The Department of Non-Ferrous Metals and Gold of the College of Technologies at MISIS University occupies a leading position in training highly qualified personnel in “Materials Technologies” and “Metallurgy.”
The Department of Non-Ferrous Metals and Gold has enormous potential for testing and implementing numerous proposals for the development of domestic metallurgy toward comprehensive extraction of all valuable components from primary and secondary raw materials, creating truly environmentally friendly and waste-free production.
Department faculty includes recipients of the Russian Government Prize in Science and Technology and Honored Educators of the Russian Federation.
The Department offers training for Russia’s leading metallurgical and industrial holdings through modern engineering education programs.
The Department’s faculty has a significant impact on the improvement and development of various non-ferrous metallurgy processes in Russia, as well as in neighboring and distant countries — Kazakhstan, Australia, Uzbekistan, China, Ukraine, North Korea, and others.
The Department employs:
Total research funding amounts to 102.5 million rubles.
Core Research Directions:
Development of energy- and resource-saving technologies for processing polymetallic ores and concentrates of non-ferrous, rare, and precious metals.
Development of resource-saving and environmentally friendly technologies for producing strategically important non-ferrous metals.
Secondary metallurgy of non-ferrous, rare, and precious metals.
Remediation of technogenic formations and ash/slag dumps with recovery of valuable components.
Production of neodymium, rare-earth metals of the medium-heavy group, and magnetic materials based on them, etc.
