher in the Eyes of Students-2025”

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

At the initiative of the student community, the Polytechnic University traditionally held the “Best Teacher through the Eyes of Students” competition from June 5 to July 12.

The competition has been held at the university since 2021 and this year it celebrated a small anniversary – five years. As usual, students nominate teachers for participation in the competition who, from their point of view, best meet such approved criteria as "Personal interest in the subject", "Openness to everything new", "Pedagogical excellence", "Culture of interaction with students", "Commitment to the traditions of the Polytechnic University", etc. However, this year, only graduating students who received their diplomas this year could vote for teachers. For each of the nine criteria of the competitive selection, the students had to nominate only one teacher.

"Our university is changing, and the rules for the "Best Teacher in the Eyes of Students" competition are changing along with it," explained SPbPU Vice-Rector for Educational Activities Lyudmila Pankova. "In this anniversary year for the competition, it was important for us to find out which teachers remain in the hearts of graduates leaving the university on their way to a new, big life."

Perhaps the most important change in the rules of the competition was that student voting was transferred to the Telegram bot "Digital Pelican" of the Trade Union of Students of SPbPU.

"We think it is important that our students have taken responsibility not only for developing the evaluation criteria for the competition, but also for its implementation," noted Elena Zima, Director of the Education Quality Center. "This significant step in improving the competition procedure will increase the university students' confidence in the competition results and their involvement, which will undoubtedly contribute to improving the overall culture of education quality at the Polytechnic."

494 Polytechnic graduates took part in the voting. The winners and prize winners were 10 teachers from seven institutes: GI, IBSiB, IKNK, IPMEiT, IFiM, IFKSiT, IE. All of them will receive cash prizes. The results of the competition are also taken into account in the rating of the faculty. The award ceremony for teachers will traditionally take place on Knowledge Day, September 1.

The winners of the competition in the nomination "Best of the Best" were:

Anton Pavlovich Shaban (IPMEiT); Sergey Aleksandrovich Vazhnov (IE); Elmira Alyarovna Nazarova (IPMEiT).

Full list of winners and prize winners of the competition posted on the website of the Center for Education Quality.

Congratulations to the winners! We wish you creative success, new discoveries and new victories!

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Students and young scientists Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics, Novosibirsk State University took part in the International Summer School on Combinatorics, which was held at China Three Gorges University (CTGU) from June 26 to July 13. The delegation included Maxim Emelyanov, Timofey Vasiliev, Wang Yifei, Ayana Ondar and Maxim Levashov. The school program focused on modern aspects of discrete mathematics: participants studied in depth the theory of symmetric functions, Kazhdan-Lustig polynomials, Newton polyhedra and Lorentz polynomials. The educational process included active scientific discussions with teachers and colleagues, as well as final exams, which were successfully passed by all participants.

For NSU MMF Master's student Maxim Yemelyanov, this trip was his first international academic experience in the field of combinatorics:

— This school brought together leading specialists and students from all over China. The program allowed not only to deeply study theoretical and applied approaches, but also to lay the foundation for future cooperation between NSU and Chinese universities, — says Maxim.

Maxim Yemelyanov presented his master's thesis at the school on the topic "Consequences of using augmentation options in image recognition by convolutional neural networks." Despite the fact that the topic lies at the intersection of mathematics and AI, it aroused keen interest among teachers and students:

— I decided to take part in the school to get new ideas for my dissertation and exchange experiences with world experts in discrete mathematics. In addition, it was a unique chance to present my research to an international audience and receive an objective assessment from leading lecturers. My master's dissertation interested my colleagues and teachers at CTGU, which allowed me to receive valuable recommendations for further development of the topic and refinement of the methodology, — the student notes.

According to Maxim Yemelyanov, the lectures on symmetric functions were especially memorable – they demonstrated how a universal mathematical apparatus can be applied to a wide variety of problems and provide a new vision of discrete structures.

But the summer school is not only about science. The participants had a rich cultural program, including a trip to the world's largest hydroelectric power station, the Three Gorges, master classes in Chinese crafts, and excursions to museums and picturesque places in the province:

— The scale of the CTGU campus, its infrastructure, the combination of modern architecture with natural landscapes and the careful organization of all processes made a huge impression. This trip was simultaneously inspiring, productive and truly important for my scientific path, — shares Maxim Emelyanov.

"1C Academy": effective teaching of 1C technologies in universities

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

In July 2025, a large educational program was completed — a course for advanced training of teachers "1C Academy: Effective Teaching of 1C Technologies in Universities". It is implemented by Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University together with a technology partner — 1C Company. The main goal of the educational project "1C Academy" is to improve the quality and level of teaching modern technologies of corporate information systems. It is also aimed at training in the professional use of 1C products in the context of rapidly developing requirements of the digital economy based on the concept of a ready-made educational product.

In 2025, 1C Academy united more than 100 higher education institutions from 68 cities in five countries and 192 teachers seeking to develop their professional competencies in teaching modern information technologies based on advanced solutions from 1C. The scope of training participants has expanded significantly and, importantly, teachers from universities in the CIS countries have joined the program — more than 30% of the program's students are foreign participants. Among them: 12 teachers from Uzbekistan, 8 from Kazakhstan, 43 representatives from Belarus and 1 participant from Armenia. Thus, 1C Academy has reached a new level of cooperation and integration of educational resources of Russia and partners in the CIS countries.

A ready-made educational product is an approach when a complete set of educational and methodological materials is prepared: video lectures, tests, practical cases, configured for performing practical tasks of the IT system. The materials are adapted for any form of conducting classes and are ready for replication. The materials themselves, without a teacher training system, are ineffective, so SPbPU has developed a professional development program where teachers study not just the capabilities of the product, but receive material that can immediately be integrated with the university's LMS and begin teaching disciplines related to 1C, – said one of the authors of the course, senior researcher of the International Academic Competence Center "Intellectual Enterprise Technologies" of the Advanced Engineering School "Digital Engineering" SPbPU Anton Ambrazhey.

During the training, the participants completed a four-month course covering various processes in the 1C: ERP CIS, development on the 1C: Enterprise platform, and a methodological block. The program was successfully completed by 117 people, which amounted to more than 60%. The most successful graduates were awarded prizes from 1C.

Many participants noted the excellent structure of the course, the clarity of presentation of the material, the quality of the educational and methodological materials.

The course was organized and conducted at the highest level! The materials are structured and easy to understand, the feedback is timely, support is at all stages of training, – wrote in the review senior lecturer of the Kazakh Agrotechnical University Ayagoz Orazbaeva.

Professor of Moscow Polytechnic University Petr Romanov noted: The high level of preparation of educational materials and convenient structure allowed to effectively master new technologies. Convenient video lectures and prompt feedback from the organizers made a special impression.

This is the first time I am taking part in such training! The level of methodological support, technical support, as well as the quality of the prepared materials and the professionalism of the speakers are amazing! I felt “space” technologies on myself. This course has become a vector for the coming semesters. Thank you for the training! I will follow your example!!! — shared her impressions of the course associate professor of the Ural State Mining University Svetlana Lebedeva.

Deputy Director for Strategic Projects at 1C LLC Nikita Starichkov, assessing the importance of the 1C Academy for the industry, noted: There may be different universities, different areas of training, different educational programs, but always and everywhere it is the teachers who play a key role in the development and training of a young specialist. At the same time, it is important that the knowledge of teachers does not lag behind the IT industry, which is developing by leaps and bounds. Therefore, for our part, we welcome and support the Academy project, which has been held by Polytech for several years now. We hope that it will continue to actively develop in the future.

The Polytechnic University is holding a similar "Academy" for students. A similar course for students, "1C Academy for Students", is scheduled to launch in October 2025. Information can be found atofficial website of the program. Students from Russian and foreign universities have a unique opportunity to master new technologies and develop the necessary competencies for a successful career in the modern digital economy.

An important result of the implementation of the "1C Academy" is the creation of a solid foundation for the further development of the pedagogical potential of universities in the CIS countries and the training of highly professional personnel for the modern digital economy. Teachers and students acquire valuable knowledge and ready-made materials that allow not only to form a theoretical basis, but also to actively apply modern digital solutions in training and work.
