UNN named among the winners of the Smart City National Award

 Lobachevsky University was named among the winners of the Smart City National Award for its contribution to the development of urban economy, taking second place in the Science category. Last year, UNN was second in the Higher Education category.

UNN is closely cooperating with the Smart City Competence Centre within the project of the same name implemented by the Ministry of Construction. It is also working with leading federal companies engaged in “smart city” projects.

“Since 2023, the university has been successfully operating the research and education centre ”Digital Technologies of the Smart City". Under the guidance of their professors and strategic partners, students of the Institute of Information Technology, Mathematics and Mechanics solve cases on the implementation of artificial intelligence in production," said Maria Bogomolova, Director of the UNN Project Office.

This year, almost 400 students will graduate from the UNN Digital Department, having completed the programmes “Modern Technologies of Data Acquisition and Analysis in Smart City”, “Big Data Analytics in Construction” and “Digital Technologies of Smart City Management”.
