Who it is for
Our educational activities are aimed at:
- Municipalities and the public sector — cybersecurity, NDT and the introduction of intelligent systems
- The academic community — lectures for universities, doctoral seminars, peer review
- Industry practitioners — training of engineers and specialists in companies
- The general public — popularising science, open lectures, online materials
Forms of education
Lectures and workshops
We regularly organise expert lectures and practical workshops on current IOAS research topics — from distributed fibre-optic sensing to virtual reality in public health. Lectures are given by researchers who publish and apply their findings in practice.
Conferences and panels
We regularly take part in international conferences as both speakers and panel organisers. An example is the talk “Next-Gen Methods in NDT” at the ATG conference (November 2025).
Mentoring of doctoral students and graduates
We provide associate members with mentorship for:
- choosing the research topic and plan
- preparing grant applications
- reviewing professional texts and presentations
- connecting with technology partners
Consulting for municipalities
Practical expert consulting for mayors, municipal officials and IT managers in cybersecurity, IoT and Smart City. The goal: building resilient and transparent digital infrastructure even in smaller municipalities.
Open publications
Our news section publishes detailed descriptions of projects and scientific results in plain language — freely available so they serve not only members, but also students, journalists and anyone interested.
Topics
- Cybersecurity — threat analysis, protection of critical infrastructure, security of municipalities
- NDT and sensors — distributed fibre-optic sensors, AI in defect detection, NDT 4.0
- Biotechnology and IoT — bio-substrates for communication, mycorrhizal fungi
- Public health — VR perimetry, telemedicine, prevention
- Soils and remediation — detoxification, restoration, contamination monitoring
- Research ethics and methodology — open science, peer review, research for the public good
