The Kazan Expo Exhibition Centre has become the venue for the Kazan Digital Week 2024 International Forum. For three days - from the ninth to the eleventh of September - participants will be able to exchange scientific and technical experience, discuss issues of import substitution, import substitution and development pooling.

Volga Region University is traditionally involved in major events - on the first day of the forum Rector Rafis Burganov took part in the plenary session, Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs and Digital Transformation Adelia Pavlova, and then teachers and students of the specialised areas of the university and college visited the ‘Laboratory of Future Professions’. The speakers of the event - leading experts in marketing, industry, big data and genetics - presented their vision of promising career paths and professional skills. 
 


‘Students‘ participation in this lecture is a good basis for the formation of relevant educational programmes that meet the demands of the labour market,’ said Sabina Gizatulina, Head of Practice and Employment Department of Povolzhsky University. 
 


The students were particularly interested in the neuroavatar, which allowed everyone to see themselves in the role of a future professional. The guys had an opportunity not only to get acquainted with promising career directions, but also to prepare for new challenges to be faced in the labour market. 
 


‘It is important for young specialists to imagine what competences will be in demand in the near future. Participation in the Lab helped students to orientate themselves in the changing world and choose professions that will ensure stable and successful development’, - shared Olga Lyubyagina, Acting Head of the Department of Information Systems and Fijital Sports.
