The Noosphere Engineering School (NES) of Max Polyakov (Maxym Polyakov) is a project that joins leading Ukrainian Universities and Noosphere. The organization combines efforts of academia and executive team of Noosphere to share practical and theoretical knowledge in the frame of developing projects based on science knowledge and business approach. NES and Max Polyakov build the bridge between experience and creativity, enthusiasm and practice background, innovations and set regulations. The Noosphere Engineering School declares synergy of students, experts, and engineering enthusiasts in order to do best to be at the forefront of engineering breakthroughs.
The Noosphere Space Engineering School was founded in 2017 as a cooperation between Oles Honchar Dnipro University, Space System Engineering School and the Noosphere Engineering School. The cooperation was made possible thanks to the great assistance from Association Noosphere and Max Polyakov. The Noosphere Space Engineering School works under the guidance of American Councils.
The mission of the Noosphere Space Engineering School of Max Polyakov is to help students make advancements in aerospace and other high-tech spheres through computer-assisted engineering and design.
The Noosphere Space Engineering School initiated by Max Polyakov bridges the gap between researchers and practitioners so they can work more closely with academia and students. The curriculum centers around laying out basic problem-solving approaches so that staff and students can generate their own opportunities for the inventors, entrepreneurs, and scientists of tomorrow.
Through combining theory with practice, Maxym Polyakov is building a stage on which the creative potential of students can flourish so that graduates of the school are able to carry their generation into the future.
Max Polyakov is going to implement technical solutions through hosting and organizing the competitions that involve young enthusiasts through the stages:
Idea – Hackathon – Layout – Design – Implementation
The students of the Space Engineering School design sub-orbital rockets. The satellites used by students are small “CanSat” standard satellites destined for sub-orbital rockets or “CubeSat” Satellites in 1U or 2U format.
The Noosphere Space Engineering School of Maxym Polyakov includes the Space Information Technology Department.
With the support of the Association Noosphere, the Space Information Technology Department was opened at the faculty of physics and technology of Oles Honchar Dnipro University.
The mission of the Space Information Technology Department supported by Max Polyakov is to provide world-class training standards that will be highly competitive in the world market of space services.
The goal of the department is to train specialists who navigate and understand the market ecosystem and ensure effective development and application of technical systems operating in near-Earth space.
The Noosphere Space Engineering School initiated by Max Polyakov consists of several labs.
Tasks:
Tasks:
There are also laboratories for testing missile containers.
By combining theory and practice, Space school and Max Polyakov strive to build a platform aimed to unleash the creative potential of students. Hopefully, in future, the graduates engage their generation by focusing inventors' talent and energy around making the world a better place to live in.
The Noosphere Space Engineering School students gain new knowledge, use new technologies and equipment in the educational process. Maxym Polyakov believes that successful training will leverage their skills up to leading specialists’ attains which give them an opportunity to collaborate with high-scaled companies all around the world: NASA, Firefly, EOS, Airbus etc.
On April 25, the European Career Day was held at the DNU Student's Palace. Max Polyakov’s Noosphere Engineering School participated in this event.
A few hours of individual mini-presentations and a dozen conversations helped identify potential Noosphere Engineering School students.
The NES teaches not only engineering but also a number of useful skills:
Students have real materials for writing course works and graduate projects.
Mentors of the Noosphere Engineering School shared the successes of the “Student Rocket” project team.

The Noosphere Space Engineering School, supported by Max Polyakov, is taking young engineers where they have never gone before with its Star Track tournament
On the 2nd of December, a remarkable event in the student space project development field took place. On this day, pitching sessions of Star Track tournament were held in Dnipro, Ukraine. The students presented prototypes of their inventions in the field of space research. 7 teams and 28 members were fighting for the opportunity to develop and test their projects at the Noosphere Space Engineering School, founded by Max Polyakov. Moreover, winning teams got cash prizes. As a result, 5 teams are working on their prototypes. They have until April 12, 2018, to submit their results.
The Noosphere Space Engineering School, which was founded by Max Polyakov, opens its doors to goal-oriented students who dream to launch their own rocket.
Young enthusiasts who dream to launch their own rocket will soon get the chance. The Noosphere Space Engineering School (NSES), founded by Maxym Polyakov, has opened its doors to hard-working, goal-oriented students. The school currently has three labs: an optimal design and construction lab, a technological production lab, and a non-destructive test lab. The initiative has been backed by two aerospace companies: SSE and EOS. Besides, NSES cooperated with the World Air sports federation, NASA, American Councils, and Ukrainian universities.
The Noosphere Space Engineering School team took part in an American amateur rocketry competition. The idea to participate was initiated by Max Polyakov.
May 2017 will be remembered by the Ukrainian team from the Noosphere Space Engineering School, founded by Maxym Polyakov, as they were able to take part in TARC 2017, Team America Rocketry Challenge 2017. TARC is a part of US defense and aerospace policy that draws attention to technology, science, mathematics, and engineering. The experience of the Ukrainian team will help spread the idea of amateur rocketry around the globe and arrange competitions in their home country.
On March 15-17, the International exhibition called “Modern Educational Establishments” took place for the ninth time in Kyiv Palace of Children and Youth. Representatives of Noosphere Space Engineering School by Maxym Polyakov took part in it.
The task of the innovation tournament was not simple. The students had to create a device that destined to be applied while the air balloon competitions took place. Most of the team's members represented leading universities of Ukraine. Team by Max Polyakov’s Noosphere Space Engineering School found the best way to automate the measurements of the markers that would provide the most exact result.
On May 2017 the students of Noosphere Space Engineering School powered by Maxym Polyakov became winners of the tournament by developing the best device for FAI measuring distance system.
Among the participants of the exhibition, there was arranged a kind of competition to award the most progressive educational establishments. Max Polyakov’s NES representatives competed with more than 650 works and got a gold medal in the category “Implementation of modern projects, teaching tools, technologies, and programs for the efficiency of the educational process improving”
The events like this one, drive those students’ attention who plan to launch their own space project. Max Polyakov gives an opportunity to those enthusiasts who not only dream but also ready to invest their time and efforts to fulfill their dream.
“Star Track” competition, initiated by Maxym Polyakov in the frame of Noosphere Space Engineering School, gives real chance to create a prototype of winning project for testing. Tournament topics include the research missile complex, CanSat, and Free Style.
