A brief history
of JINR’s education program

1956 – JINR is established

1961 – Moscow State University branch
is organized in Dubna (D.I.Blokhintsev, V.I.
Veksler and S.N.Vernov)

1991 – JINR University Centre is established

1994 – Dubna International University (DIU) is
founded

1995 – JINR’s PhD program is opened

2003 – education program
in physics is started at DIU

International education actions
Secondary-school oriented activity
Goals of the JINR educational program are developing and
proper functioning of the system of training of young
scientists for the member-states and the Institute itself.
“The whole Institute
should become a big
physical practicum for
the Universities of the
member-states.”

International Chair
“Nuclear physics, new materials and technologies” was opened on July 9,
2008 at the Gumilev Eurasian University on the basis of the DC-60 heavy ion
cyclotron of Interdisciplinary Scientific Research Center.
During CP held in Astana on November 19, 2009 a four-side agreement
between GEU, DIU, NNC and JINR regarding the training of bachelors and
masters in nuclear physics was signed.
During 2010-2011 academic year first 7 students from Kazakhstan got two
Bachelor diplomas: one from the Dubna University and another from their
native University in Kazakhstan

During the Practice students work on
small research-educational projects
List of Research-Educational Projects
Goals
of the Practice

to give an idea about JINR
fields of research

to get to be acquainted with
JINR research teams

to work on student-research
projects at JINR facilities

to learn new facts in different
sciences

to attract students from
different countries to start a
scientific career at JINR
Practice for students from Egypt in 2011
His Excellency, Ambassador
Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the
Arab Republic of Egypt in the Russian
Federation appeals to students from
Egypt with a welcoming speech and
award certificates of completion
the Practice at JINR
Visit of Polish school pupils
and teachers to JINR
Opinion of the pupils
Indeed excursion to the mind and soul. I do not regret the trip to
Dubna. ... impression was mass, and as many unanswered
questions. Masha Popova, Grade 8
... I would like to add that I really liked it, and I would like to
return there, to work at JINR. Masha Buchnev, Grade 11
In collaboration with CERN the UC is
organizing the scientific schools for the
teachers from the JINR Member States. First
and third schools held at CERN on November
2009 and 2010.
Second and fourth scientific school for
the teachers held at JINR on July 2010
and June 2011.
