• Results of the 2018 Admissions Campaign at ITMO University

  … required USE scores for acceptance were for the programs “Information Systems and Technologies” (291 out of 310, with an average 99.1 subject score). More than 400 students enrolled into fee-based positions; their average USE score is 76. This summer, even those whose USE score was below the minimum could still enroll at ITMO Un…

• Mentorship Program: Find a Mentor and Land Your Dream Job

  …basis. When they graduate, students become new mentors and start supporting students themselves. That’s why the fund is called Recursion. “Graduates play a very important role in a university community, as they have experience they can share with students. The idea of launching this mentorship program occurred to us last fall. We wanted our project to appeal to …

• Scientists Create Antilaser for Bose-Einstein Condensate of Ultracold Atoms

  …fficult to describe the interaction of the incident waves propagating in a nonlinear medium. At the same time, nonlinear systems are interesting due to their capability of controlling wave frequency and shape without energy loss. This can be useful in in the development of optical computers. However, the problem is that nonlinear systems are often unstable, and predi…

• Physicists Propose Reversible Adjustment of Nanoparticles Color

  …ates, and Lithuania, researchers from ITMO University have made a big breakthrough by discovering the Fano resonance in perovskite nanoparticles. They also managed to gain control over the resonance spectrum for an array of inorganic nanoparticles. To do this, the scientists proposed a new method of tuning the nanoparticles’ radiation. Instead of synthesizing several…

• INDIN2018 Conference: IoT, Big Data and Breakthroughs in Cyber-Physical Systems Modeling

  …hod of automated generation of formal plant models for cyber-physical systems using active learning. A cyber-physical system is one in which a physical component is controlled by software. Among examples of a CPS is a plane engine, a milling machine or even a coffee maker. Cyber-physical systems require thorough evaluation before a final version is produced; a…

• Houston, We Have a Problem: the Dangerous Subtleties of Space Flights

  … to Earth was jeopardized when the astronauts were carrying out a ballistic descent; that’s when a spacecraft stone-falls to Earth rather than conducting a smoother engine-controlled landing. The stone-fall strategy implies that when entering the atmosphere, the spacecraft should face it with a heat shield that supports extremely high temperatures of around 2,000 deg…

• Schrödinger’s Paradox and Doctor Faustus’ Lab: the Many Faces of “Gatchina Light Nights”

  …ter visionaries Vadim Gololobov, Nick Khamov, and Yury Galkin, this project featured kinetic objects, each functioning on its own idiosyncratic laws, and it was the audience’s role to establish them. In addition to that, Nick Khamov and Yury Galkin decided to up their game by creating a performance installation called “Faustus 3.2 LABOR”, while Vadim Gololobov joined…

  …ht need to use knowledge from all these fields plus a few similar ones. This is why having broad-based knowledge and the ability to come up with original solutions plays a key role. As for training, I would’ve started with reading popular science books by Yakov Perelman. Their names speak for themselves: "Lively Mathematics", " Physics Everywhere", “Tricks and Amusem…
