Science groups
Student professional association ‘Geologists’
We explore the Earth’s interior to develop fundamental geological knowledge and search for new mineral deposits. We study rocks, ores and minerals, geophysical and geochemical fields, the structure of mineral deposits. We generate geological maps and sections, digital models of mineral deposits, structural and tectonic diagrams, forecast maps. We study the geological structure of the Earth, field and laboratory geological data, geological and geochemical data, arrangement and structure of mineral deposits.

Student professional association “Surveying and Geodesic Technologies in Mining, Technologies in Civil Engineering”
At club sessions, students study electronic and laser total stations used to arrange and photograph the layout of mining activities in open-pit and underground mines; we also study satellite systems (GPS). We use the GPS technologies to make e-plans and e-maps. We study the existing legal framework for the mine surveying service of mining enterprises and field survey data obtained using modern tools and devices, and geographic information systems.

Student professional association “Buggy”
This is a research club is for students interested in motorsport. Here we design new components and assemblies for buggy cars and use them to participate in Russian national and international races. We organize annual research and practice conferences, listen to students’ reports on various aspects of scientific support of buggy design. We do computer calculations for buggy structural elements to design lighter, faster and safer buggies. We publish articles on buggy design, including those for top-rated magazines.

Student Professional Association of the Hotel Business and Tourism Institute
We design strategies and development plans for tourism and hospitality sectors across countries. We are interested in both exclusively local destinations and transnational touristic clusters. We learn to craft business strategies for the industry, from eco hotels to celebrity restaurants. We survey various aspects of cross-cultural communication and their impact on the development of tourism and hospitality.
We welcome everyone who wants to build a career in the restaurant and hospitality industry.
The club holds in-person classes twice a month. All projects, articles, works, and presentations are included in student portfolios.
