Teaching robots to think and act 🤖
Industrial robots are great at routine tasks, but struggle to adapt. At ITMO’s Laboratory of Embodied Intelligence in Robotics, researchers are developing systems that enable robots to perceive their environment and act autonomously.
Led by Sergey Kolyubin, the lab collaborates with major industry partners and presents reports at A*-level AI conferences. Students working here gain hands‑on experience alongside experts and earn up to 250,000 rubles a month.

Krestovsky Island: a stroll among luxury 😉
Tucked between the Neva and the Gulf of Finland, this green oasis is known for its historic villas and prominent dynasties. But here’s the secret: the island doesn’t care about your wallet.
Stroll along the waterfront, breathe in the fresh air, and watch the sunset beside the city’s largest stadium. Rent a bike, find a quiet bench, or simply get lost among the trees.
➡️ Explore Krestovsky Island like a local
