Sergey Tokarev About the SET University Initiative to Provide Free Education
Sergey Tokarev, co-founder of Roosh and SET University, a Ukrainian technological university, provides a unique opportunity for Ukrainian students to become holders of scholarships that cover 70% to 90% of tuition costs. This initiative aims to support the education and development of young talents in the country. Within the framework of this program, ten grant places have been opened for students willing to study in the master’s programs “Cyber Protection” and “Informatics and Innovative Engineering”. Students who dream of a career in information technology and cyber security can take advantage of this chance. Details about scholarship opportunities and program benefits can be found on the SET University and the Roosh Facebook page.
According to Sergey Tokarev, the courses will provide students with unique opportunities to immerse themselves in the world of cyber defense, research blockchain technologies, and expand their knowledge in the field of artificial intelligence.
SET University has partnered with the UC Berkeley-Fisher Center for Business Intelligence at UC Berkeley to create programs for entrepreneurs and provide students with a variety of opportunities to develop innovative ideas and projects. As part of their theses, students will have to establish a startup with the support of a university accelerator, which is one of the options, or develop an information technology solution for a modern technology company.
SET University provides five scholarships for each of the programs. Representatives of the Armed Forces and the National Guard of Ukraine, children of combatants, Ukrainian women seeking IT education, and migrants from conflict zones can participate in the competition.
Earlier, Sergey Tokarev supported the initiative to allocate five scholarships for master’s and micro master’s programs to fully cover the tuition. He stressed that education is an investment in the future of Ukraine.
The SET Scholarship is a charitable initiative that provides an opportunity for Ukrainians to receive an IT education.
As Sergey Tokarev noted, this initiative is financed by investors. SET University is committed to expanding its scholarship program to make higher education more accessible to Ukrainians and invites every citizen and organization willing to take part in this initiative.
In addition, SET University is organizing a free three-day business intelligence training for Ukrainian women called “Leading with Confidence in the AI World”.
The workshop will be moderated by Gauthier Vasseur, Director and Professor at the Center for Business Intelligence at the University of California, Berkeley-Fisher. He trains business leaders to apply Data Science and analytical methods to develop and implement business strategies.
Co-hosted by SET University, led by Sergey Tokarev, and the UC Berkeley Fisher Center for Business Intelligence marks the beginning of their important and productive collaboration. This partnership will include the creation of long-term innovation programs to support entrepreneurship and other meaningful initiatives.
As a leading non-profit educational institution, SET is not limited to teaching academic knowledge about technology and entrepreneurship. This university is unique in its emphasis on the practical application of knowledge. Here students have the opportunity not only to study but also to use their knowledge in practice, participating in projects and initiatives.
Sergey Tokarev also notes that since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale aggression against Ukraine, SET University has been actively working to create and support various educational programs and initiatives aimed at ensuring the availability of education in the field of information technology. It also actively supports and develops Ukrainian startups, contributing to the country’s technological education and providing opportunities for young Ukrainians.
