16 November was Designer's Day in Russia.
At SPbGASU, events dedicated to celebrating those who turn ideas into drawings and dreams into real objects continued for an entire week, and they began with an exciting "project" quest for students!
The SPbGASU Vice-Rector for Youth Policy Marina Malyutina, Dean of the Faculty of Civil Engineering Andrey Nikulin, Deputy Dean of the Faculty for career guidance counceling Sergey Bovteev, Deputy Dean of the Faculty for educational work Anna Tsarenko, and Chair of the Student Council Valeria Melnik addressed the students with welcoming remarks and congratulations on their professional holiday. All speakers noted the importance of project work for the development of the construction industry.
The graduate departments and Student Council of the Faculty of Civil Engineering organized and conducted a "project" quest: 12 student teams (80 people) completed a route through thematic stations, where they solved practical logic problems related to design.
The winners received their well-deserved awards!
"Today, together with my groupmates I attended a vibrant and engaging quest dedicated to a professional holiday—Designer's Day. We had some very engaging stations where we solved problems, riddles, and logically searched for answers.
A huge thanks to the organizers! We were able to learn something new, brighten up our everyday lives, and most importantly, we were able to get to know the graduate department.
"I'm very impressed with this format! I'm looking forward to more events from the Faculty of Civil Engineering," shared first-year student Arseniy Vakulenko.
Information stands from design organizations and companies were set up on the balustrade, where students could get acquainted with modern technologies: try on VR glasses, learn about the operation of laser scanners, and talk with representatives of employers.
The "Designer's Week" program continued with thematic meetings, a discussion club session, and concluded on 20 November with a lecture from TechProektStroy on the topic of "Application of Information Modeling and Artificial Intelligence Technologies in Development."
