Guest lecture as part of the academic partnership
Last week, a guest lecture was held for students of the Faculty of Software Engineering as part of the academic partnership between Kyiv Aviation Institute and MODUS X. The event was part of the Talentverse X initiative, aimed at strengthening cooperation between the IT industry and higher education institutions.
The speaker was Denys Chuiev, Head of Business Analysis at MODUS X, who delivered a lecture on Requirements Modelling. During the session, students explored practical approaches to requirements management and discussed the role of business analysis in creating effective solutions.
The event took the form of an open dialogue: students actively participated in the discussion, shared their perspectives, and developed new ways of understanding the profession.
Key topics of the business analysis lecture
In particular, the lecture focused on the following topics:
- what business analysis really entails;
- how to distinguish formal requirements gathering from creating real business value;
- why the ability to ask the right questions is often more important than having quick answers.
“The right business analysis process begins with mindset — the ability to ask the right question, identify the real need behind a formal request, and propose a solution that works in a real business environment. This is a competency that should be developed already during university studies. That is why it is important for us to work with students and share practical experience,” said Denys Chuiev, Head of Business Analysis at MODUS X.
The role of Talentverse X in student development
At MODUS X, academic partnerships are seen as an important part of developing future professionals, as they make it possible to combine theoretical education with real business cases.
“Talentverse X is a systematic collaboration with universities that helps students better understand real market demands and integrate into a professional environment more quickly. We aim to create an environment where learning is strengthened by practical experience and direct interaction with experts,” said Mariia Shydlovska, Head of L&D at MODUS X.
MODUS X will continue to develop its academic partnership agenda by involving company experts in educational initiatives and creating opportunities for students to gain practical experience while still studying.
