Freshened Up Version:
Tomsk, May 15 - RIA Tomsk. Tomsk University of Control Systems and Radioelectronics (TUSUR) shared their school's progress on "Electronic Device Manufacturing and Communication Systems," a top-tier engineering program under the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education. According to recent reports, the school attracted roughly 140 million rubles from industry partners in 2024, as announced by TUSUR's press office last Thursday.
This school was established in 2022 and is aimed at churning out highly skilled professionals in microelectronics, photonics, digital devices, internet of things (IoT), as well as programmable-hardware complexes for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) control and communication.
"The cutting-edge engineering school at TUSUR presented its 2024 achievements and future development plans at a meeting chaired by Valery Falkov, the head of the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education. Key accomplishments include new networking programs for the aerospace industry, a domestic UAV modem, and a high-precision measurement unit for the oil industry," the statement reads.
It's also worth mentioning that, starting from 2025, 30 schools from 15 regions, including the one at TUSUR, will move onto a new stage of funding, beyond the governmental budget, and operate based on funds raised from industrial partners.
"The core strength of TUSUR's school lies in its project-based master's program format. Master's students work in teams on real projects for industrial partners. The amount of funds raised from partners in 2024 amounted to around 140 million rubles," the announcement added.
Notably, the Tomsk region is becoming a hub for the electronic devices and unmanned technology cluster. The backbone of this cluster will be the Advanced Microwave Electronics Center, soon to launch at TUSUR. To ensure its success and smooth operations, we need skilled professionals to tackle various challenges.
According to TUSUR's press office, key figures like the deputy governor of Tomsk Oblast for scientific and technological development Ludmila Ogorodova, TUSUR's rector Victor Rublevsky, the director of the engineering school Anton Perin, Evgeny Chukavov, the deputy director of non-profit organization "Mikran" for technology and technology, and Alexei Fateev, the deputy general director of "TESART," participated in the defense of the school's results.
The development and growth plan for the engineering school at TUSUR involves establishing an industrial cluster dedicated to electronics and unmanned technology. This cluster will foster collaboration between academia, industry, and government, as well as support startups and established companies in these industries. The Advanced Microwave Electronics Center at TUSUR will form the core of this cluster.
- The growing partnership between TUSUR and industry partners, as evident in the 140 million rubles raised in 2024, will enable the financing of education-and-self-development programs focused on technology, such as the project-based master's program in microelectronics and IoT.
- TUSUR's strategic plan includes the creation of an industrial cluster specializing in electronics and unmanned technology, which will bridge the gap between academia, industry, and government, opening opportunities for finance and innovation in finance, technology, and education-and-self-development industries.
