The Polytechnic University hosted a regional student Olympiad in management. It became the twentieth in the list of subject Olympiads that have been held in St. Petersburg since 2008. The Polytechnic University applied to the city’s Science and Higher Education Committee for the right to hold such an Olympiad and received approval. The Higher School of Industrial Management of the IPMEiT SPbPU took on the organization of the event.
The Olympiad involved 17 universities of St. Petersburg, conducting specialized training in the discipline “Management”. 134 students competed for winning and prize places in team and individual championships.
Vice-Rector for Educational Activities of SPbPU Lyudmila Pankova spoke at the opening ceremony of the Olympiad.
The Polytechnic University is pleased to welcome such a large number of participants who have shown interest in the Management Olympiad. Such city events provide an incentive for the development of students’ scientific activities and contribute to improving the quality of training of university graduates, and provide teachers and student mentors with the opportunity to identify talented young people, those “stars” with whom one can and should work in the future in the senior years of a bachelor’s, specialist or master’s degree, said Lyudmila Vladimirovna.
Vladimir Glukhov, Advisor to the Rector’s Office, wished the Olympiad participants fruitful work and success.
Management must be studied always and everywhere: in the classroom, studying the experience of the best managers and companies, from your own experience of organizing events, at various competitions and contests, Vladimir Viktorovich is sure.
Director of IPMEiT Vladimir Shchepinin noted the importance of holding such events: At our institute, we regularly organize open lectures by practicing teachers, business representatives, hold master classes and practical seminars from industrial partners, as well as events of the IPMEiT scientific student society, which undoubtedly strengthens student educational and scientific activities. Holding a specialized Olympiad is a new format of working with talented students. I wish all participants a successful performance and self-confidence!
The Olympiad was held with the support of the Directorate of Basic Educational Programs, the Department of Youth Policy and the Priority 2030 program. Subject assignments consisted of three blocks: tests, calculations and cases. The works were assessed by a commission, which included representatives of the participating universities.
A little less than a year ago, we applied to the Committee for Science and Higher Education of St. Petersburg for the opportunity to hold the Olympiad. It was important for us to hold a city-wide event in a high-quality, professional and interesting way for students. I would like to thank my colleagues from the Higher School of Industrial Management, with whom we prepared assignments for the Olympiad, dealt with organizational issues, promotion, design and methodological support. We worked as a single team, and that is why everything worked out for us! — shared her impressions the director of the Higher School of Industrial Management Olga Kalinina.
The results of the Olympiad will be officially announced on November 7 at a meeting of the scientific council for approving the winners of subject Olympiads under the Committee on Science and Higher Education of St. Petersburg.
