11-02-2025
“On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, it is a great honor for me to meet with female scientists and young female researchers of the Georgian Technical University and discuss with you the new project presented by the Institute for Research on Public Governance Problems of the Faculty of Business Technologies, Scientific Sparring, which was also organized by female scientist Tamar Lominadze and developed by female scientist Mariam Tsatsanashvili. Our country and the Georgian Technical University have very valuable and rich scientific traditions, and I am glad that despite the challenges, science has preserved the spirit that has always accompanied each of us in Georgia,” said Academician David Gurgenidze, Rector of the Georgian Technical University, during a meeting with female scientists and researchers of the university, as part of the events dedicated to the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
The Rector of the Georgian Technical University thanked female scientists for their invaluable contribution to the development of science. As Academician David Gurgenidze noted, the Georgian Technical University has several outstanding female scientists and researchers who have repeatedly represented the country on the international stage.
“Georgia has outstanding female scientists and young researchers who have made our country famous worldwide. Each scientist of Georgian Technical University is a distinguished follower of these women. The 21st century is an era of rapid technological progress, and I am sure you will make a worthy contribution to this process in scientific and academic directions. Today, a new project, Scientific Sparring, has started, the main mission of which is for the university to be at the forefront of innovations that are taking place worldwide today. This is a kind of plan for how Georgian female scientists view the development of the university space, the rise of teaching and learning, science and research to a higher level, and progress in this space. Congratulations on the International Day of Women and Girls in Science and wish you success,” said David Gurgenidze.
The head of the Institute for Research on Public Governance Problems of the Faculty of Business Technologies introduced the audience to the stages of the implementation of the new project. As Professor Mariam Tsatsanashvili noted, the project is based on intergenerational relations.
“Today’s scientific sparring consists of 4 stages. We will explore how the concept of a smart university can address controversial hypotheses raised in the higher education system. In particular, we will pay attention to the issues of how to preserve traditional academic values in the context of artificial intelligence and strengthen students’ independent thinking and research skills without changing the human aspects of the learning process. We will also try to find out how artificial intelligence (AI) can adequately respond to controversial hypotheses raised in scientific research. We will focus on the issues of how the use of AI can strengthen, but not replace, traditional scientific methodology and how to ensure data reliability and ethical standards,” Mariam Tsatsanashvili noted in her speech.
For information, in 2015, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution declaring February 11th as the “International Day of Women and Girls in Science.” On this day, the UN calls on states, organizations, and individuals worldwide to promote the equal development of women in science and education.
The Georgian Technical University has been hosting a series of events dedicated to the International Day of Women and Girls in Science for the third year in a row.
