JINR postgraduate JINR postgraduate programmesprogrammes

Each year about 70 people are educated at the JINR postgraduate courses starting from 1995. Among 198 postgraduate students, who finished the postgraduate studies from 1998, 53 people defended the PhD theses.

Important task for the UC is to support participation of the PhD students in the scientific seminars organized by the laboratories of the Institute and other scientific centers.

International education International education activitiesactivities

UC is planning to organize 6th International Summer School “Nuclear Physics Methods and Accelerators in Biology and Medicine”

in Dubna on 2011

Practice included about 20 research projects

Practice in 2010 will be organized in May for students from ARE, in July for European students and in September for SA students

In cooperation with the Faculty of the Natural and Engineering Sciences of Dubna International University, the UC will create the students laboratories for learning the nanotechnology fundamentals

Secondary school activitiesSecondary school activities

The UC will continue to organize acquaintance visits by school delegations from JINR member states.

Jointly with CERN, the University Centre will be annually holding professional advancement courses for teachers of physics from JINR member-states. First event of this program took place at CERN on November 1-7 and was supported by the grant of the Federal Agency in Science and Innovations.

The University Centre will concentrate their efforts to advertise among school pupils the possibilities to get good education at JINR-based departments and to start scientific carrier at JINR.

Further plans Further plans

In cooperation with CERN the UC is planning to organize the second school for teachers from JINR member-states on July 4-11, 2010 in Dubna

Program of the school will include besides the lectures and excursions to JINR laboratories the video-conferences with CERN

One of result of this activity is the organization of series of video-conferences between Russian schools and CERN

Support of JINR's engineering Support of JINR's engineering and technical staffand technical staff

One of the UC's functions is offering programmes of training specialists in the maintenance of the facilities that are supervised by the Russian Federation's Technical Inspection. This activity includes training and retraining JINR's engineering and technical staff.

Conclusion Conclusion

The Education Programme of the JINR University Centre should be organized in such a way to resolve the issue of providing the Institute with research, engineering, and technical staff coming from its member-states

One of the main aims of the University Center is to provide conditions for involvement of the students and postgraduates from JINR member- states to the JINR scientific programmes
