Education
Educational track «Hybrid Materials»
Master’s program «Современные квантовые и нанофотонные
системы / Advanced Quantum and Nanophotonic Systems».
The track focuses on interdisciplinary research, so we welcome
students with different backgrounds (physicists, chemists, materials
scientists, biologists) who want to work at the intersection of sciences.
On this track you will learn the basics of numerical modeling,
materials science, experimental nanophotonics, as well as special
topics in organic chemistry and cell biology.
