The Polytechnic University hosted two tracks of the ISI.FORUM student forum: ISI.CHOICE and ISI.CAREER. The ISI.CHOICE track is a traditional event for first- and second-year undergraduate and specialist students. Its goal is to help students decide on their choice of study profile and receive detailed information about training areas.
The track featured the heads of the ISI educational programs: Deputy Director for Educational and Methodological Work and Head of the “Construction of High-Rise and Large-Span Buildings and Structures” program Maxim Terekh, Head of the “Urban Construction and Economy” program Alexander Chusov, Head of the “Hydrotechnical, Energy and Arctic Construction” program Nikolai Belyaev, and Head of the “Motor Roads” program Anatoly Novik.
Students were able to ask questions not only to teachers, but also to graduates of these programs, who shared their experiences and talked about employment prospects.
Deputy Director of the Institute for Organisation of the Educational Process and Work with Students Asiyat Eliseeva spoke about the key aspects of distribution by profiles and gave recommendations on how to successfully write an application. During breaks between presentations, participants visited interactive zones, where they studied examples of profile works and talked with graduates. The event ended with a dialogue, during which first-year students discussed current issues of career growth and choosing an educational trajectory with graduates.
The forum continued with the final track — “ISI.CAREER”, a large job fair organized by ISI students at the Research Building “Technopolis Polytech”. The event brought together more than 350 participants, including students from SPbPU, St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering and Emperor Alexander I St. Petersburg State University of Railway Engineering.
More than 20 large construction companies took part in the forum, such as Setl Group LLC, SKY TEAM Group, Atomenergoproekt JSC, Fertoing LLC, LIIS Engineering Solutions LLC, LSR Group, TITAN-2 CONCERN JSC, GloraX and others.
Participants were able to personally communicate with company representatives, learn about employment opportunities and take part in interactive zones.
The organizers arranged five thematic lectures.
“Design of metal structures of buildings and structures”. The lecture was given by Evgeny Kazhentsev, Development Director of the SPb-Giproshakht company, and Anton Bakulin, Chief Specialist in TIM in the construction direction of the SPb-Giproshakht company. “Features of designing and calculating foundations for machines with dynamic impact”. The speaker was Pavel Pudikov, a 1st category design engineer at the Atomenergoproekt company. “The art of writing a resume”. The lecture was given by Alina Tysevich, HR specialist at Domgazobeton. “Design and calculation of structures of unique high-rise buildings”. The material was presented by Mikhail Nazarov, Chief Specialist in automation of calculations of building structures at the AREH design bureau. “How to get the most out of BIM technologies”. The lecture was given by Evgeny Nesterov, Head of the Information Modeling Department at LIIS Engineering Solutions.
This season, we have noted increased student involvement. The total number of participants in the ISI.FORUM project exceeded 500 people. In addition, the activity of representatives of construction companies has increased significantly. Their number has almost doubled compared to last year. These figures indicate that ISI.CAREER has secured its status as a significant event not only for the Civil Engineering Institute, but also for its students, — shared the director of the ISI.FORUM project, first-year master’s student at ISI Gleb Fomenko.
This year, participants demonstrated a higher level of preparation for interviews and practical training in working in the company, noted representatives of construction companies.
