St. Petersburg Mining university<\/a> continues to expand the boundaries of international cooperation. In 2025, its summer schools welcomed a record number of students – more than 2,000 people from different countries, including India, China, Iran, Africa and Latin America. Launched in 2018, the project has become an important platform for knowledge exchange in the mining, oil and gas industry and digital technologies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

This year the university offered 11 educational programs, most of which are taught in English. Among them are \u201cModern trends in the oil and gas industry\u201d, \u201cDigital mining production\u201d, \u201cIntelligent control systems\u201d and others. Each course includes not only lectures, but also practical exercises in laboratories, as well as excursions to leading enterprises in St. Petersburg.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Of particular interest was the program \u201cManagement in the Mineral Resources Sector\u201d, which was attended by students from the Indian Institute of Technology in Dhanbad. This university, modeled after the Royal School of Mines in London, is famous for training highly qualified specialists in the field of mining.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

In March 2025, a delegation from the Mining University visited India, where they signed a cooperation agreement with the Dhanbad Institute of Technology. The document provides for the exchange of students, graduate students and teachers, as well as the participation of Indian students in summer schools in St. Petersburg.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cWe want to not only adopt the world\u2019s best practices, but also implement them at home,\u201d says graduate student Sunny Chakroborty. \u201cRussian experience in mining and management is very valuable to us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Summer school participants have already visited the university\u2019s scientific sites, including Sablino and Smart Work. Here they got acquainted with modern equipment for geological exploration<\/a> and intelligent production management systems.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cI was especially impressed by the technologies used in Russian companies,\u201d says master\u2019s student Partha Pratim Jana. \u201cWe have to develop a project for the extraction of rare earth metals in the Arctic, and Russian developments will be very useful.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

At the end of the course, participants will defend projects that can be applied in real industry. Organizers note that interest in summer schools is growing every year, and the program may be expanded in 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cWe see how important it is to combine the knowledge and experience of different countries,\u201d says a university representative. \u201cOur goal is to train specialists capable of solving global problems in the mineral resources complex.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Summer schools at the Mining University are not only about studying, but also about cultural exchange. Students from India, for example, were pleasantly surprised to discover a love for Indian cinema and music in St. Petersburg. And the Russian participants, in turn, learned more about the \u201cMake in India\u201d philosophy, which is aimed at the technological independence of the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

The project continues to develop, opening up new opportunities for students and strengthening international ties in the field of education and science.<\/p>\n\n\n

The material was prepared with the support of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science as part of the Decade of Science and Technology<\/sub><\/p>\n\n\n
