What disciplines are covered in the program?

The program combines fundamental and applied knowledge, covering key areas: mathematics, data analysis, machine learning and computer vision. The program instructors are experts from leading companies who not only have deep theoretical knowledge, but also share real-world experience gained while working on large-scale projects in the industry. The partner of the program is Neimark IT Campus, which helps us to train high-level specialists.

The training program is filled with courses that meet modern standards and demands for specialists.

In two years you will master the following areas:

• Deep Generative Models - creating realistic images and videos.
• 2D Image Processing - image processing and analysis.
• Visual Geometry and 3D Image Processing - working with 3D reconstructions.
• Modern Tools for Solving Computer Vision Problems - mastering actual tools.

What do we give to students?

We offer our students comprehensive training that includes theoretical study of the fundamentals of artificial intelligence, machine learning and computer vision. In the process, students acquire practical skills by working on real-world projects, such as developing mobile applications and creating 3D models. Upon completion of the program, graduates have the expertise to independently develop and implement solutions based on AI and computer vision technologies.

After training on the program you will become a sought-after specialist capable of working in companies of YADRO, SBER, Yandex, as well as in leading foreign companies. You will be able to solve complex problems in the field of object recognition, image processing and implementation of artificial intelligence in various industries. In addition, the program opens up opportunities for a scientific career or launching your own startup, providing all the necessary technical skills and knowledge to successfully implement ambitious projects.
