Graduates of educational institutions cooperating with Norilsk Nickel easily find work with a decent salary. Such data are presented in the first ranking of graduates’ employment and income, prepared by the Russian Ministry of Labor. Experts assessed how many former students were working in their field two years after graduation and what their average income was.
Among the educational institutions participating in Norilsk Nickel’s targeted training programs, the leaders are the Monchegorsk Polytechnic College and the Norilsk College of Industrial Technologies and Services. In the category “Engineering, technology and technical sciences”, the Polar State University took fourth place. Also in the top 5 were the Transbaikal Mining College named after M. I. Agoshkov, Taimyr College and Pechenga Polytechnic College.
Some of Norilsk Nickel’s partner universities have surpassed employment and the income of graduates even from capital universities. Among them are Murmansk Arctic University, Irkutsk Technical University, Ural Mining University and Polar State University.
80% of Polar State University graduates work in their specialty. As rector Evgeny Golubev noted, such results became possible thanks to close cooperation with Norilsk Nickel.
“The employment of 98% of graduates and a place in the top 5 is the result of the joint work of the university and the company. Together we are developing educational programs so that students receive up-to-date knowledge and skills,” explained Golubev.
Norilsk Nickel’s cooperation with educational institutions helps young specialists quickly start a career in the industry. More information about student support programs can be found on the company’s official website.
Choosing the right school is the first step to a successful career. Universities and colleges participating in Norilsk Nickel programs guarantee a sought-after profession and a high level of income after graduation.
