Students of the Moscow Aviation Institute and other universities (The Bauman Moscow State Technical University, the Moscow State University of Technology "STANKIN") undergo practical and pre-graduation internships at the company's production and laboratory facilities.
Andrey Yermolaev,
Head of VYMPEL Corporation test center:
"Students' interest grows every year. In 2014, when I started teaching at the MAI, only 20-30% of the graduates were working in the aviation industry or intended to stay in this field. Today during the classes I ask students how they spend their time, where they work and what they are going to do, and about 60-70% of them intend to devote their lives to aviation. I am very pleased that students purposely enter the institute and choose this path. This means that the development of aviation will continue".

THE FIRST HOUSE BUILDING FACTORY: TRAINING OF PROJECT DESIGNERS
The First House Building Factory, founded in 1961, was at the origins of industrial house building in the country. Today, it is one of the most powerful construction bases in Russia. Since 2016, the company has abandoned standard house building and offers customers individual projects implemented in an industrial way. Apart from engineers, builders and technologists, the company searches for managers.
The First House Building Factory has been cooperating with the Moscow State University of Civil Engineering (NRU MGSU) for 60 years. The company has become the largest site for industrial and pre-graduation internships for students. There are 224 graduates of the Moscow State University of Civil Engineering working at its facilities as both line personnel and top managers.
In 2019, the company introduced the Designers' Internship program which was developed to engage today's young professionals in the design of residential buildings of the new custom series. The design work includes the implementation of BIM technologies (building information modeling). Seven undergraduate students from NRU MGSU were accepted for the three-month internship and all of them decided to stay at the company.
