The opening of the educational program of the Postdoc School “Digital Methods in Social and Humanitarian Knowledge” (a project of the Humanities Institute – the winner of the “Priority 2030” competition of SPbPU) took place at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University.
The initiative to create the “Postdoc School” (postdoctoral studies) was a response to the growing competition and changing requirements for research practices under the influence of the new technological order. Digital analysis of large volumes of data, the use of neural networks and machine learning are becoming essential tools for scientists and teachers in the humanities who strive to remain at the forefront of science.
As part of the opening of the Postdoc School, a lecture by Eduard Ponarin was held. He is a well-known specialist in the field of digital data analysis methods, the founder and leading research fellow of the Ronald Franklin Inglehart Laboratory for Comparative Social Research and a full professor at the National Research University Higher School of Economics in St. Petersburg.
He devoted his lecture to current issues of creating and analyzing text corpora, building statistical models, working with big data, as well as popular methods of formalizing text parameters and mapping them.
The educational program of the Postdoc School is aimed at masters, postgraduate students, young candidates of science with a strong social and humanitarian education and is aimed at developing their potential in the modern world. The school is designed to become a bridge between traditional humanitarian knowledge and modern digital technologies, teaching in-depth research based on structuring and analyzing arrays of heterogeneous data. At the same time, the results of the project will be not only the development of digital competencies and the effectiveness of scientific research, but also the creation of scientific interdisciplinary and inter-institutional teams due to the cooperation of researchers from different higher schools and institutes of the social and humanitarian profile of SPbPU in research teams.
Thus, the program will have a significant impact on the development of the human resources potential of young people at SPbPU and will help in solving modern scientific problems.
