Programming based on 1C.

​ ​

Business analytics is the most promising IT profession

BigData is the future of computer science;

Business optimization based on analytics will be the main method of competition in the future;

Of the six fastest-growing IT specialties, three are related to analytics.

​

Typical tasks of a business analyst:

​

collection and analysis of customer requirements;

researching;

business process modeling (BPMN, EPC, IDEF, UML languages);

analysis of large volumes of data;

development of databases for production management systems;

staging technical assignments for software development or modification;

building processes for collecting, storing and analyzing data;

​

BaseGroup Labs Certificate

UNGASU master's students who successfully complete analytics courses can receive a certificate from BaseGroup Labs, the manufacturer of the domestic analytical platform Deductor.

​

Research by master's students of NNGASU

In addition to in-depth study of business analytics and 1C programming, masters of applied informatics take part in scientific research in various applied areas. Below are examples of some master's studies:

Development of algorithms for converting geographic coordinates for a geographic information system

Algorithms implemented on JavaScript, are used to link geographic coordinates in Yandex maps with graph coordinates of waterways used in voyage planning systems of river shipping companies.

Determining a suitable algorithm for calculating distances using support programs, written in C, and using the getDistance function built into Yandex.Maps.

​

Development of an environmental monitoring system Eco-routs

The environmental monitoring system was developed by master's student D. Stepanov in collaboration with the UNESCO International Chair at NNGASU in 2016. The system is available at https://eco-routes.appspot.com.

With its help, you can determine the level of exceeding the maximum permissible concentration when driving in a traffic jam.

​

Development of a system for predicting the results of eSports tournaments based on Data Mining methods

In traditional sports, several data analysis methods are used to determine the chances of winning: those based on a predictive rating system, for example, the Elo rating. The same methods can be used in eSports disciplines. But this method is too inaccurate, and most serious forecasts are calculated using proprietary methods and systems that are not publicly available. Therefore, there is a problem in constructing a methodology for such forecasting.

The research was carried out by master's student M. Razuvaev in two stages.

Stage 1. Development of a process for collecting and processing data to predict the results of e-sports tournaments: developing a parser program, cleaning the data and converting it to a single convenient format for further loading into a data warehouse.

2. Stage. Creating a forecasting model based on one of the Data Mining algorithms: building several neural networks, testing the forecast quality.

The study's forecast for one of the largest tournaments turned out to be more accurate than the usual Elo rating.

In accordance with the economic profile of applied informatics, students receive specialization in the following areas:

​

Configuration and integration of systems on the 1C platform ();

Business analytics based on artificial intelligence systems ();

Development of distributed systems based on Web protocols ().

There is a constantly growing demand for specialists in these areas, which guarantees the employment of graduates.

1C programmer

Typical tasks that a 1C programmer solves:

​

Administration of 1C databases;

Automation of company activities;

Setting up and administering various configurations based on 1C;

Programming based on 1C.

​ ​

Russia is automated mainly on 1C

1C programmer is the most sought-after programmer in Russia.

​

Demand for programmers in November 2017 (according to superjob.ru and hh.ru)

In terms of the number of vacancies, 1C programmers have been leading for several years on a variety of job sites. At the same time, the average salary of 1C programmers is second only to the salary of C++ and DB programmers.

1C programmers have been the most sought-after IT specialists in Russia since 2009. This is not surprising, since the 1C system is used by 1.5 million Russian enterprises.
The largest increase in wages over the past ten years was also observed for 1C programmer vacancies. In terms of salary, 1C programmers are second only to C++ and C# programmers, but the demand for the latter is much less. There are vacancies for 1C programmers in any city in Russia.

It can be argued that in the future the need for 1C programmers will only grow. In the market of integrated systems in Russia, the 1C system has shown steady growth since 2004. Since 2013, the share of automated workplaces in Russia exceeds 83% by 1C. We can say that Russia is largely automated using 1C.

​

Level of mastery of the profession

The 1C company has adopted a sequential certification system. We prepare students at the level of knowledge of the 1C Professional certificate. In addition, our students have been winning prizes in various competitions held by 1C for many years.

Business analyst

​

What is business analytics?

The reality of modern business is working in a huge flow of data. This reality is even designated by the special term BigData. Turning this abundance of data into a resource that generates revenue or reduces costs requires data collection, processing, and analysis.

​

Business Intelligence (BI) is a business technology aimed at monetizing data.

​

Business analysts are top-class specialists who are on the list of the most “advanced” IT specialties.

Of the top six fastest-growing IT jobs in the United States, three are forecast to be in analytics.

In Russia, analysts are on the list of the most in-demand and highly paid IT specialties. Unlike 1C programmers, the need for which is widespread, business analysts are needed by “top” enterprises, which, in conditions of fierce competition, are forced to constantly improve their business.

To improve a business, you must first understand it, and this requires analyzing the data that the enterprise has: business data. These types of problems arise in the following areas.

​

Retail

shopping cart analysis

study of temporary sales patterns (temporal patterns)

demand forecasting

​

Banking

customer segmentation

forecasting clientele changes

loan fee calculation

​

Telecommunications

identifying customer loyalty (minimizing marketing costs)

Insurance

fraud detection (studies of stereotypes in applications for payments)

risk analysis (minimizing losses of insurance companies)

Typical tasks of a business analyst:

Collection and analysis of customer requirements;
- researching;
- business process modeling (BPMN, EPC, IDEF, UML languages);
- analysis of large volumes of data;
- development of databases for production management systems;
- setting technical specifications for software development or modification;
- building processes for collecting, storing and analyzing data;
- programming machine learning systems.

​

Typically, business data is not very organized, and there is usually a lot of this data. Used to analyze business data special methods and technologies called Data Mining(data mining). These methods are associated with the general theoretical disciplines of computer science and mathematics.

​

In addition to studying the general theory of Data Mining at the Department of Applied Informatics, students receive specific skills for working in the domestic analytical platform Deductor by Base Group Labs. As of 2016, this platform ranks second in Russia among analytical platforms in terms of the number of implementations.

​

Data Mining is not only a technology in demand, but also a field of extensive scientific research. For those graduates of NNGASU who want to continue their scientific career, the doors are open master's degree in applied computer science in analytical economics.

​

Level of mastery of the profession

​

Our students have repeatedly won all-Russian business analytics competitions organized by Base Group Labs. Students who complete courses in analytics can receive a certificate from BaseGroup Labs.

​

Web developerThis specialty requires mastering a number of disciplines that can be useful to computer scientists of any profile:

​

Server-side programming in Java and PHP;

client-side programming in JavaScript;

administration of database management systems MS SQL, MySQL;

interface design based on usability principles;

web page design using raster and vector graphics Gimp and Inkscape;

vulnerability analysis program code Web applications, as well as the reliability of the Web server configuration;

programming mobile applications for iOS/Android;

creating websites using CMS systems.

​

It can be noticed that PHP language still remains the leading Web development language, so special attention is paid to its study at the Department of Applied Informatics.

​

Development of an environmental monitoring system Eco-routs

​

An example of what our Web development students do is an environmental monitoring system. It was developed by 2016 graduate D. Stepanov in collaboration with the UNESCO International Chair at NNGASU in 2016. The system is available at https://eco-routs.appspot.com.
With its help, you can determine the level of exceeding the maximum permissible concentration when driving in a traffic jam.
