The regional part of the career guidance event “Knowledge Day” of the Fuel Division of the Rosatom State Corporation was held at the Advanced Engineering School of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University “Digital Engineering” (AES SPbPU).
The main goal of the event is to develop and strengthen the human resources potential of the nuclear industry, provide regional enterprises with the necessary personnel and timely career guidance work with young people to prepare a new generation of nuclear workers as part of the implementation of the Rosatom-2030 strategy. More than 700 representatives of enterprises of the Fuel Division of the Rosatom State Corporation, educational organizations, students and schoolchildren from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Kaliningrad, Elektrostal, Glazov, Seversk, Zelenogorsk, Vladimir, Novouralsk, Angarsk and other cities took part in the large-scale Knowledge Day in person and remotely.
The Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” and Centrotech-Engineering LLC acted as co-organizers of the regional stage of the event in St. Petersburg. Let us recall that Rosatom, consisting of seven divisions, including the Fuel Division, actively supported the program of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” with letters of guarantee for co-financing for the development of joint scientific and technological project activities and the development of common educational programs, as well as the expansion of educational infrastructure.
Thus, in the SPbPU PISh “Digital Engineering” training of master’s students is conducted according to the educational program “System digital engineering in nuclear engineering” (direction “Applied Mechanics”), developed jointly with OOO “Tsentrotekh-Engineering” (part of the management circuit of the Fuel Company of JSC “TVEL” of “Rosatom”). Also for the organization of effective training of “engineers of the future” in the interests of the nuclear industry PISh SPbPU and the Fuel Division of “Rosatom” opened joint Scientific and Technological Educational Space “TVEL – SPbPU” in 2023.
The program of the “Day of Knowledge” included a presentation by the management of the Fuel Division of Rosatom, representatives of schools, colleges and universities to exchange experiences and combine best practices in attracting young people to choose engineering professions in the nuclear industry and developing the potential of young engineering personnel, as well as an exciting game “Time of Science” for students and schoolchildren.
Natalia Sobakinskaya, Vice President for Human Resources Management at TVEL Fuel Company of Rosatom State Corporation, greeted the participants of the Knowledge Day and spoke about their professional path in the nuclear industry. She noted a wide range of Rosatom events and initiatives aimed at developing a personnel reserve, including expanding the network of specialized schools and colleges, creating thematic communities for young people and their parents, where they can learn more about growth opportunities in the corporation in four vectors: Science, Technology, Production, Projects.
One of our tasks is to create new science-intensive technologies that no one in the world will be able to repeat. This is exactly what Rosatom’s competitive advantage is based on. Therefore, everyone who works in our science is the creator of the future, namely new materials, designs, products that the world has never seen before. Technologists at our enterprises are actively involved in digitalization. This role combines the knowledge of an engineer, technologist and programmer. Thus, several areas of development are opening up for young specialists at once, – concluded Natalia Sobakinskaya.
On behalf of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, Deputy Director of the Department of State Policy in the Sphere of Secondary Vocational Education and Training Marina Safronova spoke, highlighting the training of qualified personnel in the SPO system in the context of technological leadership and national sovereignty.
It is necessary to think about choosing a future profession already at school. Within the framework of the federal project “Professionality”, which has been successfully implemented for three years, we tried to form a student’s career map so that each young person has a clear understanding of the goals he wants to achieve, as well as the necessary steps and knowledge on the way to them. Consistency in choosing a career path is the value that is in the focus of the development of the entire system of secondary vocational education, – explained Marina Innokentyevna.
Deputy General Director for Digital Engineering of Centrotech-Engineering LLC Viktor Duranichev shared his experience of cooperation with PISh SPbPU.
We are working on solving urgent frontier tasks of the nuclear industry, which require multidisciplinary knowledge from us. In this regard, the established partnership with the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” helps us a lot. Even during their studies, master’s students of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU have the opportunity to join those science-intensive projects that we conduct jointly with the Advanced Engineering School of the Polytechnic University, and continue working on them after graduation, but already in the team of OOO “Centrotech-Engineering”. We already have examples when a graduate of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU heads his own project in our company, which, without exaggeration, is aimed at the technological leadership of the country at the present time. I thank the team of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” and invite all the guys to join our innovative projects in due time, – said Viktor Duranichev.
Deputy Head of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” Oleg Rozhdestvensky spoke about admission to the school’s master’s program, cooperation with industrial partners and invited everyone to attend career days at the Polytechnic University.
When admitting to the Master’s program, we start from the fact that we are looking not just for students, but for potential colleagues — highly qualified engineers who will ensure the development of industries, take part in the digital transformation of production and conduct breakthrough research in the next five years. During the admission campaign to the Master’s program, we focus on assessing the portfolio, which reflects not only the student’s formalized knowledge, but also applied research, during which he gained real experience in project activities, calculations and modeling. After admission to the SPbPU PISh, we actively develop these skills and competencies of the student together with industrial partners as part of common project activities. Most often, our graduates continue this truly complex and important research, but already full-time in the partner’s company, — Oleg Igorevich summed up.
The participants of the educational game “Time of Science” from Polytechnic University were 3rd-5th year students of the Physics and Mechanics Institute, the Institute of Power Engineering of SPbPU and the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” in four mixed teams. The game process was divided into three rounds with ten tasks in each. The guys demonstrated their knowledge and erudition, logic and attentiveness, answered questions on physics, chemistry, mathematics, geometry. Read more about this here.
