The mission of our center is to establish advanced engineering systems expertise at Skoltech for complex systems lifecycle. The program shall address the entire digital lifecycle from conception to operations, focusing on systems engineering and systems modeling with applications in robotics and space systems. The Center shall work jointly with other Skoltech entities to provide support in engineering related matters.

The vision for the Center is to develop a program in digital engineering systems, which will be recognized as a leader worldwide. The program shall be sustainable to have a solid basis via established long-term arrangements with Skoltech industrial partners, as well as a completive research agenda.

The heart of our system – our students and alumni attracted by job opportunities (either domestic industrial jobs or PhDs opportunities or innovation activity) offered after Skoltech, which in turn improves the quality of the student body. A highly competitive research agenda shall attract industrial partners in Russia and worldwide, which will allow us to offer our expertise to large scale technological programs. We actively pursue funding opportunities from different research foundations (RSF, EC Horizon and etc). Skoltech’s engineering program is considered as the best in Russia.
