15 universities – winners of the competition of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia will receive subsidies for the creation and development of student design bureaus (SDB).
“At a meeting with students of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University, our President Vladimir Putin noted the potential of developments created by student design bureaus. Today, there are 676 such design bureaus in Russia, which employ more than 100 thousand students, postgraduates and young scientists. They have the opportunity to design their own solutions, register patents for inventions in priority areas of scientific and technological development, and also decide on employment,” said Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko.
The competition was held in two areas: “Student Design Leadership” and “Creation and Development of a Student Design Bureau”. The winners will receive grants of 20 million and 5 million rubles, respectively.
As the head of the Ministry of Education and Science, Valery Falkov, noted, the creation of a network of youth design bureaus based at universities is one of the effective tools for supporting engineering talent, launched on the instructions of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“Highly qualified engineers capable of contributing to the country’s technological leadership are trained at youth design bureaus. Students, postgraduates and young scientists develop competitive technologies, solve specific scientific, technical and engineering problems, and are widely involved in work on orders from industrial enterprises. It is important that the initiative has shown high demand – 178 universities from 81 regions of the country submitted applications for the competition. 15 winning universities will receive support for the creation of new and development of existing sites, including the purchase of modern equipment,” the minister said.
On April 16, Russian President Vladimir Putin met with students of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University who are actively involved in the work of scientific centers and student design bureaus. The students told about their activities within the SKB and asked the head of state questions about the future of Russian cosmonautics, namely about the development of student initiative projects and Russia’s participation in large space projects.
The areas of activity of the selected design bureaus cover key strategic areas for the country: unmanned systems, robotics, microelectronics, prototyping, cybersecurity, reverse engineering, electronics and electrical engineering, VR technologies, computer modeling and design, mechanical engineering and instrument making, bioengineering systems, engine building, nuclear and energy technologies, materials science, space technology, ground transport systems.
The winners in the Student Design Leadership category were:
⁃ Moscow State Technical University named after N.E. Bauman;
⁃ National University of Science and Technology MISiS;
⁃ Samara National Research University named after academician S.P. Korolev;
⁃ Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University;
⁃ Kuban State Technological University.
In the direction of “Creation and development of a student design bureau”:
⁃ Plekhanov Russian University of Economics;
⁃ Southern Federal University;
⁃ Donetsk National Technical University;
⁃ Kursk State University;
⁃ Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M.V. Lomonosov;
⁃ North Caucasus Federal University;
⁃ State University of Management;
⁃ Penza State University;
⁃ Saratov National Research State University named after N.G. Chernyshevsky;
⁃ Chuvash State University named after. I.N. Ulyanova.
Student design bureaus are aimed at developing and involving students in scientific and technical creativity and applied research and development work. They can act as platforms for developing new technical and technological solutions using advanced methods of mathematical and physical modeling. Work in them is based on principles close to real production.
