Birthplace of startups
As the director of the Institute of Economics and Management of TSU Evgenia Nekhoda noted, the unique equipment will allow students to work not only on start-ups creation, but also, possibly, to engage in research activities.
"In almost all faculties we have the discipline "Entrepreneurship" implemented with a different bias ... I think that here our students will first of all train their social skills – the ability to work in a team, ability to listen and hear, ability to initiate and bring innovations to commercial implementation", – she added.
In addition to applied things, according the advisor to the rector's office of TSU Konstantin Belyakov, in this audience students will also be able to learn how to voice their ideas.
"Entrepreneurial environment assumes that a person is not afraid to express his ideas and generate something new. It’s very difficult for a young person to take the first step. This, in particular, will be taught here. Collective thinking is also important. After all, today the voice of one entrepreneur is the voice of no one, it is necessary to be able to assemble a team. The audience also allows students to develop it", – he noted.
In addition to opening of an audience, within the framework of cooperation Tele2 and TSU plan to conduct joint educational, scientific and technical projects, as well as work work on researches in education.
