SPbPU introduced opportunities for academic collaboration, research, and international scholarships during the meeting
Discussions between HUTECH and SPbPU focused on four key areas of collaboration: organizing online seminars for faculty members and students from HUTECH's Faculty of Information Technology, sharing information about international competitions hosted by both universities, promoting joint research and scientific publications, and working toward the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
Among these initiatives, the online seminars are expected to serve as a flexible platform for academic exchange, allowing faculty members and students to explore advanced topics in digital technologies, artificial intelligence, intelligent systems, and digital transformation. Sharing information about international competitions will also provide students with valuable opportunities to tackle real-world technology challenges while strengthening their ability to work in multicultural academic environments.
The two universities aim to sign an MoU covering education, research, and international academic exchange
The topics discussed during the meeting will continue to be reviewed and further developed as both institutions work toward signing an MoU in the near future. This marks the beginning of a partnership through which HUTECH and SPbPU aim to expand collaboration in education, scientific research, and international academic exchange, particularly in high growth technology fields.
