The "CASE-IN" Championship is among the key events of VolgSTU

The meeting of the scientific and methodological council was held by the Vice-rector for Academic Affairs of VolgSTU I.L. Gonik.

The meeting began with a solemn part – Igor Leonidovich presented his thanks to his colleagues. First thanks to the university from ANO "Russia – the land of opportunities", whose project is the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship. The students of the flagship university performed well in various leagues of the engineering competition, and they were supervised by Ekaterina Anatolyevna Selezneva, who was awarded the award. Another thanks to the VolgSTU team – for their assistance in preparing and holding the finals of the National Junior Technology Olympiad – was presented to Konstantin Vladimirovich Prikhodkov, Acting Dean of the FDP.

Turning to the main part of the meeting, I.L. Gonik told the audience about the extended meeting of the rector's office held yesterday, which was attended by representatives of regional authorities and heads of enterprises. He stressed that based on the results of the meeting, it can be concluded that our graduates are needed by the region's economy. But the question remains how and how to attract them to enterprises. Someone copes with this task more successfully, someone less, but recalling his recent trip to Caustic JSC, Igor Leonidovich noted that all the specialists he talked to were graduates of VolgSTU. After that, the meeting continued to work on the agenda.

And K.V. Prikhodkov was the first to make a report on career guidance work with children. He noted that a lot of people are involved in this work – the admissions committee, ambassadors, faculty representatives, etc. The events that took place this year included more than 10,000 schoolchildren. But just coming to school and talking about the university is not very interesting, it doesn't resonate with the guys. And Konstantin Vladimirovich elaborated on what might be of interest to schoolchildren. These are visits to schools with open lessons and master classes, excursions to the university, project sessions and Olympiads, open days, etc. The speaker also spoke about upcoming events in the first half of next year.

The NMS considered issues related to the new model of state accreditation of educational activities, amendments to the Regulations on the basic educational program of higher education – bachelor's degree program, specialty program, master's program and other issues.
