Tomsk, May 15 - RIA Tomsk. Tomsk University of Control Systems and Radioelectronics (TUSUR) has shared updates on their pioneering engineering school, "Electronic Device Manufacturing and Communication Systems." In 2024, the school garnered around 140 million rubles from industrial partners, as reported by the university's press service recently.
Previously, it was announced that TUSUR's "Electronic Device Manufacturing and Communication Systems" school was established in 2022. The school is designed to develop highly-skilled professionals in the realm of microelectronics, photonics, digital devices, internet of things (IoT), and programmable systems for control and communication, as well as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).
"Our advanced engineering school at TUSUR reported their 2024 accomplishments and future growth plans at a council meeting for addressing questions and coordinating activities for advanced engineering schools, presided over by the Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Valery Falkov. Key results included network programs for the space sector, a domestic UAV modem, and high-resolution meters for the oil and gas industry," according to the statement.
It is worth noting that, starting from 2025, the first 30 schools out of 15 regions, including this one at TUSUR, will transition to a new financing scheme, off-budget, and will operate using funds raised from industrial partners.
"A unique aspect of TUSUR's engineering school lies in project-based, technological master's programs. Master's students work in teams on real industrial projects. Over 140 million rubles were raised from partners in 2024," the statement added.
In addition, it was mentioned that at the examination of the results of the school, Ludmila Ogorodova, the deputy governor of Tomsk Oblast for scientific and technological development, Victor Roslyakov, the rector of TUSUR, Anton Perin, the head of the school, Yevgeny ChukavoV, the deputy general director for technology and technology of NPF "Mikran," and Alexei Fateev, the deputy general director of "TESART," participated.
"The school's growth and development plan involves the formation of an electronic devices and unmanned technology cluster in Tomsk Oblast. The centerpiece of this cluster will be a Research Center for Microwave Electronics at TUSUR. To make this initiative effective, we need professionals ready to tackle various challenges," statement from the press service quotes TUSUR's rector, Victor Roslyakov.
"TUSUR's advanced engineering school, focusing on microelectronics, photonics, digital devices, internet of things (IoT), and programmable systems for control and communication, as well as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), is seeking to expand its expertise through technological master's programs, aided by funds raised from industrial partners totaling over 140 million rubles."
"In the future, this engineering school at TUSUR aims to spearhead the formation of an electronic devices and unmanned technology cluster in Tomsk Oblast, with a Research Center for Microwave Electronics at TUSUR serving as the focal point. To achieve this, the school requires professionals who can tackle various challenges in education-and-self-development, technology, and finance."
