About organization
MIPT was founded in 1946 by Nobel laureates Pyotr Kapitsa, Lev Landau, and Nikolay Semenov to train the country’s research and engineering elite; and from its first years, the Institute was involved in the top priority state initiatives: the space and nuclear programs.
Over more than 75 years of history, the MIPT alumni included dozens of academicians, outstanding scientists, and inventors.
One of the key factors determining the level of training of graduates is the Phystech System proposed by Petr Kapitsa, which is comprised of the following principles:
1. Careful selection of the most gifted and creatively inclined young people;
2. Involvement of leading researchers in training;
3. Individual work with each student as part of their training at specialized institutes, with each student required to participate in research work starting from their second or third year;
4. Each student should be proficient in modern techniques of theoretical and experimental research upon graduation.
