  • Chemistry: Bioorganic chemistry, crystallography, magnetic resonance, membranes, molecular dynamics, earth sciences, organic chemistry, polymers, chemical physics, laser chemistry, brain chemistry and behavior, surface chemistry, solid state chemistry, electrochemistry.
  • Physics: hydrodynamics, holography, gravitational field studies, relativistic electron beam physics and its application, theoretical astrophysics, theoretical high-energy physics, theoretical nuclear physics, phase transitions and critical phenomena, laser physics and its application, elementary particle physics, experimental high-energy physics, experimental nuclear physics.
  • Mathematics: geophysics, computer science and computer engineering, systems theory, theoretical and applied mathematics.
  • Teaching of scientific disciplines: research and development of methods of teaching scientific disciplines, curricula, literature and educational equipment for secondary schools.

The official language of instruction is English, which allows a large number of foreigners (approximately 25% of the total) to participate in all programs. Students from North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia study at the Graduate School. South and Central America.
