KSTU successfully solves economic issues of the Kaliningrad region
The Day of Russian Science at Kaliningrad State Technical University was marked by good results. Today, KSTU scientists make discoveries and invent new technologies in various areas of technical and industry-based science.
KSTU, as a leading specialised university of the Federal Agency for Fishery (Rosrybolovstvo), solves not only the problems of the fishing industry, but also the issues of providing personnel in the Kaliningrad region, scientific research and innovative developments of organisations in the real sector of the economy.
Scientific works and technological developments of KSTU scientists find their application in various spheres of life, starting from public catering, production for animals, medicine, fish production and processing, shipbuilding and defence technologies.
For the last five years, KSTU scientists have conducted and patented more than 20 promising potential breakthrough developments in various fields.
University scientists received patents for the overwhelming majority of their developments, some of which have been implemented in production, helping in the rehabilitation of patients and contributing to the Russian import substitution programme.
According to N.A. Kostrikova, Vice-Rector for Research at KSTU, Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Associate Professor, the university has created and is constantly developing infrastructure for scientific research, including the Research Centre of Shipbuilding, Chemical and Analytical Resource Centre, Centre for Advanced Protein Utilisation Technologies. The university actively develops cooperation with the enterprises of the region and the fishing industry, scientific organisations and universities, and development institutes. Two subgroups of the working group of the Marinet National Technological Initiative were organised on its basis, in the directions of Human Capital Development and Biotechnology, Aquaculture and Fishing Technologies.
Natalya Anatolievna also noted that the university actively cooperates with the Foundation for Assistance to Innovations in the framework of the UMNIK and UMNIK MARINET programmes. In recent years, more than 30 students, cadets and postgraduates of the university have become winners of the competition UMNIK, University Startup of the Foundation for Assistance to Innovations.
- We are an active participant of the federal project, the University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform. The only university Tochka Kipenia (Boiling Point) in the region was created and is actively developing on the university's platform, on the basis of which a grant to create an entrepreneurial Boiling Point is being implemented from 2022, - said N.A. Kostrikova.
To popularise scientific activities, the university publishes four scientific journals included in the list of publications of the Higher Attestation Commission (VAK) and in the system of the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI): KSTU News, Tidings of the Baltic Fishing Fleet State Academy, Baltic Economic Journal, and Journal of Youth Science.
Four Dissertation Councils on seven scientific specialties operate at the university today. The postgraduate study for training personnel with higher scientific qualifications is actively working.
For the high level of results achieved in mastering knowledge and research work, university students are annually awarded scholarships by the President of the Russian Federation, the President of the Russian Federation in priority areas, and the Government of the Russian Federation in priority areas.
