Why study at MIPT? MIPT offers the best in technical education, refined by decades of experience and open to the future. The Phys. Tech system: In-depth teaching of fundamentals and extensive practical work at affiliated research institutions (‘bases’). The strong link between study and practice means students learn to apply their knowledge of theory in the real world. MIPT graduates are in high demand with employers and are well equipped for success in academia and industry alike Our focus • • • Theoretical & applied physics and mathematics Aerospace engineering Information and Communication Technologies Energy efficiency Advanced materials Biomedical technology 3

Typical curriculum Fundamental courses Year 1 Affiliated organisations Specialised courses Year 2 Year 3 Bachelor’s Degree The Phys. Tech system allows each student to have the same strong theoretical foundation, but choose their own particular path in further education. Year 4 Year 1 Year 2 Master’s Degree Intensive, in-depth courses in mathematics, physics, English, and computer science in Year 1. Increasingly specialised courses in the chosen area of concentration from Year 2. Taught courses and research projects at affiliated organisations from Year 3. Master’s course mostly at affiliated organisations. 4

Phystech. International Olympiads are aimed at identification and development of talented young people. Participation in the Olympiads gives them a chance to prove themselves in the field of mathematics and physics. Olympiad consists of two rounds. First round is a qualifying round and will be conducted online. The second round is final and will be held in person, in the cities of the participating countries, separately for mathematics and physics in two different days. Participation in the competition is free and equal for all contestants. 13
