The paper introduces a methodology for determining and classifying scientific and technological frontiers related to the activities of students of technical universities in Russia, expressed in scientific publications. The study is based on software, statistical, expert and AI methods of collecting and analyzing information. This made it possible to form a list of areas that most likely can be considered scientific and technological frontiers in the activities of students of technical universities in Russia.
