Information security training opportunities available for residents of Camchatka for targeted advancement.
In the coming academic year, Kamchatka Krai is offering unique opportunities for students interested in Information Security. The regions' Ministry of Labor and Development of Human Resources has announced the possibility of concluding target education agreements with Amur State University (Blagoveshchensk) and Admiral G.I. Nevelskoy Maritime State University (Vladivostok).
However, the specific details and requirements for these agreements have not been clearly outlined on the search results for the universities' websites. To find more information, potential applicants are advised to visit the universities' official websites, reach out to their admissions or international relations departments, or consult Russian education portals.
Typically, Information Security programs require a bachelor's degree in a related field such as Computer Science or Information Technology. Proficiency in Russian is essential, as most programs are taught in Russian. English proficiency may also be required for international students or specific programs. Entrance exams or interviews, minimum GPA requirements, and letters of recommendation from academic or professional mentors are also common requirements.
The target education agreements in Kamchatka Krai are designed to address the shortage of qualified information security specialists in regional authorities and subordinate institutions. These agreements guarantee subsequent employment in government agencies immediately after graduation. The subject of the agreements is information security specialists, and the state covers all education expenses for those who enter into a target education agreement.
To apply, applicants must submit a request on the "Work in Russia" digital platform by July 25, 2025, simultaneously with their application to the chosen university. The deadline for submitting requests for the target education agreements is also July 25, 2025.
According to Grigory Bondarenko, Deputy Minister of Digital Development of Kamchatka Krai, these agreements provide an opportunity to obtain a sought-after profession.
