The industrial area also does not pass by qualified personnel. Here, recent students find their application in organizations dealing with forestry and agriculture, mechanical engineering.

Direction "Informatics and Computer Engineering"- one of the most stable in terms of high demand in the world. The demand for specialists in the field of programming, computer science and work with computer technology (engineers and technicians) began to grow back in the 90s, in the 2000s it became steadily high, which remains to this day. And it is obvious that this situation will continue for more than one decade.

"Informatics and Computer Engineering" is a key group of specialties in the computer industry. Software is the basis for the operation of both traditional personal computers and more powerful ones designed for scientific purposes or to support the operation of large enterprises. Graduates of universities with a degree in Informatics and Computer Engineering work in companies such as Microsoft, Oracle, Symantec, Intel, IBM, HP, Apple. But if the companies listed above belong to the so-called "old guard", then today good programmers also work in such companies as Google, Facebook, Amazon, PayPal, EBay, Twitter, etc.

Graduates of the undergraduate or graduate degree in Computer Science and Computer Science can hold positions in the following areas:

• software development: this includes system analysts, programmers, developers. During the training, a lot of attention is paid to learning programming languages ​​such as C ++, Java, etc. It is important to understand that even after graduation, such specialists must constantly take advanced training courses in order to keep up with new trends and changes in programming languages;
• software engineering (or software for computer technology and automated systems) - this includes a more complex development of software products at the intersection of computer technology, engineering, mathematics, design and teamwork;
• quality control and testing;
• development of technical documentation;
• technical support;
• management of large databases;
• Web design;
• project management;
• marketing and sales.

Over the past decades, the world is rapidly overgrown with new technologies, and specialists in the field of informatics and computer technology are needed more and more. Graduates will have career prospects as software engineers, web designers, video game developers, systems analysts, database managers, and network administrators.

Another area of ​​specialization is direct work with computers, complexes, systems and networks. It is a significant subsector of the computer industry. Engineers and technicians learn to work with hardware, that is, in the production of equipment and computers, as well as a variety of gadgets such as printers, scanners, etc.
Computer development begins in the applied research departments of large companies. Teams of engineers (mechanics, electronics, electrical, manufacturing, programming) work together to develop, test and manufacture components. A separate area is marketing research of the market and production of the final product. It is in this sector that there is the greatest shortage of qualified specialists familiar with programming, robotics, automation, etc.

But if these specialties can be classified as quite traditional for this direction, today a number of professions that simply did not exist about 10-15 years ago are gaining more and more popularity.

• User interface development: These specialists are required in companies such as Electronic Arts, Apple, Microsoft and others involved in the development of video games, mobile applications, etc.
• Cloud computing: Many companies like Google, Amazon, AT&T and Microsoft need professionals such as a cloud software developer, a cloud network engineer, and a cloud product manager.
• Processing and analyzing large databases: specialists in processing large databases (Big Data) can work in a wide variety of companies - in business and the financial sector, e-commerce, government agencies, medical organizations, telecommunications, etc.
• Robotics: these specialists are in demand in large industrial companies, for example, in mechanical engineering (especially in the automotive and aircraft industries).

Universities that offer training in the field of "Informatics and Computer Engineering" include: N.E. Bauman, MEPhI, MIREA, MESI, MTUSI, NRU HSE, MEI, MAI, MAMI, MIET, MISIS, MADI, MATI, LETI, Polytech (St. Petersburg) and many others.

Minors

The entire spectrum of world knowledge at the highest level is available to the student of UrFU. For example, this manifests itself in a tool such as a minor. Minors are educational programs specifically designed to provide students with knowledge and competencies in areas other than the mainstream of study. An important feature is that when teachers prepare such a minor module, they initially strive to make it interesting and exciting for a wide range of students, and not only for students with specialized training. The opportunity to master the minors appears in the 3rd year, and they last one year (fall and spring semesters). In each semester, a student can choose only one minor and the one who successfully completed the training and passed the test will be issued a certificate

Difficulties a student may face

1. Lack of time and inability to correctly distribute it
2. Issuance of a large number of different kinds of work at the end of the semester for a short period
3. You have to learn a lot on your own, a large amount of homework
4. Insufficient level of the school knowledge base for mastering new, more complex subjects
