Tour participants

On March 12, second- to fourth-year students from the Department of Heat, Gas Supply, and Ventilation at SPbGASU visited the construction site of the low-rise residential complex Univer City. The career guidance tour, organized by Setl Group, allowed the future engineers to experience the building's entire life cycle in a single day.

The student route was prepared and led by leading specialists from the holding company, who oversee various areas:

Alexey Lysenko, Lead Engineer of the Heating, Ventilation, Water Supply, and Sewerage (HVAC) Section, served as the main technical guide, showing the construction site from the inside. Alexey graduated from SPbGASU in 2013 and now successfully implements major projects. Vladislav Samoilov, Construction Manager, revealed the management secrets of major projects. Veronika Bogatova, Training and Development Manager at Setl Group, introduced the students to the corporate culture and career opportunities.

At the construction headquarters, Alexey Lysenko introduced the delegation to the 13 construction principles in place at the holding company. This internal system of standards guarantees high-quality housing. The TGV students saw how these principles are implemented in their professional fields: from energy-efficient engineering solutions to the use of environmentally friendly materials.

The most anticipated part for the students was a trip "behind the scenes"—the group visited an individual heating unit. The future specialists assessed the equipment layout, modern pump units, and the automation that controls the apartments' climate control.

A walk through the basement allowed us to examine the utility system in detail, from the metering units to the pipe insulation. The company's specialists emphasized installation details rarely covered in textbooks but critical to the long-term operation of the systems.

Discussions about career launches have become a tradition at these events. Veronika Bogatova emphasized, "The company's doors are open to active students," and spoke about internship programs, internships, mentoring, and employment.

For the second-year students, this trip became a comprehensive introduction to their future profession. Third- and fourth-year students viewed the facility through the eyes of professionals, asking specific questions about hydraulic testing and system balancing.

"These field trips are the best bridge between theory and real-life construction. Seeing systems installed at various stages and interacting with such senior managers is invaluable experience for a future engineer," noted second-year student Alexander Korobov, who participated in the excursion.

On March 11, SPbGASU students took part in a tour of the training center, where they learned about modern military equipment, military life and conditions, and how UAV operator training is organized.

The training center offers specialized classes, each of which provides training in its own area:

Construction and operation of radio communication systems; construction of a DRT network; cyber defense; maintenance and tactics of control of tank columns; supply; logistics; work with unmanned systems.

Additionally, the children learned the basics of tactical medicine—not just emergency medical care in the field, but rather specific techniques that require immediate rescue in the midst of active combat.

During the excursion, students not only learned about the latest technologies in the modern military but also experienced short training on the same simulators used to train new UAV specialists.

"I'm into ATVs, so I liked the military model in the car and motorcycle classes. I tried flying a UAV on a simulator, but it's much more difficult," said Genrikh Gogolev, a student at the Automobile and Road Engineering Faculty.

"Thank you very much for organizing this trip. I think it was very important to see the training of our soldiers and the skills and abilities they acquire during their training," said third-year student Viktor Belogrudov. "Using specialized simulators, we tried ourselves out as UAV operators and KAMAZ truck drivers, and also learned the theoretical principles of communication devices, such as radios. I really remember the tactical medicine instructor with whom we discussed the importance of first aid. What I liked most was that we were given the opportunity to test military equipment firsthand, albeit in a simulation."

The Russian Armed Forces invite students to participate in a special year-long program focused on working with modern unmanned systems. Students are offered the opportunity to serve in the unmanned systems forces under a special contract. Learn more about participating in the program

On February 25, a meeting in the "Dialogue on Equal Terms" format was held at the "Growth Point" educational space of the St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering with Ivan Esipov, a combat veteran, participant in a special military operation, and first deputy coordinator of the St. Petersburg regional branch of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia.

The conversation was frank, emotional, and largely personal. The students asked questions about service to their country, humanitarian aid, modern technology, and choosing a life path.

"The most important thing is to be caring."

Answering the question of how one can serve the Motherland on the home front, the guest emphasized that such service begins with personal responsibility: "Being a worthy citizen of your Fatherland. For a student, this means studying well, striving to do something for the country, participating, and helping to the best of your ability. The most important thing is not to let your heart burn out."

Ivan Esipov recalled the civilian mobilization during the siege of Leningrad and the first cleanup day in the spring of 1942, when exhausted residents came out to clean the city streets. He said that even in the most difficult periods of history, people were united by a sense of belonging. "Fear the indifferent: all the evil on Earth happens with their silent consent," he added.

About humanitarian aid: from household items to high technology

The students were interested in what kind of assistance is most in demand today. According to the guest, this ranges from simple supplies—hygiene products, bandages, and warm clothing—to more complex equipment.

"Aid comes in different forms. There are everyday consumables. And then there are expensive items—drones, communications equipment, especially digital radios. If you help, it's best to be targeted, understanding the needs of a specific unit," said Ivan Esipov, noting that volunteer work requires compassion and a willingness to endure emotional strain.

Ivan Esipov

Technologies that change reality

A separate section of the discussion was devoted to unmanned aerial vehicles. Ivan Esipov emphasized that the development of UAVs has significantly changed the nature of combat: "War today is largely a system and a mathematical process. Thanks to drones, we can see movements, we can see locations, tactics change, and depth changes. It's a completely different reality."

According to him, the operators' work requires high concentration, technical training, and responsibility. The system is evolving rapidly, and new challenges and new competencies are emerging.

For students at SPbGASU, the topic of unmanned technologies is particularly relevant:

The Russian Armed Forces offer students the opportunity to serve in the Unmanned Systems Troops under a special annual contract. This service includes mandatory training in the UAV specialist training program within the Russian Ministry of Defense's training network.

Over a year of service (including training), you can earn over 7 million rubles. Of this, 4.5 million is a one-time payment upon signing a contract. Such conditions for joining the unmanned forces are available only in St. Petersburg.

"Modern technologies open up broad professional opportunities both in the civilian sector and in high-tech solutions that require engineering thinking and precision," noted Ivan Esipov.

"Fear will always be there – the important thing is not to break down."

Answering a question about his service, Ivan Esipov said frankly: "Fear will always be there. That's normal. But the worst thing is to break down. You need to think about your comrades, about those around you. Then the fear becomes manageable."

He shared a personal story about restoring field communications under fire and emphasized: "We must always remember: there is a way out of any situation. Even the most insurmountable."

A story about loyalty

The story of a dog that soldiers found at their position was especially touching.

The dog joined the unit, survived the winter with the soldiers, and was then sent to St. Petersburg. After being wounded and hospitalized, it was he who welcomed Ivan Esipov home. "He saw me—and it was such a joy… We don't have children now, but we have a dog. And that, too, is responsibility and love." A video of this meeting, according to the speaker, later went viral on social media and has garnered tens of thousands of views.

"The glass is always half full"

In closing, Ivan Esipov addressed the students: "No matter how difficult it is, think positively. The glass is always half full. Try not to lie to yourself and be better. And love your homeland: there's only one, there will be no other."

At the end of the meeting, students were able to ask questions about teamwork, technology, personal choice, and civic engagement. The event gave students the opportunity to discuss complex topics honestly and informally and reflect on their role in a changing world.

Lecture by Stanislav Logunov

On March 5, the Faculty of Economics and Management (FEM) of SPbGASU hosted a meeting with St. Petersburg entrepreneur, chairman of the board of directors and shareholder of the construction company MegaMade, Stanislav Logunov.

A builder by training and vocation, Stanislav Igorevich graduated from our university 30 years ago and had a remarkable career in the construction industry. After receiving his diploma, he joined the State Unitary Enterprise "Vodokanal of St. Petersburg," where he rose to the position of chief engineer. He then became deputy chairman of the city's Construction Committee, headed the State Expertise Center, and worked in Moscow before returning to the city on the Neva.

Today, in addition to managing the company, Stanislav Igorevich consults with managers, trains employees, and writes business books.

During the meeting, the speaker shared with the students his career path and the challenges he's faced since his student days. He emphasized that each new position presented a significant challenge: it required mastering new competencies, re-evaluating previous approaches, and constantly expanding his knowledge base.

The meeting participants discussed life values: how to determine what's most important and what principles to use to establish a system of priorities. Special attention was paid to the qualities necessary for building a successful career and developing into a leader. The speaker also shared which "anti-leadership" traits are best avoided.

Stanislav Igorevich answered students' questions: why managers are needed at all, what to pay attention to when managing a construction project, what are "blacklists" of clients, what issues concern established managers, and what are the fundamental differences between working for a commercial company and working for a government organization.

The presentation was complemented by books by Stanislav Logunov, presented to the most active participants. These books will help young people develop as individuals and inspire them to consider their future careers.
