Low-Code Breakthrough: Omsk State Technical University and BPMSoft Partner on Education and Research
The agreement calls for updated curricula and the integration of digital tools drawn from real IT projects. Students will gain hands-on experience with low-code development and opportunities to participate in applied research initiatives.
Expanding Professional Horizons
The direction of development was outlined by Pavel Korchagin, rector of Omsk State Technical University, who said the university has revisited its mission and now sees it as creating opportunities for the comprehensive development of individuals capable of shaping and applying world-class advanced technologies, thereby strengthening high-tech industries.
Following this approach, Omsk State Technical University and BPMSoft, which is part of the Lansoft IT holding, signed a strategic cooperation agreement in education and research. The partnership focuses on updating academic programs and teaching methodologies, as well as embedding digital tools used in real-world IT projects into the learning process.
Students will gain access to the BPMSoft low-code platform with AI-enabled tools and will be able to take part in applied research initiatives. Company experts are involved in updating профильные disciplines, helping align course content with current demand in the IT sector.
Vasily Kovalyov, head of the Department of Digital Management of Processes and Systems in the Oil and Gas Complex at Omsk State Technical University, noted that the agreement expands students’ academic and professional opportunities and supports broader goals of technological sovereignty in IT.
Reaching the “Boiling Point”
The practical side of the partnership began even before the formal signing. In December 2025, an open lecture was held at the university’s “Boiling Point” innovation space for students in the Top-IT program. BPMSoft specialists discussed career paths, in-demand skills, and the use of process-based approaches in large companies, highlighting how the BPMSoft platform supports low-code development, analytics, and digital management.
Integrating the platform into the curriculum creates a practice-oriented learning model supported by open lectures, applied research projects, and structured career tracks. This approach helps students acquire skills they can use immediately after graduation.
When Industry Shapes the Curriculum
“Preparing future specialists to work with modern domestic software requires close collaboration with universities,” said Yuliya Golyakina, head of the BPMSoft Education program. Cooperation with Omsk State Technical University continues the company’s broader academic partnership strategy. Previously, BPMSoft launched educational initiatives together with Bauman Moscow State Technical University.
“Close integration with industry is a core pillar of our university’s development strategy through 2030 and beyond,” said Pavel Drogovoz, vice rector for science and digital development at Bauman Moscow State Technical University. He emphasized that cooperation with BPMSoft gives students access to up-to-date tools and hands-on experience from leading industry experts, with a strong focus on building engineering teams with real project experience.
The company has since expanded its network of partner institutions to include universities and colleges. In 2024, PSUTI, Samara University named after Korolev, and Samara State Technical University integrated the BPMSoft low-code platform into their courses. At Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, students study BPMSoft as part of their practical training.
Forty Universities and Thousands of Students
The partnership with the Omsk university is part of the BPMSoft Education initiative launched in 2023. More than 40 Russian universities have joined the program, and over 3,000 students have completed training on the platform’s low-code tools.
The expanding network of partner universities and colleges reflects a broader trend toward closer collaboration between IT companies and higher education. In this context, the agreement with Omsk State Technical University appears as a logical extension of an established strategy and strengthens the regional presence of practice-oriented IT education.
