Abstract

The paper discusses advanced educational technologies in control engineering implemented at ITMO University. They are module-based education, project-based bachelor's degree program and project tracks based on academia-industry collaboration. All of them are oriented on the students needs and aimed to update the educational processes, reduce its bureaucracy and improve its outcome. The positive experience of such initiatives is already confirmed by a number of successful participations of the students in top level world competitions on robotics.
