Jinr University Centre

More than ten years ago, joint Order of the Ministries of Education and Atomic Energy No. 28/33 was signed on January 16, 1991. It was titled "On Providing Staff for Research and Applied Work in Nuclear Physics, Elementary Particle Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, and High-Temperature Superconductivity." This Order initiated the specialized education on the basis of JINR of graduate students from Moscow State University (MSU), Moscow Engineering Physics Institute (MEPI), and, a little later, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT). On the grounds of this Order, the University Centre (the UC) was established, whose 10th anniversary was celebrated on March 21, 2001.
