Decide on time future profession, directing your strengths and talents in the right direction is the key to the future successful career and effective self-realization. To help future applicants planning to enroll in a medical specialty make the right decision, a scientific and educational project “University Saturdays” was launched at Sechenov University.
The first lectures were held on October 7 in the Anatomical Building of the First Moscow State Medical University. High school students who are already thinking about becoming a doctor came to get to know the country's oldest medical university better. Many of them study specialized subjects in depth while studying in biomedical classes. Parents came along with the students.
The event participants were welcomed by the vice-rector of the First Moscow State Medical University. THEM. Sechenova Tatyana Litvinova. The vice-rector reminded schoolchildren that choosing a profession is a responsible step and explained that “University Saturdays” will help in making a decision.

Creating a database from scratch
Venue address:
Date and time: March 23, 11:00 – 12:30
Any modern man, including schoolchildren, students, their relatives and friends, live in the modern rapidly developing digital information space. Today's daily used terms and descriptions of the reality around us are e-government, digital literacy, interactive information interaction, etc. The era of cognition, the era of knowledge and cognition – this is the leitmotif of today’s humanity. Moreover, all of the above originates from what is the basis of the entire gigantic information environment - from databases and knowledge banks, which are the building blocks of the great wall of knowledge of mankind. Databases are the basis for describing any subject area. Informatization begins with them. The ability to use databases and knowledge, the skills to create them, manage them and improve them are absolutely necessary for modern successful person. And even more so for a programmer, expert, analyst - a specialist in the field of information systems and technologies. Like everything in the world, databases start from scratch and, thanks to human creativity, turn into the very building blocks of the information universe. We will consider these important aspects in detail. The master class will be held in the computer lab.

During storage, peroxide gradually decomposes and becomes completely useless for further use. The master class will use modern analytical equipment, laboratory glassware and chemical reagents. Based on the results of the workshop, each participant will receive a form with the results of the analysis.

The “University Saturdays” project, proposed by the Moscow Department of Education in 2013, not only became firmly established in the capital, but also went beyond its borders. Already last year, universities in many large Russian cities offered exciting and educational events for future applicants and people who never tire of learning something new and interesting. It is quite natural that many are interested in when the University Saturdays 2018-2019 will take place and what will be interesting.
Goals of the educational project
The main goal of the “University Saturdays” project is to increase the level of education of the capital’s youth and provide career guidance. By attending events organized at various universities in Moscow, future applicants can form their own impression of what they can be offered at various departments, learn about new interesting professions and modern achievements science.
It is worth noting that such meetings attract not only high school students. Adults who have already achieved certain success in one field or another also want to visit universities and communicate with professors, because each event gives guests not only useful knowledge, but also a lot of vivid impressions from communicating with the best figures of Russian science.
Event format
Each university independently determines the format of the event. These could be:
- lectures;
- seminars;
- trainings;
- master classes;
- excursions;
- workshops;
- creative activities.
The duration of the event depends on the topic and chosen format. This can be either a short meeting in the format of a study pair or a rather long communication between university representatives and guests, sometimes reaching 4-5 hours.
Among the planned events there are a number of lectures, master classes and workshops from technical universities, combined into a separate project called “Engineering Saturdays”. Such meetings are indicated in the table with a special icon and will be primarily of interest to guys and girls who are interested in learning more about what engineers working in various fields, and also what innovative technologies They plan to implement it in construction and industry in the near future.
Legal Saturdays
Another interesting innovation that will be of interest not only to those who in the future see themselves as a successful lawyer or entrepreneur, because regardless of the field of activity, a competent modern person must be well versed in the legislation of the Russian Federation, know their rights and be able to competently protect their interests if necessary.
The range of topics covered in such lectures is quite wide, from the specifics of setting up your own business to the subtle aspects of international diplomacy.
Meeting Schedule
The upcoming events will take place in 2018 on the following days:
- May 26-27 (Saturday and Sunday);
- June 1-3 (Friday, Saturday, Sunday);
- June 5-9 (Tuesday to Sunday);
- June 13-16 (Wednesday to Saturday);
- June 23 (Saturday);
- July 4 (Wednesday).
This year, schoolchildren, teachers, parents and everyone will be able to:
- touch amazing world physicists;
- discover the limitless possibilities of modern computer technologies;
- learn the basics of creating your own company;
- deepen knowledge of etiquette and festive table setting;
- get to know the profession of a journalist better;
- learn interesting pages from the life of Moscow by visiting exciting excursions.
Exactly what events Moscow will offer as part of the “University Saturdays for the 2018-2019 academic year” project, as well as the full schedule of all meetings planned at different universities, can be found on the website us.dogm.mos.ru.

If you are interested in the “University Saturdays” project and want to attend one of the events offered by the 2018-2019 schedule, you need to familiarize yourself in detail with the information presented on the website and submit an application.
The table shows:
- date and time of the lecture, master class or excursion;
- location of the event;
- age category of guests for whom this meeting is recommended;
- planned duration of the event;
- number of registered listeners.
