NUST MISIS has opened admissions for its basic and specialized higher education programs, master’s programs, and doctoral studies. Applicants can choose from modern educational tracks, employer-sponsored education opportunities with leading companies, a comprehensive scholarship support system, and well-developed campus infrastructure.
Rector Alevtina Chernikova commented: “NUST MISIS is Russia’s leading research and educational center in the development, implementation, and application of advanced technologies and materials. Its history encompasses key milestones of industrialization, the development of nuclear and space programs, and the establishment of world-class scientific schools. MISIS was among the first Russian universities selected, in accordance with a decree of the President of the Russian Federation, to participate in the pilot project aimed at improving the higher education system. We view participation in this pilot project as the next stage in the development of the university’s educational model, which is based on the integration of education and research, personalized learning, a practice-oriented approach, and the strengthening of employers’ role in education.”
Employer-sponsored education remains one of the most in-demand training formats. After enrollment, students may sign an agreement with a sponsoring company and receive guaranteed opportunities for internships and subsequent employment. The mandatory employment period under such agreements ranges from three to five years.
Applicants can also gain additional admission advantages through individual achievements. NUST MISIS regularly expands the list of achievements eligible for bonus points, such as winning or placing in academic competitions, contests, research and practical conferences, case championships, and other events.
Additional opportunities are provided through named scholarships and grant programs supported by the MISIS Endowment Fund. These programs are open to both state-funded and tuition-paying students. Each year, the university holds its “Student of the Year” competition, with winners receiving cash awards ranging from 50,000 to 150,000 rubles.
The university continues to develop its multi-track educational model, enabling students to build individualized learning pathways aligned with their professional interests and labor market demands. A comfortable learning environment remains one of the key advantages of NUST MISIS. Students have access to modern laboratories, multimedia classrooms, libraries, coworking spaces, and collaborative work areas.
All student residences are located close to the university’s main campus. The dormitories provide conditions conducive to both study and recreation, featuring computer labs, high-speed internet access, cafés, shops, and laundry facilities. The Metallurg residence hall also includes its own sports complex with a swimming pool.
Detailed information on admissions regulations, academic programs, and application deadlines is available on the university website.
