KSTU is widely represented at the PRO Education exhibition

The PRO Education exhibition, taking place at the Yantarny Sports Palace, opened on 10 November and will run until 13 November.

At 12:00 on 10 November, the official opening ceremony took place, attended by senior officials of the Kaliningrad Region, as well as representatives from the region’s educational institutions and businesses. At the opening ceremony, S.S. Truseneva, Minister of Education for the Kaliningrad Region, congratulated the participants on the start of the event and presented awards to teachers and representatives of businesses and organisations who had made significant contributions to the development of the region’s education system. Among those honoured with a letter of appreciation from the Regional Minister of Education were KSTU staff members: P.Yu. Kovalishin, Associate Professor of the Department of Navigation and Maritime Safety at the Maritime Institute of the BFFSA, and V.T. Levkov, Head of the Academy’s Historical and Cultural Centre for Maritime Education.

Staff, students and cadets from the KSTU educational complex are actively participating in this large-scale career guidance event. The institutes of KSTU and KMFC have set up their own thematic platforms at the venue. Approximately 50 students, cadets, and lecturers are involved in running these thematic platforms. Masterclasses and demonstration sessions are being held for visitors to the exhibition, aimed at introducing them to the in-demand and modern educational programmes and professions available at our university.

PRO Education is the largest regional platform bringing together universities, colleges, technical colleges and leading employers in the region.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the exhibition. The educational event is also dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the formation of the Kaliningrad Region.
