Doctoral Studies

The Department invites applications for the third (educational-scientific) level of higher education — Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). Our postgraduate program is conducted on a full-time basis and is designed to train specialists capable of solving complex scientific and technological challenges.

We provide high-level scientific supervision in two key areas:

  1. F1 Applied Mathematics (Educational-Scientific Program: “Applied Mathematics”)
  2. G8 Materials Science (Educational-Scientific Program: “Materials Science”)

Note: Detailed information regarding the content of each program, curricula, and course syllabi can be found on the [Postgraduate Department website].

Below is a list of the Department’s leading scientists who provide supervision for PhD students in these specialties:
