"The construction industry is increasingly focusing on the digital technologies. This is true for both the project implementation stage — BIM, IoT, etc., and the operation stage — from intelligent pass entry or building resource management systems to smart homes, offices and cities. To provide future professionals with the relevant subject knowledge in this field is of high priority for Pridex. Therefore, the cooperation with Moscow Industrial College will not be limited to theory, Pridex will offer students real practical cases to solve and participation in the development of a full-fledged product for a smart office".
- Vasiliy Bersenev,Director of Moscow Industrial College
"It is impossible to educate highly qualified professionals without the involvement of employers. Moscow Industrial College provides the educational programs in close cooperation with the leading sector employers of the city. Our students gain workplace experience at the very beginning of their career development by undergoing internships at the sites of the industry leaders. By the time they graduate, young specialists have already gained experience in interaction with employers and understand the employer’s needs".
