Project-based education is a idea of Rector Aleksandr Shestakov. The work on the project began at the strategic sessions of SUSU, and further on the model was being developed by the participants of the SUSU Think Tank – a university team who took training in Management School at Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI). Today the team is headed by Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs Andrey Radionov. Elena Ponomareva and Aleksandr Shishkov act as the project managers. The team also includes Head of Academic Services Department Igor Sidorov. All the directors of Schools and academic secretaries were working on the new flexible curricula. The Quality Assurance Office also actively works as part of the team (the Office Head is Dmitry Kharitonov, Deputy Head is Maksim Nesterov).
A very efficient and important part of the team are the people who share the ideology of project-based learning and who do very much for that: directors of the Institutes and Schools, the project-responsible persons within the Institutes and Schools. To make timely and quality decisions, a seminar-meeting on the project-based learning fulfilment is organized, among the participants of which are projects’ supervisors, academic secretaries, and heads of the structural divisions. The meetings within the seminar will be held twice a month.
