In 2025, the number of Polytechnic students and postgraduates who won the grant competition of the Committee for Science and Higher Education of St. Petersburg almost doubled. Last year there were 73 of them, this year – 125.

Students will receive city government awards of 50,000 rubles, postgraduates – 100,000 rubles. The research topics cover five areas – these are projects in the field of humanities and technical sciences, medicine, natural and exact disciplines, as well as works related to culture and art.

One of the winners of the 2025 grant competition is the leading engineer of the educational research laboratory "Computational Mechanics" of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU "Digital Engineering", a postgraduate student of the Physics and Mechanical Institute of SPbPU Mikhail Khovaiko, who presented an innovative project to create lightweight and reliable mesh structures from polymer composites for the space and aviation industries.

"The project is based on research conducted at the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU "Digital Engineering", as well as on the results of a series of scientific and experimental design work in the field of digital modeling and testing of composite materials," notes the author of the development. – We have not only proven the technical feasibility of using new technologies in the production of mesh structures for rocket and space technology, but also demonstrated their practical value. The implementation of such solutions will expand the use of polymer composites in high-tech mechanical engineering. Winning the competition confirms the relevance, novelty and significance of the problems solved within the framework of my dissertation research, and opens up new opportunities for its implementation: financial support will help accelerate the implementation of the development in industry, and recognition at the city level will increase interest from aerospace enterprises."

Postgraduate student Maxim Larin works as an engineer at the research laboratory "Laser and Additive Technologies" of IMMiT. He submitted a project for the competition "Development of laser cladding technology for restoration and extension of the service life of worn surfaces of large-sized equipment."

"Receiving the grant is an important step in developing my research in the field of repair laser cladding," Maxim shared. "The project is aimed at creating an effective technology for restoring and extending the service life of worn surfaces of large-sized equipment using the mobile laser cladding complex "Nomad", in the development of which I took direct part. This approach allows for restoration directly at the site of equipment operation, reducing downtime and increasing the efficiency of repair work."

A graduate student of the Institute of Power Engineering, Evgeny Chesnokov, won the competition with his project “Development of a methodology for determining the long-term permissible current load and emergency permissible current load on cable lines with temperature monitoring.”

"The project is dedicated to calculating long-term permissible current loads for medium and high voltage cable lines," said Evgeny. "The calculation methodology provided in the project helps optimize the operation of the cable network and effectively transmit electricity to the end user. In addition to the long-term permissible current load, the methodology allows calculating the emergency permissible current load, which makes it possible to effectively redistribute the load without harming the cable insulation. Based on the results of the project, two organizational standards were developed for PJSC Rosseti Lenenergo."

Andrey Shirokih, a graduate of the Institute of Power Engineering and an engineer at the Higher School of Power Engineering, presented a project for the competition entitled “Development of scientific and technical foundations for creating a digital twin of an aircraft engine and its control system.”

"I am glad that the project was noted, victories in such competitions motivate us to work and develop further," says Andrey. "In my opinion, digital twins are the basis for the future of aviation, a topic that needs to be developed as much as possible. I must say that the project I am working on would not have happened without the support of the Polytechnic University and the contribution of my colleagues. In many ways, the work is aimed at forming the material and technical base of the twin technology – these are experimental stands. Tests on such stands will allow us to work out the methods for creating digital twins, verify and validate the mathematical models embedded in them. Science cannot exist without an experiment, so I am doing experiments in a team of like-minded people. I hope that the results of my work will become one of the building blocks of a reliable foundation for domestic aircraft engine manufacturing."

By the way, read a long interview with Andrey Shirokih in the next issues of the project "Persona".

Margarita Yanchevskaya moved to the 2nd year of the IPMEiT master's program this year. She submitted her work "A multifactorial study of the transformation of applicants' perception of higher education institutions taking into account rating indicators" to the competition.

“The idea for the project arose from my observation of how complicated and multifaceted the process of choosing a university has become for modern applicants,” said Margarita. “They take into account many factors — from the availability of the required specialty and employment prospects to the opinion of parents and the atmosphere at the university. In recent years, the influence of subjective assessments on the perception of the quality of education has especially increased. I was interested in how these subjective factors interact with other criteria, whether ratings affect applicants’ priorities, and how applicants integrate this information into their selection system. The study showed that choosing a university for modern applicants is a multifactorial process. They evaluate universities based not only on academic indicators, but also on social factors. For successful positioning of a university, it is important to find a balance between these two aspects. Moreover, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of each university and the characteristics of applicants in different fields of study. These findings will enable us to develop more effective and targeted information strategies that take into account the wide range of factors that influence important life choices for each applicant.”

Graduate of the ISI Master's program "Digital Construction of Buildings and Structures" Prokhor Yakovlev In the project "Parametric modeling of design solutions for a hyperboloid structure", he developed a method for optimizing steel rod structures based on the criterion of minimizing metal consumption. A distinctive feature of the method is the automatic collection of climatic loads, as well as the use of an evolutionary algorithm to find an effective design solution. In his work, Prokhor implemented the method on a steel hyperboloid frame of a lighthouse structure. As a result of the study, optimal parameters of a hyperboloid structure based on the criterion of minimizing metal consumption were determined, with a reduction in the total mass by 4.5 times from the original version. Verification of the calculations was carried out by setting up the export of the calculation scheme in the LIRA-SAPR PC. An approach to detailing the design model using the automatic formation of typical nodes is also proposed, which significantly reduces costs. As Prokhor notes, the developed algorithms are universal and can be projected onto similar rod spatial structures.

Some of the guys have won KNVSh grants before. For example, Igor Repin, a postgraduate student at IE, who presented the project “Improving the energy efficiency of thermal power plants in St. Petersburg using energy-saving technologies.”

"I participated in the St. Petersburg grant competition for the second time, and won for the second time," Igor said. "Both works were related to the topic of the future dissertation and were based on the master's thesis. In the projects, I proposed modern methods for increasing the efficiency of power plants using heat pumps. The first victory gave me confidence, so I decided to participate this year. Over the year, I have added achievements and experience, there was no doubt that I would win this time! I am very happy about this, my birthday is coming up – I gave myself a great gift!"

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The first stage of training in the T1 IT camp started on July 8. As it was found out by the T1 IT holding, 25% of students of Novosibirsk technical universities associate their career future with system analytics. Statistics based on the assessment of the popularity of the IT holding's educational programs, the professional priorities of future IT specialists in Novosibirsk reflect the general trend in the country – system analytics is the leader in many regions, including Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg and Izhevsk. The second and third places in popularity were taken by backend and frontend development – these tracks were chosen by 23% and 17% of future IT specialists, respectively. Also in demand among young people are the specialties of tester and application administrator.

The bootcamp participants included 144 students from Novosibirsk. The largest number of students came from Novosibirsk State University — 42 students were enrolled in the IT camp. This is due to the fact that NSU is focused on practice-oriented learning. For several years now, IT holding T1 has been a strategic partner of the university — the company's employees participate in the development of training courses and give lectures, conduct career guidance events and train teachers to work with new digital tools. Over the past six months, more than 3,000 NSU students have attended events organized in partnership with T1.

Future IT specialists in the IT camp will be able to gain "combat experience" by solving real business problems. Experience is one of the most important criteria for employers when hiring. In 2025, the holding's initiative collected a record number of applications – more than 7,000, which is 2.5 times more than last year. Almost 3,000 candidates passed the entrance test, and 1,535 people were accepted to the educational intensive.

The IT camp is taught in a hybrid format. At the first stage, participants undergo online training, including lectures from T1 experts, master classes on developing technical and soft skills, and analysis of practical tasks. The second stage is project work: participants will unite in teams to develop real solutions under the guidance of experienced mentors. The IT camp will end with an in-person final. It will take place on August 28 in three cities – Novosibirsk, Moscow, and Yekaterinburg. All students will receive certificates of participation, and the most successful will be invited to an internship at the company. Last year, 80% of the camp participants became T1 interns.

— To quickly start a career, graduates of even top IT universities often lack practical skills and a general understanding of the trajectory of professional movement. To help young specialists overcome this barrier, we create an environment that brings together young people and expert practitioners who are implementing ambitious digital transformation projects today. This transfer of living knowledge is the basis of the T1 IT camp and our other educational projects, — commented Dmitry Kharitonov, First Deputy General Director of T1 IT holding.

Reference:

Novosibirsk State University (NSU) together with IT holding T1 is implementing Bachelor's degree program "Applied Artificial Intelligence". This year, 150 students will be accepted. Graduates of the program will master one of the most popular areas in the modern labor market. According to experts, 70% of Russian companies are already using AI in their work, and the demand for professionals with skills in working with AI and machine learning technologies has tripled in recent years. Submission of documents for the new bachelor's program at NSU ends on August 25.

The meeting was chaired by Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation Sergey Nazarov and Deputy Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation Petr Konyushenko.

The event was attended by First Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Republic of Dagestan Manvel Mazhonts, Minister of Energy and Tariffs of the Republic of Dagestan Marat Shikhaliev, representatives of PJSC Rosseti, republican ministries and relevant departments.

The key topics were improving payment discipline, eliminating unauthorized connections, combating illegal mining, as well as measures to handle peak loads in the energy system during abnormal heat, as well as the results of the implementation of a “pilot” program for sustainable economic development of energy and housing and communal services enterprises.

"This year, in order to successfully implement the "pilot" program, the region needs to reach 90% in terms of collection for all utilities, as well as reduce losses in the networks. According to the results of the first half of the year, the lowest level of payment collection and the highest level of losses in the networks are still recorded in the electric power industry. I note that with the current level of payments for electricity (less than 70%) and losses in the electric networks at the level of 50%, PJSC Rosseti North Caucasus – Dagenergo actually has no sources for implementing measures to reconstruct and modernize the regional energy system. It is necessary to more actively interact with the population and business to increase the level of payments, and significantly improve the effectiveness of measures to identify facts of theft of electric energy," said Sergey Nazarov.

During the trip, the delegation also visited one of the key power supply centers of Makhachkala – the 110 kV "Novaya" substation, where power engineers installed an additional transformer with a capacity of 16 MVA and replaced 12 cable power lines to improve the reliability of power supply. Later, Sergey Nazarov took part in a working meeting with the Head of the Republic of Dagestan Sergey Melikov, which was also attended by Deputy Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation Petr Konyushenko. The development of the region's electric grid complex and the implementation of a "pilot" program for sustainable economic development of energy and housing and communal services enterprises were discussed.

Aide to the President of Russia Andrei Fursenko and Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko held a meeting of the council for the implementation of the Federal Scientific and Technical Program for the Development of Synchrotron and Neutron Research and Research Infrastructure for the Period up to 2030 and Beyond.

It was also attended by the Minister of Education and Science Valery Falkov, the President of the National Research Center "Kurchatov Institute" Mikhail Kovalchuk, Deputy Minister of Finance Pavel Kadochnikov, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Vasily Shpak, Deputy Minister of Healthcare Tatyana Semenova, and representatives of other interested organizations. During the meeting, the current status of work on the creation of unique scientific installations of the "megascience" class and complexes of nuclear medicine and hadron therapy was discussed.

Andrey Fursenko noted the importance of meeting deadlines when creating such installations and complexes, and also paid special attention to the development of technologies that will be developed on the basis of the research stations of the SKIF Center for Collective Use.

Dmitry Chernyshenko emphasized that measures for the development of synchrotron and neutron research and research infrastructure in Russia are enshrined in the corresponding decree of President Vladimir Putin.

"Our country is implementing a program to create and modernize a network of unique scientific installations of the "megascience" class, nuclear medicine and hadron therapy complexes. They are called upon to make an important contribution to achieving the national goal set by President Vladimir Putin – technological leadership. Thanks to these installations, our country will be able to further realize its scientific potential, provide breakthrough research in a whole range of areas, including the nuclear industry, materials science, and medicine. Today, 12 such projects are being implemented within the framework of the federal scientific and technical program," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

Among them are the SKIF Collective Use Center in the Novosibirsk Region, the RIF on Russky Island, PIK and the Nuclear Medicine and Hadron Therapy Center (modernization of five complexes) in the Leningrad Region, Sila and Omega in the Moscow Region, the Zelenograd Technological Storage Complex, and KISI-Kurchatov in Moscow. The Deputy Prime Minister paid special attention to the progress of creating a 4th generation synchrotron radiation source at the SKIF Collective Use Center and the commissioning of 25 research stations at the International Center for Neutron Research based on the PIK high-flux reactor.

The head of the Ministry of Education and Science, Valery Falkov, presented a report on the current status of work on the creation of unique scientific installations of the “megascience” class.

"The event to create such a research infrastructure is the key and most resource-intensive in the federal scientific and technical development program. As a result, a network research infrastructure will be created with localized sources in various regions of Russia," he noted.

The Minister also spoke about the implementation of the project to create a 4th generation synchrotron radiation source at the SKIF Center for Collective Use.

"We have created a large-scale program, and it is moving forward. Now it is important to make an effort and see it through to the end. There is a great responsibility in construction, because the volume is really serious. What we are doing can be done by only a few countries," said Mikhail Kovalchuk.

In December 2024, the linear accelerator (part of the SKIF structure) was launched. In May of this year, the booster synchrotron was launched, and the first synchrotron radiation was obtained at the facility. By the end of August, it is planned to reach the design power parameter of 3 GeV (one of the two main parameters of the synchrotron radiation source). Currently, scientists from the G.I. Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics SB RAS (the main manufacturer of equipment for the accelerator-storage complex) are doing a lot of work in this area.

The manufacturing of the SKIF main storage device equipment is 95.5% complete. It is fully located on the site of the facility, and large-block assembly of accelerator elements is underway in the manufacturing stand building.

In parallel with this, the team that will work on the installation is being trained. The main source of personnel for SKIF will be Novosibirsk State University.

In general, the SKIF CCU is a complex of 34 buildings and structures, as well as engineering and technological equipment. The readiness of the equipment of the seven experimental stations of the first stage is more than 95%.

The Ministry of Education and Science is working to attract industrial partners interested in the operation of such mega-science installations. During a series of events, they formulated requests for research, including in the fields of petrochemistry, biology, microelectronics, and others.

Director of the Kurchatov Institute National Research Center Yulia Dyakova spoke about the implementation of 12 megascience class installations and nuclear medicine complexes within the framework of the program. In particular, she noted that 11 out of 20 stations have already been manufactured and delivered for the commissioning of 25 research stations of the PIK reactor, and 9 stations are still being developed. She emphasized that the modernization of such installations as KISI-Kurchatov, Omega, TNK Zelenograd, RIF, Luch U-70 and Luch-Proton is on schedule. It is expected that the Luch-Proton complex will create the first domestic gantry system in Russia – a radiation installation for medicine.
