When the choice of a university arises before a school graduate, everyone tries to find the best one, and for those who are going to become the most highly qualified IT specialist, they cannot find a more suitable institution than ITMO. Passing points here, however, are very high, but admission to the legendary university is worth a lot of effort. This article will provide information on the specialties - passing score of 2017 and past years. The National Research University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics in St. Petersburg is waiting for the very best!
2016-2017
The passing score in universities varies from year to year depending on the competition and the number of applicants. In 2017, as in all previous ones, exams plus minimum USE scores differed from each other at different faculties. However, the difference between the competitions of previous years can be said to be minimal. In ITMO, the passing scores do not change dramatically, because this university is always equally high in demand among applicants. And numerous preparatory courses at the university also prepare quite a lot of proven and probably successful students.
It will be more convenient to consider ITMO passing scores not faculty-wide, but for each educational program, since even within the faculty the differences are quite large. Along the way, it is necessary to dwell at least briefly on the features of each specialization, since such information will be useful to the applicant and will help in choosing. The principle of action of the ITMO selection committee, passing scores and the choice of entrants by mega-direction from the previous years have not changed.
Mega directions and educational programs
Graduate and undergraduate applicants traditionally begin their multi-stage selection with one of five mega-directions. These are: programming and Internet technologies; computer technology and management; biotechnology and low temperature systems; photonics; innovation, management and economics.
After this step, an educational program is selected from a huge number: there are 158 in the master's program and 70 in the undergraduate program. All programs in one article are almost impossible to consider, but on the ITMO website a passing score for the budget and for tuition on a paid basis is always published.
About the nature of the information
We will try to help you become more familiar with the rich selection of specialties that this university provides. This solution is extremely important in human life, and therefore this step should be thoroughly considered. It is for this that detailed information about each specialty is given. In the description there is the whole ITMO: passing score on the budget for applicants, training conditions.
General information about work after graduation from university, career territories, and so on is also slightly affected. There are also curricula where you can see the list of disciplines required for study. The application is submitted specifically for the chosen specialty, that is, this knowledge is the most important for the choice to be right.
Customs Management
Training is conducted in the form of a full-time full-time course. Upon graduation, the qualification of a customs specialist is assigned. The curriculum consists of legal and foreign economic disciplines, including nine core ones, where students study the management of customs activities and customs authorities, as well as personnel in them.
Students learn to qualify crimes in this area, control goods passing through customs and correctly determine their country of origin, analyze the economic activities of enterprises located in the customs sphere. Also studied are economics, commodity science, examination, commodity nomenclature in foreign economic activity.
There are only forty-five paid places, one year of study costs 180,000 rubles. Five year course. Despite the lack of budget places, the competition here is as great as on other ITMO programs. Minimum passing points - from 194.
Computer technology and mathematical modeling
Using mathematical modeling, students study complex systems used in cybernetics, information support of economic activity, computer network protection software, computational nanotechnology and intelligent systems. Key disciplines in the program are: computer work and programming technology, numerical methods, programming methods and languages, computer networks, operating systems, mathematical models of mechanical systems, universal mathematical packages, information security, Fourier method, mathematical models of physical processes, algebra.
Also thoroughly studied are: mathematical analysis, mathematical logic and diskette mathematics, complex and functional analysis, topology and differential geometry, random processes and probability theory, partial differential equations, real analysis, mathematical statistics, number theory, modern methods of analysis and geometry, methods optimizations, mathematical economics and the use of multi-valued mappings, homotopy theory, covariant derivative, nonlinear analysis and topological methods, vector field on spaces, stochastic analysis, mathematical physics, and its geometric methods, multi-valued, and modern analysis and much more. This specialty is extremely popular among applicants who wish to enter ITMO University. Passing points of past years are almost no different from today's - from 284. The average passing score is also high - 94.67.
Computing machines
Networks, systems, complexes and computers are studied here on the undergraduate program: 51st place is budgetary, 51st place on a paid basis. The training lasts four years, each of which for payers will cost 45,000 rubles. The program is built on the basis of basic fundamental training, where there are both mathematical and natural science cycles, that is, this is a comprehensive preparation, but is completely in the field of computer systems and tools. The competition is especially high - there are years when it reaches ten people in one place. In 2016, it was 8.9, which is also a lot even for such a university as ITMO University.
Passing points in faculties are rarely higher. The training is highly professional, focuses on theory and is dedicated to the design technology of hardware and software systems. The main disciplines for applicants will be programming, computer science, logical and arithmetic foundations of computer technology, computers and peripherals, networks and communications, operating systems and much, much more. In 2016, those who chose this program and entered ITMO University had a passing score of at least 197.
CAD systems
This program has a total of 27 budget and 27 paid places, where each of the four years of study must be paid in the amount of 45,000 rubles. We study computerized systems in design, the methodology for implementing projects that use modern information technology. Basic skills in managing IT project resources are also acquired.
The main courses of this profile are the organization of computer systems, system software, digital circuitry, the basics of programming, operating systems, telecommunication networks and computer networks, means and methods of information protection, database systems and much more. According to statistics from 2016, many ITMO faculties had a passing score lower than that in this specialization. Here he was very high and started from 247 points. The average pass rate is also higher than the rest - 82.33. The competition here is usually up to ten people per place.
Automation and management of educational systems
There are only 14 budget and 14 paid places, specialists are literally "piece-wise". Education costs 180,000 rubles a year. Students learn programming and designing information educational systems, study network system administration, database systems management, multimedia technologies, computer security protection and the like. In ITMO (St. Petersburg), the passing score is rarely higher than here. In 2016, it was 264th, and 11.3 people claimed one place.
Students learn the basics of programming, programming technologies, object-oriented programming, bath databases, intelligent technologies and systems, the basics of designing in information systems, telecommunication technologies and systems, the architecture of information systems, algorithms and data structure, electrical engineering and much more.
Information Technology in Design
In this undergraduate program there are 14 budgetary and 14 places on a paid basis. The cost of each of the four years of study is also 180,000 rubles. The basis of modern design is information technology, and therefore the activities of specialists in this field are visual design, three-dimensional modeling, programming, graphic packages, and animation tools. This profession is extremely relevant today, and in ITMO the passing score of 2017 for this program is also high because, in addition to design, students receive fundamental knowledge of information systems.
The main disciplines of this program are based on knowledge of the basics of information technology and design. Not do without computer image processing and design tools. Mandatory 3D modeling and web design, animation and architecture of information systems, multimedia technologies. In addition, Internet programming is part of the core disciplines. Not a single organization or group where information technologies are developed can do without a specialist in this profile. So, to become a designer, you need a passing score of 264, an average passing score of 88, and a competition of almost 12 people in one place.
Applied Informatics
It is not just “piece-work” graduates, but extremely rare specialists. The bachelor's program is studied only by five state students and five undergraduate students (180,000 rubles a year). This is because specialists are trained here focused on production with the preliminary development of the latest information products, technologies and services. It is they who form the industry not only of creation, but also of storage, processing of information, its dissemination in all areas of human activity. Naturally, the training is almost individual.
These programmers are competent in designing software in the most relevant areas of IT: artificial intelligence, for example, surveillance systems, biomedicine, war and space, technical vision and much, much more. The program provides for training cycles - economic, social, humanitarian, mathematical, and, finally, professional. The latter has more than a dozen disciplines focused on programming. The minimum passing score is from 250, but you need to keep in mind that most likely future students are already recruited a year or two earlier - from among those receiving pre-university training at the university. The passing exam score for the budget in ITMO can be anything. However, the competition is still very large - about fifteen people per place.
Applied Computer Science (Economics)
Here, the conditions for admission are very similar to the program described just above. Only six people are recruited - both on a budget and for a fee, the cost of training is also the same. But in addition to the above, a bachelor's graduate in this educational program must have economic thinking, he has studied in depth both the theory and practice of designing IT resources, acquired skills in using a variety of tools to implement economic projects.
He learned not only the databases and software of economics on the Web, administration, and much more that every ITMO student studies. In addition, the graduate thoroughly knows many systems such as 1C. And therefore, in addition to the basic ones, highly specialized disciplines are present in the course. The passing score in 2016 was from 250, the average - 83.33, and the competition was about fifteen people per place.
Wish
Good luck to all those who have chosen ITMO University! It will be very, very much needed if the applicant has not set himself the goal of entering this university many years earlier and has not entered the preparatory courses that ITMO conducts in different cities of the country. Moreover, such courses exist with a remote form of training.
