Logistics and Ecodesign of Industrial Technologies

The program in Deformation Processing of Metals and Alloys is aimed at training specialists in the fields of research, creation and development of technologies for deformation processing of metals and alloys. During full-time studies, students develop new technological processes of plastic deformation and reveal regularities of formation of structure and properties of metals. Among the innovative research that students are engaged in is the creation of industrially applicable methods of severe plastic deformation that allow to achieve unique combinations of properties of various metals and alloys, including titanium alloys for bone implants, new aluminum alloys.

As part of the Master’s program, students learn about the key stages of manufacturing castings, designing foundry tooling and modeling the processes of melt-filling of casting molds, and the features of the formation of the structure of castings and defects in castings. While working on their own research projects, students develop new materials and alloys using modern digital foundry technologies, make a forecast of future material properties, create prototypes of castings, and use additive manufacturing technologies. Students also investigate the properties of synthetic diamonds, jewelry and decorative minerals, establish regularities of mineral and alloy properties when creating artistic and technical products.

The program is focused on training specialists in research, development and improvement of technological processes for the production of non-ferrous, rare and noble metals and alloys, such as platinum, gold, copper, nickel, and titanium. These materials are actively used in the electrical, nuclear and aerospace industries. Students of the program also study additive manufacturing technologies, for example, the use of non-ferrous metal for the production of products using powder metallurgy and as an anti-corrosion coating. As part of research and development work, students develop new technological processes, identify physical and chemical regularities to improve production efficiency and competitive properties of the developed materials.

As part of the full-time program, students conduct research, model the processes of fracture of materials and products made of various alloys, and propose effective methods and means of material protection. Special attention is paid to the study of new technologies, including additive manufacturing methods of materials, causes of fracture of newly developed materials, development and creation of coatings, methods of their application, statistical methods of prediction and analysis of information. Throughout their studies, students are engaged in research activities in advanced laboratories and scientific centers of NUST MISIS, where they work either independently or as part of project teams under the guidance of leading scientists.

There is a demand in the country for revitalization of competencies related to tooling and launching of serial products. The Master’s program is designed to train design engineers with related competencies in materials science and robotics. Students learn about modern methods of device diagnostics for solving actual problems related to technological support of innovations. The partner of the Master’s program is the “Karfidov Lab” design bureau which offers students a technical base, production cooperation and its experience. The company’s employees are ready to share information, personal cases and examples so that the students get all the necessary knowledge and skills to launch products into mass production. Graduates of the program will have a holistic understanding of the manufacturing process of plastic, metal and other materials.

The Master’s program is focused on training specialists with a broad knowledge of technology and organization of production, economics and design of mining and metallurgical enterprises. Graduates will be able to solve complex engineering problems in the implementation of investment projects of leading companies in the mining and metallurgical industry. The core of the course is the disciplines of mineral processing technology and non-ferrous metals metallurgy. The unique advantage of the program is its practical orientation. In the course of training, students solve real production problems and get the opportunity to choose 40% of disciplines, independently determining areas of advanced specialization in metallurgy and beneficiation, economics and project management, modeling and optimization of technologies.

High-tech metals are rare-earth and rare metals that are used to impart unique properties to products and materials. Such metals are used in power engineering, mechanical engineering, aircraft construction, medicine and other industries. The goal of the Master’s program is to prepare in-demand specialists for innovative technological areas that ensure the implementation of the concept of sustainable development in key areas: green chemistry, energy, transport. The program subjects are taught by experienced industry practitioners and mentors from specialized partner companies. During their studies, master’s students undergo practical training at companies producing non-ferrous, rare and noble metal products, as well as receive grant and scholarship support. Graduates of the program build a career as engineers and project managers capable of creating modern processes, products and materials based on new physical principles.

The iPhD program in Physical Metallurgy is at the intersection of several branches of knowledge and is aimed at in-depth study of the structure and properties of metals and alloys for various purposes. Students during full-time studies take an active part in research and experiments aimed at improving metal technologies and creating new alloys.

As part of the program, students study existing solutions and develop the most effective technologies for the manufacturing industry taking into account the properties of materials, work on research projects for various industries: space industry, aviation, mechanical engineering, construction, instrumentation, railway transport, materials for electronics.

Upon completion of full-time studies in the program, students have the freedom to choose between completing the Master’s degree and further pursuing postgraduate studies. Graduates are in demand in academic organizations, R&D departments of large Russian and international companies, as well as in MegaScience projects.

The Master’s program is focused on training specialists in research and development of advanced metallic, ceramic and composite materials and coatings for aerospace, nuclear industry and medicine. Students get acquainted with the basics and problems of materials science, high-temperature synthesis of unique alloys, 3D modeling for selective laser fusion technologies and automated manufacturing processes. Graduates of the program are in demand in various industries in Russia and abroad, continue their scientific careers in the organizations of Rosatom State Corporation, Roscosmos State Corporation, institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and as postgraduates of NUST MISIS.
