Moscow Polytech postgraduate student presented university management system based on digital twins
A digital twin of a student represents itself a detailed digital profile, containing unique data about the potential and achievements of a student. Application of Big Data technologies and machine learning, based on this profile, will make it possible to offer students their personalized professional training trajectory most suitable for them.
Implementation of the management system based on digital twins brings many benefits to universities. It will increase economic efficiency by optimizing the resource use and logistics; will allow reducing risks by modeling complex scenarios in a safe virtual environment and will provide scalability and adaptability to changing conditions.
In addition, the analysis of digital twins’ data will provide valuable information for making high-quality managerial decisions at all levels – from academic staff to administration of the university. But the main thing is that implementation of such a system makes it possible to considerably improve the results of students’ academic performance through a personalized approach, based on a digital profile, thus making education more purposeful and exciting; it will increase the student involvement and their satisfaction with educational process.
The digital twins are expected to change the approach of universities towards management and will bring higher education to a qualitatively new level.
The report of Alina Alexandrova caused a serious discussion. A wide spectrum of questions was discussed, including the issues of informational security of the project. The ideas and recommendations will be used in further work.
According to Kirill Pitelinskiy, a scientific consultant of the project, “now it has become possible to optimize educational process with the help of a digital copy of a student – his digital twin. Application of Big Data technologies and machine learning will make it possible based on a digital profile of a student to offer him the most suitable individual trajectory of professional training”.
“As a result, in addition to a graduate diploma of a candidate for the vacancy, an employer will get an opportunity to study in detail knowledge, skills and abilities of the applicant based on his digital profile, generated in a university. This will allow to select the most appropriate employee,” - underlined Kirill Pitelinskiy.
The report on the development of the management system based on digital twins was presented by Alina Alexandrova on May 23, 2024 at the International Scientific and Practical Workshop of young scientists “Digitalization of Society: Current State and Prospects”, organized by the Moscow Polytechnic University in cooperation with leading universities of Russia, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
