Soft Skills Bachelor’s courses

Section	Content
Module description	ITMO University is one of the first universities in Russia to implement courses in soft skills into the curriculum for Bachelor’s and Master’s students. This module includes effective communication, teamwork, self-regulation of one's own state – the skills that are a prerequisite for success. Unlike the “hard” academic disciplines, this course will pay greater attention to practice. After all, this is how new habits and behaviors can be formed. Students will be able to develop skills that will help them not only become more efficient in the process of studying at university, but also improve their quality of life, pave the way for rapid adaptation and career building in their future profession.
How to sign up for the course	The schedule of practical classes corresponding to the lecture stream you have chosen will be highlighted automatically. For first- and second-year students: every odd or even week (depending on your choice) you will have 2 academic hours of lectures and 4 academic hours of practical classes. For third year students: you need to choose 2 out of 11 disciplines. Confirm your choice with the corresponding key – and the system will send us your application. The number of places on the streams is limited! If a convenient time is not available, it means that it has already been completely booked, and you will have to choose another one.
