The Institute of Industrial Management, Economics and Trade of SPbPU and the Institute of Economics and Business of the Russian-Armenian University (RAU) have joined forces to conduct annual International Student Scientific Conference. This event, continuing the tradition cooperation, has become an important platform for discussing current scientific research by young people and strengthening academic ties between universities.

On the first day of the conference, participants of the Higher School of Industrial Management (HSIM) of IPMEiT, together with the Department of Management and Business of the Russian Agrarian University, discussed interdisciplinary research issues covering such areas as management in conditions of uncertainty, sustainable urban development, digital marketing and logistics in business, and problems of decarbonization in industry.

The participants were addressed with welcoming speeches by the Director of the Higher School of Industrial Management Olga Kalinina, the Head of the Department of Management and Business of the Russian Agrarian University Arzik Suvaryan and the Deputy Director for Research Work of Students of the Institute of Industrial Management and Technology Svetlana Shirokova.

Arzik Suvaryan expressed confidence in the need to strengthen cooperation: We see how these events inspire students and teachers to new scientific achievements. I am sure that next year we will again surprise the participants with new achievements.

The conference became a real platform for generating ideas. We were able not only to present our research, but also to receive valuable recommendations from colleagues. The discussion on the application of qualimetric models in risk management of real estate construction in the mountainous areas of the Republic of Armenia was especially useful, – shared his impressions 4th-year student of the HSE “Construction Management” program Artem Androsov.

The Higher School of Public Administration (HSPA) of IPMEiT held a section on “Public Administration and Economic Security” jointly with the Department of Economics and Finance of the Russian-Armenian University. Participants discussed topics such as improving public administration in the field of environmental education, the impact of economic crime on regional security, as well as the balance of socio-economic development of regions and issues of IT audit and digital currencies.

The speakers presented the results of their research, and we were able to discuss current topics in the field of public administration and economic security. The discussion on the influence of the shadow economy and environmental education was especially interesting, commented HSSU postgraduate student Natalia Kulkaeva.

The section “Sustainable Development of Socioeconomic Systems in the Context of Digitalization”, organized by the Higher School of Engineering and Economics (HSE), featured more than fifteen scientific reports on the digitalization of the economy, innovative development of regions, greening of industry, as well as the introduction of digital solutions in logistics, trade and small business. Particular attention was drawn to the presentations of students, which examined the prospects for international trade, the internationalization of the yuan, cooperation between Russia and China, as well as the strategy for sustainable development of Egypt until 2030.

The conference gave me inspiration and new ideas. It was very interesting to hear the presentations of colleagues and discuss current topics in economics. I recommend it to everyone! – noted VIES student Dong Yiqun, studying in the program “World Economy and International Economic Relations”.

As part of the international annual student scientific conference of the Russian-Armenian University, Associate Professor of the Higher Engineering Physics School of SPbPU Maxim Vinnichenko gave a plenary report to postgraduate students, students and, importantly, schoolchildren of the RAU.

In his report, he emphasized: By measuring the intensity of light passing through a sample, we can obtain important information about its optical properties. In this way, we can diagnose a wide variety of materials – both solids and liquids, including biological media such as blood or saliva. For example, studies have been conducted to determine the presence of COVID-19 by spectral characteristics. This is a clear example of the connection between science and medicine.

The associate professor also noted that laser radiation can be used, for example, to assess blood flow velocity.

In some areas of the body where there are no bones and the skin is thin enough – for example, on the wrist or palm – you can illuminate it with a powerful green or red laser and visually observe how much light passes through the tissue. This data allows you to roughly estimate the speed of blood flow in the veins, – said Vynnychenko.

Also, at the site of the Armenian University, Maxim Vinnichenko held open lectures on the course “Optical properties of semiconductors and nanostructures”, which were listened to with great interest by senior and postgraduate students of the RAU in the field of “Electronics and Nanoelectronics”.

Colleagues from RAU highly appreciated the quality of the students’ reports and came up with an initiative to develop cooperation aimed at popularizing science among students, publishing articles and holding joint youth events and conferences on a regular basis.

The best reports were awarded with certificates of participation, and all submitted articles will be published in the conference collection. The joint conference of SPbPU and RAU continues to prove that science is not only research, but also a dialogue that unites minds and cultures for the sake of the future.

Polytechnics also took part in the International scientific and practical conference “Current issues of personality psychology: identity and adaptation”. SPbPU was represented by the director of the Higher School of Social Sciences Anastasia Lisenkova, associate professor of the Higher School of Linguistics and Pedagogy Lyudmila Luchsheva, head of the educational and project art laboratory “ArtPolyLab” of the State Institute of Geography Maria Kukushkina.

Anastasia Lisenkova presented a report entitled “Liquid Privacy: Forced Publicity of Digital Identity”, where she revealed the features of the digital era and their impact on self-identification. Lyudmila Luchsheva presented a report entitled “Dynamics of Attitudes and Motivation of Teachers’ Professional Activity”. Maria Kukushkina presented a study entitled “The Structure of Social Representations of Kindergarten Directors on the Psychological Safety of the Educational Environment”, emphasizing the role of management decisions in creating a comfortable environment for children, and held a master class entitled “My Professional Path” dedicated to career trajectories in psychology and pedagogy.

Participation in the conference allowed us to exchange experiences in conducting current research and to outline new areas of cooperation in the fields of psychology, sociology and other humanities.
