  …How I became a volunteer The Art & Science Master's program at ITMO is a unique program with nothing similar in Russia. I have been following its Instagram for almost a year and every time I was amazed by how art can be created with the help of scientific knowledge and experiments. When they posted a request for volunteers, I thought…

• An Overview of the Most Interesting Museums in St. Petersburg

  …also known as the Museum of Ethnology and Anthropology. It is considered to be the weirdest place in the city, though, initially, it was founded by Peter the First in 1714 for scientific and religious purposes.

• Who Are Our Graduates?

  …oundation now offering 1 billion rubles to machine learning projects. This foundation won’t invest in just any applicant — first of all, they look for medalists of Kaggle data science championships, ICPC finalists and successful Codeforces contestants. Only then do they list "back-end developers", "outstanding iOS and Android developers" and "other candidates able to…

  … holistic and generic, allowing me to study various subjects. For instance, I really enjoyed pushing myself on coding in the Machine Learning course, even not being a Computer Scientist. Also, I partook many Soft Skills courses. I am sure they made me think about a lot of things regarding myself and how I communicate with others. However, it should be taken in…

• Academic Culture at ITMO University

  …t compare the two experiences. There are several aspects I’d like to outline from this comparison. Attitude towards academic activities It was striking for me how simple science is treated in ITMO. It is a big deal and not a big deal at the same time — in other words, everyone can do it, you’re not an exception. I had no publications or any Scientists

  …Organizing meetings for data scientists, it is difficult to gather in one room people of the same background and specialization. There can be both those who apply ready-made solutions and those who develop methods and algorithms. Programmers hate long formulas on the slides, while mathematicians are afraid of the code. Deep lecture on Natural Language Processing can …
