As part of cooperation between the Kyrgyz-Russian Slavic University and Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, an educational internship was held for the heads of KRSU educational programs. The main goal was to study modern approaches to designing educational programs, implementing innovative teaching methods and developing partnerships with industrial enterprises.
The internship participants held a series of working meetings with the staff of the Directorate of Basic Educational Programs of SPbPU, where they discussed current trends in higher education, the specifics of developing new educational standards, and the model of multi-track engineering training. Of particular interest were issues of network interaction in the implementation of educational programs and the organization of students’ project activities.
A significant part of the program was devoted to familiarization with the advanced infrastructure of SPbPU. KRSU teachers visited the laboratories of the Physics and Mathematics Institute, where Acting Director Nikolay Ivanov demonstrated them unique equipment: wind tunnels, installations for studying hydrodynamic processes and modern research stands. At the Civil Engineering Institute, the participants got acquainted with the laboratories of additive technologies in construction and road construction materials, as well as the innovative educational space “MetaCampus Polytech”.
An important component of the internship was participation in the Youth Career Forum, where KRSU teachers were able to study effective mechanisms of interaction between the university and potential employers. The participants immersed themselves in the working atmosphere and improved their cross-professional competencies. This experience is especially valuable for the development of the graduate employment system in Kyrgyzstan.
The final stage was the final certification, at which colleagues from KRSU presented the developed educational programs, highlighting their competitive advantages, listing the industrial partners involved and describing the employment prospects of graduates. The defense took place in the presence of the assistant of the Presidential Administration of the Russian Federation Vadim Smirnov, acting rector of KRSU Sergey Volkov, representatives of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, vice-rector for educational activities of SPbPU Lyudmila Pankova and vice-rector for international activities Dmitry Arsenyev.
Lyudmila Pankova noted: “The implemented approach to the public presentation of the educational program allows us to look at it more comprehensively, evaluate the competitive advantages of the program in the context of the challenges of the modern labor market, and analyze the resource capabilities of the university for training in-demand specialists.”
The internship significantly deepened Russian-Kyrgyz cooperation in the field of engineering education, providing KRSU teachers with valuable experience that will contribute to the modernization of educational programs and the introduction of advanced practices into the university’s educational process. The knowledge and contacts gained open up new prospects for the development of academic mobility and joint educational projects between the two universities.
