Presentations in English will take place at 15:00 (UTC +3). Registration is mandatory.

During the webinars, enrollees will learn the content of programs, conditions of enrollment, and features of the educational process. Participants will also learn about the opportunities for research at ETU "LETI," the skills they will acquire during their studies, and job prospects. Employees of the university's international departments will tell about the academic mobility opportunities, seasonal schools available to students for free, and grants. Participants will have an opportunity to ask any questions they may have about the programs or conditions provided to students of the university.

The target audience of the webinar is 2020 enrollees with Bachelor degrees who would like to continue their education in English and acquire a Master’s degree in technology. 

Schedule of webinars on ETU "LETI" international programs

On May 19, there will be a webinar on the Computer Science and Knowledge Discovery program, which offers students profound training in the fields of mathematical modeling, data processing and analysis, and software development. It covers the most recent trends in artificial intelligence and machine learning, signal and image processing, parallel and distributed computing, intelligent and embedded systems, pattern recognition, and biometric technologies.

On May 21, enrollees will be able to learn about the Laser Technologies program. Students of the oldest English-taught programs at ETU "LETI" will gain knowledge of quantum electronics and laser equipment, skills of practical work with modern laser techniques and laser measurement equipment, and ability to research for the development of new laser measuring devices and systems.

On 26 May, the webinar will be dedicated to the new Heritage Science graduate program, a new, rapidly developing field related to the research, restoration, and documentation of artworks using the latest achievements of science and technology. In 2019, ETU "LETI" held first summer school in this field, which, according to the organizers, showed good prospects for creating a full-fledged joint high-level educational program.

On May 28, ETU "LETI" representatives will talk about the program on Photovoltaics and Solar Energy Technology, in which students will study the underlying physical principals and material science aspects of photovoltaics, technology and metrology of solar modules, equipment, design, and maintenance of solar power plants.

On June 2, participants will get acquainted with the Efficient Electric Power Industry program aimed at making technologies more energy efficient. During the training the students will get acquainted with modern electrical equipment with high performance and low energy consumption. The training program includes modeling processes in the power network for its optimization and basic principles of an energy audit, which is the main tool to control energy consumption.

On June 4, there will be a webinar on the graduate program on Systems and Technologies in Digital Healthcare​ (in the field of Biomedical Engineering), which provides training for specialists in biomedical engineering to use modern information, telecommunication and computer technologies, and telemedicine for remote monitoring and health assistance of outpatients with chronic diseases.

On June 9, those wishing to enter ETU "LETI" will be able to learn about the Automation and Mechatronics program, in which students learn the principles of robotics and mechatronics, mechatronic and robotic actuators, modern technologies of microcontroller application. The program gives students a deep theoretical knowledge of modern methods of automatic control theory, in particular, the methods of analysis and design of nonlinear, adaptive, and intelligent control systems.

On June 16, ETU "LETI" representatives will talk about another new program on Technology Innovation Management.

On June 25, a webinar dedicated to RF, Microwave and Terahertz Engineering of Wireless Systems will take place. The program is to train students who will successfully manage professional activity in a globally competitive environment in such an interdisciplinary field as design and technology of the state-of-the-art high-frequency, microwave, and terahertz devices for communications, radar, and other wireless applications.

At the end of the series, it is planned to hold an overall webinar, which will help enrollees to decide on the program.
