MISIS University expands partnership with Namibia

As part of the 11th meeting of the Intergovernmental Russian-Namibian Commission on Trade and Economic Cooperation, held in Windhoek, NUST MISIS presented its experience in implementing joint educational programs with the participation of African industry partner

A new quantum machine learning algorithm developed at NUST MISIS

Researchers at NUST MISIS have developed a machine learning algorithm that improves data classification accuracy in quantum computers. Instead of qubits, which are standard for quantum computing, the new method uses qudits, quantum elements with multiple levels of states. They enable complex quantum operations to be performed in fewer steps, significantly simplifying computations and giving specialists greater flexibility in representing and encoding information.

How textile waste becomes the basis for supercapacitors in just five minutes

Researchers from MISIS University and Research Institute of Advanced Materials and Technologies (RIAMT) have developed a new method for producing carbon materials from cotton waste, reducing the processing time to just a few minutes instead of the usual one and a half hours. The materials obtained using this approach can be used in supercapacitors — devices designed for rapid energy storage and release that are widely used in electronics, transport, and energy storage systems.

MISIS University Opens a Full-Cycle IT Lab in Partnership with RED SOFT

A specialized laboratory established by RED SOFT, one of Russia’s leading software developers, has opened at the College of Computer Science at NUST MISIS. The new training space provides all the necessary infrastructure to prepare system administrators, engineers, database administrators, and IT infrastructure architects who will go on to work with domestic infrastructure software in the industrial sector, including metallurgy and related industries.

NUST MISIS student becomes European ice swimming champion

Matvey Ovseychuk, a fourth-year student at the College of Technologies of NUST MISIS, became the European champion in ice swimming as a member of the national team and won medals in individual events. More than 500 athletes from 32 countries competed for the title. The Russian team emerged as the overall leader, winning 54 medals and setting four world records.

NUST MISIS students excel at the international programming olympiad

Students of MISIS delivered an outstanding performance at the Northern Eurasia Championship of the International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC), one of the most prestigious competitions in competitive programming worldwide. The teams demonstrated strong results, reaffirming the university’s solid reputation in training specialists in algorithmic programming.

NUST MISIS participates in an International Education Fair in Hong Kong

NUST MISIS took part in the international Education and Careers Expo 2026, held in Hong Kong with the support of the Consulate General of the Russian Federation. The exhibition was organized by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council under the auspices of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and is the largest education forum in the Greater Bay Area. This year, around 800 educational institutions from 20 countries participated in the event.

Reaching a New Level: MISIS and Russian Quantum Center Scientists Explain How to Simplify Quantum Computing

Physicists from the National University of Science and Technology MISIS and the Russian Quantum Center (RQC) have systematized modern approaches to implementing quantum algorithms using multidimensional quantum systems—qudits—and demonstrated how engaging additional energy levels of quantum carriers can simplify the execution of complex quantum operations and reduce their number compared to standard qubit-based schemes. Such approaches can improve the efficiency of quantum computing and bring the practical application of quantum algorithms closer in areas such as optimization, data processing, and the modeling of complex systems.

NUST MISIS Students Win 600,000 Rubles at a Hackathon

NUST MISIS students became prize winners at an IT hackathon held as part of the Impulse T1 conference. Team MISIS MOJARUNG took first place and won 300,000 rubles, YSL MISIS finished second with a 200,000-ruble prize, and larek.tech placed third, earning 100,000 rubles.

When code powers art: MISIS students win awards at film and theatre hackathons

Students of the College of Computer Sciences at NUST MISIS, together with peers from other universities, became prize winners in two IT competitions. They took second place at the Wink AI Challenge hackathon, winning 120,000 rubles, as well as second and third places at the interdisciplinary hackathon Theatre. AI. Human. The teams presented applied artificial intelligence solutions for the film industry and theatre arts.

NUST MISIS opens a preparatory center for future engineers from China

NUST MISIS Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs Andrey Voronin and Gao Xiukun, Director of Secondary School No. 1 of the Ordos Urban District (PRC), have signed an agreement to establish a preparatory center in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The event marks a new chapter in training highly qualified professionals for one of China’s key industrial regions and strengthens academic cooperation between the two countries.

An Innovative Anti-Caries Gel Developed at NUST MISIS

Researchers at NUST MISIS have introduced a gel based on the enzyme dextranase that can effectively combat dental plaque and help prevent tooth decay. In the future, the development could improve the formulation of toothpastes and serve as a foundation for new preventive dental care products.
