The Graduate School of Management of St. Petersburg State University (GSOM SPbU), together with the University 20.35, is launching an updated format for the Modern Manager Olympiad for applicants to the Business School. Participants will be able to take courses from the University 20.35 and other partners. Winners will receive additional points in admission to GSOM SPbU bachelor's programs in 2021.

 

“An important task of the Olympiad is to acquaint high school students with their future profession. The assignments for the qualifying stage are designed in such a way as to identify the leadership potential of the participants and the behavioral patterns that a successful manager needs today. At the final stage, with the help of our corporate partners, we will immerse the participants of the Olympiad in a real business atmosphere and select the best of the best — the future captains of Russian business,” said Vitaly Mishuchkov, Director of GSOM SPbU Вachelor programs Office.

 

The Olympiad will be held in two stages. The first qualifying stage starts on October 15 and runs until January 11, 2021. During the Olympiad, participants will have access to online courses and webinars on topics relevant for a modern manager. The second stage will last from February 1 to March 14, 2021 and will be held in the format of a business game. 

 

Russian and foreign high school students can take part in the Olympiad. Testing within the first stage is available any day at the University 20.35 after registration >>.
