I appreciate skills development in Machine Learning and AI on an industry project. I think the involvement of an industry is really a plus for the course. It corresponds more than my expectations, I easily get involved and I feel even more concerned about the task that the teachers asked me. The way the teachers mixed theory and practical tasks were very pleasant and efficient. It was a very useful experience for me and my engineering carrier.

The program curriculum has many comprehensive disciplines addressing the latest achievements in the field of power engineering. My master thesis covered the topic of relay protection of distributed electric networks with smart grid technology. I investigated modernized power networks with information and communication technologies. This methodology allows distributing power energy as well as increases the efficiency and sustainability of the production. My work has been highly evaluated by the expert commission.

I have chosen ESSENCE master program since it covers the most update trends of power engineering development including smart energy systems, alternative energy sources as well as application of digital technologies in power industry. The program is quite intense with many complicated disciplines and is not very easy to master. I consider it to be very prospective and actual.

I came to TPU to study power systems and grids. I came here mostly for the curriculum but I also wanted to visit Siberia. Thanks to TPU I am working in Russia. And I really think that Erasmus+ project can give many foreigners a chance to discover Russia and to work here like me.

I spent academic year 2019/2020 at TPU studying power systems and grids. I decided to go there because it was an opportunity for me to get the specialization in my field of study, strongly improve my English skills as well as going out of my comfort zone by leaving home for 6 months. Academic mobility experience of Erasmus+ program is essential. And it influences positively life and career as it helps to grow academically, professionally, socially and personally.

Two years ago I understood that I wanted to change something in my life, I wanted to study abroad, to be a part of the European educational program. However, during the pandemic restrictions it was very difficult to go somewhere. But then I knew about ESSENCE master program. I was really happy. Now we are studying in small academic groups, our mentors help us, they work with us individually. It’s really cool. Some subjects we study in English. It’s a challenge but it’s an amazing experience for me.

One of the main trends of modern economy development is digitalization. It is called the principal part of the architecture of the fourth industrial revolution. Digital power engineering will become the part of digital economy. Under these conditions the power sector will need the specialists with expert knowledge not only in the field of power engineering but also information technologies. This has become the decisive factor when I chose the master degree. After one of study at ESSENCE master program I learnt new programming languages (C++, Python), basic and advanced concepts of power engineering development. I am very pleased that I have chosen this program.

There was so many new information for me, about ICT or even machine learning. And after this 1st experience in machine learning, I feel like I want to do this everyday. It was very interesting and well explained.

I love the machine learning course in this course, it helps me a lot in my university.

The core concept behind it is very appealing and I learned a lot.

I was really amazed by the instructors of the summer school. They were always available whenever I had questions. They gave us many valuable lectures, which will be our foundation for the upcoming career. Winning the prize of this Summer School helps me gain more confident in myself. Thanks to all the ESSENCE Summer School organizers!

Participating was interesting and rewarding as it provided useful information about solar panels and their implementation.

Everything was really interesting and cool! While we are studying, we need such experience like ESSENCE summer school!

The mentors are not typical sir/student type, they are very friendly. Loved the consultations. It’s nothing like I ever saw… Thank you!

An interesting event with new notions and competent professors from all over the world.

Currently I am a part of Erasmus+ program learning smart energy systems. And smart energy systems are the future! They are very adaptable, very efficient, very environmentally friendly. I love it. It’s fun to learn new things. I am constantly broadening my horizons. I can find work in Russia, I can find work in Europe.

I am an engineering student majoring in power systems and I took part in ESSENCE Summer School. It was a right decision since I got a lot of useful knowledge from lecturers in the field. Beside that I upgraded the team work skills. This is a great course for students that gives an opportunity to improve the qualification to contribute to the development of sustainable world.
