Public lectures were available for participants throughout the whole Festival. As for students of secondary schools, they could attend profession-orienting consultations, contests in Robotics and in Ship Modeling. The business agenda for universities and business companies included roundtables, the foresight session “Generation 2030”, and a meeting of the Educational Cluster Council of South Russia.

The projects presented by ASU were of real interest for both university students – future specialists in Electronics and Robotics – and students of secondary schools.

At the end of the Festival, our University was awarded with a letter of thanks for its contribution to organization of this Festival.
