On December 17, the State University of Management hosted a meeting with Antony Shvindt, Deputy Head of the Secretariat of the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation and Secretary of the Commission for Scientific and Technological Development (S&TD) of the Russian Federation.

GUU Rector Vladimir Stroyev and Vice-Rector Maria Karelina spoke to the guest about the university's achievements over the past year, its engineering management training programs, and its plans for further technological development.

"This year, we opened two new laboratories: the RosGeoTech Advanced School of Industrial Innovations, created jointly with the Millionshchikov State Petroleum Technological University, and the Numerical Control Systems (NCS) Lab, opened thanks to a grant from the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education. Last month, the Center for Space Research, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and Radioelectronic Technologies opened, bringing together technological research conducted in these areas. Our future plans are no less ambitious, including opening our own Advanced Engineering School and integrating it into the national "Personnel for Space" project," concluded Vladimir Stroyev.

Next, the Secretary of the Scientific and Technological Revolution Commission met with a group of young scientists from the university, including members of the Student Design Bureau (SDB) “Innovative Solutions”.

"Let me remind you that for the first time in our country's history, 'technological leadership' has been defined as a national development goal. And the tools for achieving it are national technological leadership projects. These include nine national projects in critical areas such as production and automation equipment, public health, food security, unmanned aerial systems, and others. Universities are a breeding ground for talent and cutting-edge technological developments, so much attention is being paid to, among other things, the development of youth laboratories, student design bureaus, and advanced engineering schools," noted Antony Shvindt.

Vladimir Filatov, Director of the Engineering Project Management Center, presented engineering projects being implemented at the State University of Management in collaboration with industrial partners and within the framework of the Special Design Bureau (SKB). The guest was particularly interested in the bureau's flagship project for developing 3D models and 2D drawings for an electric train, which was implemented online, as well as the design support provided to one of the units performing tasks as part of the Special Military Operation.

The rector of the State University of Management noted that just last week, representatives of this department visited the State University of Management and expressed gratitude for the support provided both in the technological sphere and as part of the "SMU-SVOim" humanitarian campaign.

Maxim Pletnev, Head of the Scientific Research Coordination Department, discussed the trends and priority areas of SUM's research projects, noting a sevenfold increase in research volume over three years. In addition to technical areas, social and humanities projects are also being implemented, including those aimed at studying the demographic situation and shaping the civic position of young people. Antony Shvindt expressed interest and suggested that the results be sent to him shortly.

Mikhail Petrov, a representative of SKB GUU's industrial partner and Deputy Director for Development at the Petersburg Machine-Building Plant, also spoke at the meeting, presenting key performance indicators for the work performed.

Denis Serdechny, Head of the Laboratory of Digital and Intelligent Technologies for the Development of Territories of the Russian Federation, spoke about the implementation of a major scientific project in the agro-industrial complex, while Dmitry Nikitin presented the goals of creating the Center for Space Research, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and Radioelectronic Technologies.

"Unmanned systems are used in many fields, and it's crucial to develop technologies at the intersection of various sciences. It's crucial to study regional characteristics to identify areas of high demand and quickly transition to civilian applications. The State University of Management has unique experience in training engineering and economic specialists, and this is more relevant today than ever," Antony Shvindt concluded the meeting.

Following this, the Secretary of the Scientific and Technological Development Commission visited the state-of-the-art laboratories of the State University of Management and gave an open lecture for students, "Architecture for the Implementation of National Technological Leadership Projects." He introduced the audience to the national projects, emphasizing that "from an early age, you can chart your career trajectory in a specific direction. The State University of Management offers every opportunity for this; don't miss out."

At the end of the meeting, Antony Shvindt wished everyone success in their exams, congratulated them on the upcoming New Year, and invited them to ask him questions on the official Telegram channel, where he personally responds to all inquiries.

A meeting with clergy on the topic of "Love, Fidelity, and Family Creation," which is relevant to young people, was held at the State University of Management.

The meeting was opened by Galina Sorokina, Director of the Institute of Economics and Finance at the State University of Management, who noted the importance of preserving traditional family values.

Father Gregory and Father Kirill spoke to the visiting faculty and students about the challenges facing modern society and our country, openly answered questions from the audience, and shared their personal life experiences.

In their speeches, the guests emphasized that one shouldn't fear difficulties on the path to family happiness, because God helps even atheists in good deeds, such as starting a family and having children. The clergy also noted that one shouldn't delay the search for a soulmate, as it's easier for very young people to "get used to" each other, but with age, this becomes almost impossible.

"This meeting reminded us that discussions about love and family aren't boring theory, but a lively and important dialogue. Students and faculty were able to truly listen to each other and the clergy, who touched on topics that resonate with every young person. Father Gregory and Father Kirill shared insights typically reserved for personal advice: why you shouldn't be afraid to start your journey toward family, how important it is to learn to preserve your feelings, and why finding a life partner shouldn't be put off until later. Their answers were sincere, honest, and surprisingly relevant," said Maria Vikulova, a third-year student in the Department of World Economy and International Economic Relations.

As a result of the meeting at the State University of Management, the Pestovsky Circle was founded, named in memory of Nikolai Evgrafovich Pestov, an Orthodox philosopher and professor at the Moscow Institute of Engineering and Economics (now the State University of Management). Through this group, students and faculty at the Institute of Engineering and Economics will be able to continue regular communication with clergy on topics of interest to them.
