On January 20, 2025, as part of the participation in the extended meeting of the final board of the Ministry of Construction, Architecture and Housing and Communal Services of the Republic of Tatarstan, KSUAE was visited by the Minister of Construction and Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation I.E. Faizullin and the Head of the Republic of Tatarstan R.N. Minnikhanov. The distinguished guests were shown the new scientific and educational centers of the university "Geodesy" and "Digital Roads".
The guests were met and introduced to the new sites of KSUAC by the Rector R.K. Nizamov, vice-rectors and directors of institutes, heads of centers.
The Research and Academic Center "Geodesy" was created within the framework of the university development concept.

The center is located in the building of the Institute of Transport Structures and consists of three laboratories: Life Cycle, Digital Engineering, and Intelligent Systems. The Life Cycle Laboratory is built by analogy with the technology of information modeling of road construction - from solution to execution and operation. It consists of 7 sites: Digital Relief, Information Modeling, Modern Road Construction Using Satellite Navigation, Intelligent Transport Systems, Modeling of Traffic Flows, Internet of Things in Transport and Logistics, Digital Twins. The Digital Engineering Laboratory is a multimedia platform related to the use of artificial intelligence in road construction. Consists of 6 platforms: unmanned transport, VR technologies, information and cyber security, neural networks and machine learning, virtual assistant, generative design. The Intelligent Systems Laboratory is a platform for training and R&D in the field of traffic safety and transport modeling, telematics and telemetry, development of bicycle and SIM infrastructure, design and modeling of intelligent systems. The guests also visited the Roads and Strength centers. The area of each center is about 400 sq. m.
The Head of the Republic of Tatarstan R.N. Minnikhanov, Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities of the Russian Federation I.E.
