About the university
Tomsk State University (TSU)
is the largest leading classical research university in the Asian part of Russia and
an acknowledged centre
of science, education,
and innovation. TSU
is one
of the top five universities
in Russia according to
the QS BRICS rankings.

Top 250 universities
in the world (QS Rankings)
Tomsk is one of the top
100 student cities in the world
(Quacquarelli Symonds)
200+ areas of study —
education for everyone
TSU is home to 15,000 students from 70 countries all over the world. TSU is a multinational and multicultural university
Why Higher IT school?
Higher IT School as a faculty
of TSU maintains high
academic standards
and provides high-quality training of specialists
in the Software Engineering field.
Higher IT School is a team
of
teachers
and researchers
who believe that education
is closely intertwined with
the IT industry.
Student-Centered Education
We believe that a student should
be an
active participant in his/her
educational process.
Our students actively participate and win in hackathons, contests, and programming championships.
High-Quality Training
We try to test and implement the best international practices and use modern teaching technologies such as:
• Flipped classrooms
• Projects
• Problem-solving techniques
Learning-by-Doing
We think that programmers learn
when they do something on their own.
So from the first year our students learn
to develop their own games, then move
on to web development, information
security, data science, IoT, etc.
Practical approach
The program has several partner
companies in Tomsk that take students
for internships during their studies.
Students have to complete a competitive selection process, pass a real interview for getting a paid job as a junior programmer while studying.
Career Opportunities
Our graduates work at Microsoft,
Facebook, Google, Amazon and
Goodgame as well as find themselves
at technology startups,
or in their
own businesses.
What is software engineering?
Software Engineering is a field of Computer Science which studies offer in detail training in software production, development, maintenance, quality, embedded software, and app development (games and entertainment).
Software engineers study a little less of fundamental
mathematics than computer scientists (just enough to develop complex systems) and right after completing a
degree
in Software Engineering, they can directly
start working as developers.

Main reasons to study
IT specialties:
High salaries
The IT sphere is the leader
in the international labor market
by the level of salaries. The level
of competition in IT is two times lower
than in the highly profitable sphere
of raw material extraction.
Growth possibilities
This industry has great prospects
for both skill development and career
advancement. A good programmer
can find a job in any country. You can
easily choose a company you feel
close to, whether it is an international
corporation or a small startup.
Elite segment
In this industry, as a rule, there are
exciting and challenging projects,
a comfortable workspace,
and
friendly relations within
the team.

Students will be able to develop programme testing plans.
At the introductory level, they will analyze and design programs (based
on
requirements and
performance considerations).
Also they will learn the main formulas and how to apply them
(the differentiation formulas, formulas in combinatorics etc). And
what else is
important is that
students are going to learn how
to develop complex mathematical reasoning
and build logical statements.
Learn more about programming
Year 1st, Semester II
Students will understand in depth the principles of OOP (Object Oriented Programming). During this
course they will be taught
to creatively approach the development of apps. Also students
are going to work with difficult algorithms
and mathematics.
Study current programming languages,
databases and FrontEnd
Year 2nd, Semester I
In this course students are going to learn to use JavaScriptclasses, basic CSS / HTML techniques, Open MP and threads, functional and logic languages. They will have the opportunity to design and deploy networks, to design a database and a user interface. Also at the end of the course students will develop web pages and a real database application.
Go deeper into Software Engineering
Year 2nd, Semester II
During the course students are going to create a mathematical model of a real-world situation and use that model in simulation. Also they will have opportunities to design databases using Entity Framework and use version control system (GIT), software project management systems as well as to describe the phases of the software engineering life cycle.
Сhoose your way
of developing
in IT/
Software Engineering
Years 3rd-4th
Students`next step is to specialize based on their individual study plans, so they have an opportunity to choose between 3 tracks:
• Practical
Take part in a paid intership in a partner company in Tomsk
or elsewhere (about 20 hours per week)
• Scientific
Start a research project with any research team in the university
• Start-Up
Form your team and work on your start-up idea in IT with the guidance of an experienced mentor
In the end, our students will need to present their Bachelor Thesis based on the experience they get during their track period

Rivals were students from Belarus, Iran, the Republic of Korea, China, Chinese Taipei, and Malaysia
As part of the competition, it was necessary to develop an application, where current statistics on the incidence of coronavirus in the city, country, and world should appear
It should enable the user to self-monitor: -there's a checklist where various symptoms are entered and assessed, Also, the app shows the dynamics of the condition and the likelihood of infection. As well it contains the list of the user's contacts and notifies if someone is infected.
We are happy to know that such global and complex tasks can be solved by HITs students and graduates!
Also, we are proud of any successes of our guys and wish everyone to reach their goals.

HITs and RFF became the winners at WorldSkills in digital skills

We congratulate our student - Gruzdev Roman, who took third place in a decent fight
One of the key objectives of DigitalSkills 20021 is the formation of new competencies and professions that
meet the demands of the global economy.
This year there were three exhibition samples from the Future Skills block: "Motion Design", "Stream Technology Specialist" and "Game Software Testing Specialist"
Why these competencies?
