What does a true St. Petersburg local carry in their tote bag? 🤔
You know the type: the one who’s never caught off guard when the sun suddenly turns to rain (and back again 10 minutes later). They just reach into their trusty sack and pull out exactly what they need.

Meet Umer, a Master’s student studying robotics and AI. Coming from a professional background, he was looking for more than just theory – and at ITMO, he found the right environment.
[ITMO is] intellectually demanding but highly supportive. Curiosity is treated as a professional obligation, not a personality trait. You’re expected to ask questions, and discussions regularly move beyond the syllabus into open research problems. Coming from industry, this was exactly the environment I needed to grow as both an engineer and a researcher.
