About the training program

The foundation of the specialty “Space Physics, Astronomy” is the theoretical and experimental study of processes and phenomena in outer space and on cosmic objects, with the aim of investigating the origin, motion, and evolution of celestial bodies on the basis of fundamental physical theories and astronomical observations. The essence of the program: in-depth theoretical and experimental training combined with independent research. The goal is to write and defend a PhD dissertation. The focus is on studying physical processes in space, the evolution of celestial bodies and media, solar–terrestrial interactions, space plasma, exoplanets, the large-scale structure of the Universe, and more.

What will they teach you?

  • Применять физические теории и математический аппарат к задачам астрофизики;
  • Работать с наблюдательными данными (в том числе из телескопов и космических миссий) и методами их обработки;
  • Использовать численное моделирование и вычислительные методы для решения астрофизических задач;
  • Ставить и проводить научные исследования, оформлять и публиковать результаты;
  • Сдавать кандидатские экзамены (история и философия науки, иностранный язык, дисциплина по специальности).

What do graduates do?

Graduates become research staff at institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences and university laboratories, university lecturers, specialists in space data analysis, research engineers in space-industry projects, and experts in science outreach and educational projects.
