  • Nanotech From Birth: How Future Engineers Are Made at ITMO’s “Quantoriums”.

    Some of ITMO University’s staff has become a federal tutor in a childrens’ extracurricular education program organized by the Agency for Strategic Initiatives. The university and the agency have paired up to create the ITMO Nanoquantum program. The university will train tutors who will teach at “Quantoriums” – children’s technoparks that will soon open all over the country. They are intended to serve as a modern version of the “Palaces of the Pioneers” from the olden days where children were brought up as future engineers and inventors. The students at “Quantoriums” will be able to choose among 13 fields of study that correspond to Russia’s scientific and technological priorities of the next 20 to 30 years.
