Future Digital Product managers receive VK scholarships to study at GSB

Two undergraduate students from the Digital Product Management programme at the HSE Graduate School of Business have been awarded scholarships from VK, covering the majority of their annual tuition fees.

Future Digital Product managers receive VK scholarships to study at GSB

Now in its second year, this initiative is made possible through the partnership between GSB and VK and is aimed at supporting young talents developing competencies in digital product management.

The VK scholarship is awarded on a competitive basis and is granted to two students — one first-year student and one senior-year student.

First-year students are selected based on the combined results of entrance exams and academic performance after their first semester. A ranking is formed based on these results, and the scholarship is awarded to the student with the highest score. Second- to fourth-year students go through a portfolio-based selection process. Their portfolios include academic achievements, extracurricular involvement, professional experience, and a video about their study experience in the programme or their interaction with VK.

In the 2024/25 academic year, the scholarships were awarded to Yaroslav Arefyev and Mikhail Chirva.

The partnership between GSB and VK is not limited to financial support. It also involves joint efforts to develop an educational environment that meets the challenges of the digital economy. VK regularly engages with the school by offering expert support, organizing practical events and projects, and helping shape an up-to-date agenda in the field of digital management.
