Vladimir Stroyev, Rector of the State University of Management, attended an open lesson, "Automated Technologies in Modern Manufacturing," held in our university's state-of-the-art numerical control systems (NCS) training laboratory, designed to train personnel in the aircraft manufacturing, shipbuilding, and innovative transportation industries.

The educational space is equipped with technologies to support modern metalworking equipment with numerical control, a specialized computer lab, and software simulators for practicing control programs. This creates an integrated learning environment where students can consistently master technologies—from virtual modeling to hands-on work on real equipment.

Laboratory Director Dmitry Nikitin detailed the goals and objectives of the new division, which include organizing additional professional education and advanced training for industry employees, promoting engineering creativity among students and young people, and integrating digital technologies into the educational process.

Today, three additional professional training programs are being implemented at the CNC laboratory:

Preparation and verification of control programs for CNC turning machines. Preparation and verification of control programs for CNC milling machines. Automated technologies in modern manufacturing.

Since the laboratory's opening, more than 260 industrial engineers and university professors have completed advanced training programs, while over 200 students have completed lecture courses and attended educational intensives.

During the open lesson, participants learned the operating principles of milling equipment and mastered the creation of control programs in CAD/CAM systems. Practical training using software simulators and CNC training systems enabled students not only to gain theoretical understanding but also to apply their acquired knowledge in practice.

The CNC Laboratory was created with the support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation as part of the federal project "Development of the most important science-intensive technologies and advanced training and retraining of qualified personnel in the field of transport mobility" of the national project "Industrial support of transport mobility."

The laboratory also implements networked professional development programs with three partner universities:

Vladimir State University named after A. G. and N. G. Stoletov; Grozny State Oil Technological University named after Academician M. D. Millionshchikov; Belgorod State Technological University named after V. G. Shukhov.

The CNC Laboratory of the State University of Management continues to develop as a center of excellence in the field of automated technologies, providing training for highly qualified specialists for modern industry.

On December 12 and 13, young scientists from the State University of Management participated in the IV All-Russian Forum of Technological Entrepreneurship "TechPred-2025," organized by the Ministry of Education and Science and the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia.

The University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform's flagship event featured a packed program focusing on support measures and accelerating the market entry of startups that meet national technology priorities.

At the sessions, government, academic, and business representatives, investors, and young entrepreneurs discussed the roadmap for the federal "Technology" project, university cooperation with leading industry companies, the creation of a startup ecosystem, successful technology transfer models, and prospects for transforming the technology industry in the face of global challenges.

The SMU business program was represented by Dmitry Rogov, Director of the Business Incubator; Anna Sotnikova, Chairman of the Council of Young Scientists and Junior Research Fellow in the Scientific Activities Department of the Scientific Research Coordination Office; Vladimir Kutkov and Nikita Akinshin, specialists from the Engineering Project Management Center; and Mikhail Zorin, winner of the 2025 Student Startup competition and resident of the Academy of Innovators.

The central event of the TechPred-2025 forum was the plenary discussion "The Superposition Principle: Towards a Technological Breakthrough by Joining Efforts."

The event was opened by Antony Shvindt, Deputy Head of the Secretariat of the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation and Executive Secretary of the Government Commission for Scientific and Technological Development of Russia, who read a welcoming speech from Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Dmitry Chernyshenko.

Following this, the Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Valery Falkov, addressed the forum's guests:

"Since 2022, the number of participants, including young entrepreneurs, investors, and university representatives, has quadrupled. Most of the people brought together by the forum today are active participants in the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education's "University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform" program. You are, in many ways, shaping the culture of technological entrepreneurship in modern Russia. Thanks to your coordinated teamwork, nearly 5,000 startups have registered with the Platform over the past three years, with total revenue exceeding 2.8 billion rubles."

At a plenary session featuring Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education Olga Petrova and First Deputy Minister of Economic Development Maxim Kolesnikov, experts discussed the prospects for the development of the federal "Technology" project, the role of the ITC in implementing technological cooperation maps, stimulating demand for university startups from corporations and large industrial companies, and current support measures and tools for motivating young scientists, engineers, and technology entrepreneurs to engage in innovative activities.

Another key event of the forum's first day was the Demo Day for the seventh cohort of the "Innovators' Academy" accelerator of the Moscow Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development. The founders of the ten best startups presented their technological solutions to an expert jury, corporate executives, and business angels, and received their first investments. SUMU also stepped up its efforts – for the second year in a row, our students have been volunteering at the Academy's Demo Day. This allows young managers not only to learn about best practices and developments in technology innovation but also to contribute to the organization of such a large-scale event.

It's important to note that our university actively participates in projects within the University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science. SUM conducts entrepreneurial skills training, implements acceleration programs for NTI markets, and for the past two years, our students have won the Student Startup competition organized by the Foundation for Assistance to Small Innovative Enterprises (FASIE), and their projects have been included in the All-Russian ranking of the TOP-1000 university startups. This year was no exception. The list of top projects, selected in key technology areas, included startups HolterTECH (a wearable heart rate monitor with ECG recording technology, developed by Mikhail Zorin) and Clynn (a device for sterile and convenient delivery of Vaseline with precise dosing for tattoo artists, developed by Varvara Karamysheva). As a reminder, both projects won the Student Startup competition this year, and their founders received grants totaling 1 million rubles from the FASIE.

On December 10, a meeting of the Expert Council on Science and Education of the CIS Interparliamentary Assembly was held at the Tauride Palace. Chaired by Andrey Rudskoy, Rector of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and Vice President of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Dmitry Kobitsky, Secretary General of the CIS Interparliamentary Assembly Council, opened the meeting.

As Andrei Ivanovich noted, a number of events aimed at supporting and developing young talent are taking place in the region. The experts were provided with detailed information on youth projects, including the "Children of the Commonwealth" cultural and educational forum, the Humanities and Social Sciences Olympiad for CIS schoolchildren, and other annual festivals, games, and competitions.

One of the key topics of the meeting was recommendations for legal regulation of the development and use of artificial intelligence systems.

To accelerate AI adoption, government support programs, a unified framework for ethically based legal regulation, and simplified access to data are needed. Key conditions include a special investment regime, a balance between the interests of business and society, and simplified administrative procedures for testing and implementing AI technologies.

Modern digital computers are incapable of reproducing human cognitive functions, noted Andrey Rudskoy.

A digital machine will never become a brain—but it could very well become a "digital crutch" for the brain, freeing us from routine work and allowing us to more quickly realize our intellectual and creative potential. That's why we expect lawyers today to clearly define AI—and not just define it, but also regulate its areas of application and the conditions for its proper use, said Andrei Ivanovich.

Representatives of the academic community of the Commonwealth countries have proposed developing recommendations for organizing a grant support system for teachers, young scientists, and consortiums of universities in the CIS countries.

The countries of the region, united by a shared history and similar educational policy principles, have been developing higher education along different trajectories in recent decades—from integration with the European space to reforms focused on domestic priorities. This has led to fragmentation of the educational space and a decline in academic mobility. This weakens the ties between education, business, and government, and hinders the mutual recognition of qualifications. The creation of a grant system will create a unified integration mechanism aimed at developing transnational educational and innovative initiatives.

Council members discussed proposals for the draft long-term plan for model lawmaking in the Commonwealth of Independent States for 2026–2028 and reviewed the draft program for implementing the concept for the formation of a unified (common) educational space for the Commonwealth for 2027–2035.

The experts were presented with the results of the second international conference, "The Russian Language – the Basis for Integration Dialogue in the CIS Region," and the international scientific and educational congress of the CIS member states, "The Intellectual Code of the Commonwealth." Andrey Rudskoy praised the results of the Assembly's past congressional events and proposed holding them annually. The council members unanimously supported this proposal. The next meeting will be held in spring 2026.

A delegation from St. Petersburg Polytechnic University participated in the 19th International Annual Scientific Conference of the Russian-Armenian University. The event, which brought together over 550 scientists and presented over 350 papers, demonstrated the depth and diversity of the strategic partnership between the two leading universities.

Professor Pargev Avetisyan, Vice-Rector for Research at RAU, read a welcoming address from SPbPU Rector and RAS Academician Andrey Rudskoy. In his address, he noted: "I am confident that the conference will further strengthen scientific and educational ties between our universities and countries and will provide impetus for new joint projects. The integration of the efforts of Russian and Armenian scientists is key to addressing today's global challenges. Cooperation with RAU has traditionally been maintained at a high level, remaining a key aspect of the multifaceted relations between our countries."

Mikhail Vozhdaev, Counselor of the Russian Embassy in Armenia and representative of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science, stated that cooperation with the Russian Academy of Sciences remains a key aspect of bilateral relations, traditionally maintained at a high level.

The SPbPU Institute of Humanities was represented by Director Natalia Chicherina, Associate Professors Tatyana Nam and Andrey Shakurov, Assistant Professor Maxim Smirnov, and Director of the Higher School of Social Sciences and Social Work Marina Arkannikova (participation online). Their presentations covered key trends in modern education and communications: from "Microlearning as a Tool for Personalized Education for Zoomers" (N.V. Chicherina) and the motivation for youth volunteerism (T.A. Nam) to modern branding strategies (A.A. Shakurov) and cultural sovereignty (M.S. Arkannikova).

Engineering and digital solutions cannot be truly effective without proper humanities-based understanding, emphasized RAU Vice-Rector for Science Pargev Avetisyan at a meeting with the delegation, noting the growing importance of such collaboration.

Senior Lecturer Andrey Makashov and student Savva Ivanov represented the SPbPU Higher School of Biomedical Systems and Technologies at the conference. The main focus of the discussions with colleagues from the Institute of Biomedicine and Pharmacy at the Russian Agrarian University (RAU) was the implementation of joint projects in genomics, transcriptomics, and chemoinformatics using artificial intelligence and machine learning. The goal is to develop new approaches to personalized medicine and drug discovery. The parties reached preliminary agreements on joint grant applications, specialist exchanges, and the development of educational programs.

Danila Karaulov and Ratmir Ustimenko, postgraduate students from the Higher School of Engineering Physics at SPbPU, presented cutting-edge research in photonics and nanotechnology at the conference. Their paper, "Study of Photoinduced Light Absorption Spectra in GeSi/Si Quantum Dots in the Mid-Infrared Spectrum," showcased the results of their joint work with the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAU) on the optical properties of quantum dots based on germanium-silicon solid solutions, which hold promise for applications in infrared photonics, telecommunications, machine vision, and energy-efficient solar cells.

The participation of such a multidisciplinary delegation from SPbPU, ranging from humanities and biomedical scientists to physical engineers, clearly confirms that the strategic partnership with RAU has evolved into a systemic alliance aimed at training new types of specialists and conducting interdisciplinary research capable of responding to the complex challenges of our time.
