"By combining study with work, our graduates have demonstrated their determination, strength of character, and the point tha they truly deserve to have a higher education. I would like to wish them all success in their professional activities. I would also like to remind you that at SPbGASU you can improve your qualifications, undergo retraining, and receive higher education in other fields. Our doors are always open!" said IPTS Director Sergey Shirshikov.
Professor at the Department of Construction Management Aleksandr Rudenko shared his opinion about the final qualifying work of his student, a graduate of the bachelor's degree in the field of study "Civil Engineering" Yulia Taranova. The State Attestation Commission noted the high level of Yulia's final qualifying work on the topic "Design and construction of the building of the puppet theater in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky" and its defense.
"The process of completing the final qualifying work by Yulia Gennadievna was an example of such an attitude to the educational process, which is typical for a researcher and designer, which is what the teachers of our department are trying to teach students. Yulia worked on her final qualifying work in the most motivated way, demonstrating the ability to independently work with regulatory literature, high speed of perception of information, erudition, the ability to improve her competencies while completing the final qualifying work, the ability to develop complex technical solutions independently. I would also like to mention her ability to focus when required, which she demonstrated during the defense."
The members of the State Examination Commission noted the depth of development and practical significance of the master's thesis by Yulia Amoskova on the topic "Strategy for an organization's entry into the warehouse real estate construction market", completed under the scientific supervision of the Head of the Department of Management in Construction Natalia Pletneva. As Natalia Gennadievna explained, the work analyzes the warehouse real estate market in Russia and, in particular, in St Petersburg. Possible directions for the development of construction and engineering companies in the warehouse infrastructure construction and operation market are substantiated: custom construction, construction with subsequent leasing of warehouse facilities, construction of warehouses with subsequent provision of warehouse services. Using the example of a specific organization, costs and incomes were calculated in all three areas, while the construction of a warehouse in Shushary and Fyodorovskoye was considered and the best option for the organization was selected.
Also, the commission highly appreciated the work of Maria Zolotova, a graduate of the master's program in the field of study "Management", on the topic "Development of a strategy for the implementation of information modeling technologies in the construction project management system". The strategy considers key aspects related to the integration of information modeling technology (TIM) in the design, construction and operation of facilities. The main focus is on the creation of an organizational structure of the enterprise and a project management system, which include the distribution of roles and responsibilities, the establishment of hierarchies, and the definition of relationships between different departments. Maria Vladimirovna, using the example of creating an evacuation map of a building using TIM, justifies the effectiveness of the solutions proposed in the work. The master's student's supervisor, Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Management Galina Tokunova noted her creative activity, initiative and high potential for research work. Guided by the significance of the study and the master's student's ability to conduct research, the commission recommended publishing the results of the study, and Maria Zolotova continuing her education in PhD school.
A graduate of the bachelor's degree in the field of "Civil Engineering" Anastasia Podolskaya was awarded a diploma with honours. Anastasia works in her specialty, and the knowledge she gained has already come in handy.
"I studied readily, with pleasure - I also finished school with excellent grades. After school, I immediately entered SPbGASU. Everyone in my family is a programmer, I had no idea what awaited me. In my third year, I went to Finland for six months on an exchange. When I returned, I went to work and continued my studies at IPTS. My plans are to continue working. That's one hundred percent for sure!"
Artem Zholobov, a graduate of the bachelor's degree in the field of training "Civil Engineering", has many positive emotions associated with the university. He warmly remembers his mentors and their lectures.
"The more you work, the more you understand the importance of studying. At work, you do something, and at university you understand why you do it, how everything interacts with each other. Thanks to the university, I work at Atomenergoproekt. If I hadn't studied here, I wouldn't have gotten this job!"
