The thrust of the education program is to provide support to gifted children from regional communities showing promise and with proven achievements in the fields of chemistry and engineering to help bolster their professional growth and social advancement. The objective is to help senior school students acquire advanced competences in line with SIBUR’s vision of “an engineer of the future” and to prepare them for enrolling in relevant study programs at higher education institutions.
SIBUR’s grants are used as a vehicle for hand-picking, via a contest-based selection, talented school seniors to attend a specialized career-guidance session at the Sirius Education Center in Sochi.
The Session’s Program
The program includes:
— execution of a research or an engineering/technology-development project focusing on various aspects of analytical chemistry or engineering;
— a series of master classes;
— a series of lectures by, and interactive sessions with experts representing the Sirius Education Center, SIBUR Holding, and the company’s partner universities;
— learning about SIBUR’s operations via meetings with the company’s top management and heads of its production facilities, company presentations and other types of events.
