What's new

This summer in our blog on HabrΓ© we talked about the educational programs of ITMO University and shared their alumni career development experiences. These materials contributed to the course of the admission campaign this year - more than four thousand people applied for the magistracy, and more than twelve thousand people wishing to start their studies in the bachelor's and specialist's programs.

This year, more graduates from other universities (not only from ITMO University) from different cities of Russia entered our master’s program, and for the initial stages of the educational process (bachelor’s), we noted an increase in the average USE score to 92,7. This is 2,5 points more than last year. But many - winners of olympiads and competitions (like ours ITMO.STARS) - managed to bypass the need to pass entrance examinations, and also - from the first day of training, more than seven hundred people will receive increased scholarships.

Gennady is one of our renowned PhD students and a two-time winner ICPC - once again became the best of several tens of thousands of Google Code Jam participants. With him reached the final ITMO University graduates Boris Minaev and Evgeny Kap.

More than four thousand universities located in different parts of the world took part in the study on the basis of which this rating was compiled. The methodology took into account scientific publications in journals indexed by the Web of Science database. To rank universities, scientific articles were tied to fifty-four subject areas: from "Electronics and Electrical Engineering" to "Automation and Control". We managed to improve our position in several of the areas of expertise presented and maintain high results in a number of others. The leaders among the countries whose universities occupy the top in most subject areas are the United States and China.
