Taking everything into account, here’s what we have for you!

🌱 Buy a houseplant
Leaves on the trees will soon change color, but you’ll have something evergreen to feast your eyes on. For tips on how to choose a plant and take care of it, read our guide for indoor gardeners.

🧁 Treat yourself with a comforting dessert
You deserve a huge piece of cake to soothe the mourning for a bygone summer. Whether you crave a classic Russian dessert or a cinnamon bun, rest assured the city’s many bakeries have it all.

🤫 Make up your mind in silence
Do you need some me-time in serenity before the bustling year kicks in? Maybe the Hogwarts-like reading halls of the National Library of Russia can be your place of power?

🎶 Compile a summer playlist
Preserve your special memories of the warmest months in a musical time capsule, just like our team did!

We hope your holidays were great – and wish you an even better academic year!

In Russia, September 1 is a holiday known as Knowledge Day. What better way to celebrate it than by learning all of last week’s big headlines from ITMO?

🧑‍🏫 Andrey Bogdanov, a researcher at ITMO, explains the art of talking to kids about nanophotonics and metamaterials while reflecting on how to bring up future scientists.

✍️ Learn all about the great Russian poet Alexander Pushkin and the places in St. Petersburg that commemorate his life and work.

✒️ Read this fascinating article about the history of calligraphy in ancient Russia.

🌠 Last year, ITMO transformed its education system by shifting towards a new development model. At this year’s ITMO CONF, researchers, lecturers, and representatives from industry giants discussed ways to implement this new model.

😣 Are you finding it difficult to regain focus after holidays? You’re not alone. Elena Karpova, a PhD in psychology and a lecturer at ITMO, explains how to bounce back from post-holiday blues.

This weekend went great thanks to ITMO.GO 😉

On September 2, our first-year students officially became a part of our big ITMO.Family! 

Is there anything better than a warm welcome from the rector and an open-air concert to get into the spirit of the new academic year?
