School of Earth Sciences & Engineering

This unit is the oldest with about the 100-year experience in training of highly qualified engineers in the field of mineral and raw materials industry. Nowadays Tomsk Polytechnic University strives to develop an efficient research and education center, which will be able to conduct breakthrough research projects and provide gifted students and academic staff with all necessary conditions for creative work and study. Along with this activity, the School will train highly qualified academic staff, who can equally efficient work at both research and educational institutions and in petroleum and geology industries, and the ecological sphere. It collaborates with recognized national and international companies in petroleum and petroleum refining industries, like PJSC Gazprom, PJSC Rosneft, PJSC Transneft, PJSC Alrosa, PJSC SIBUR, Schlumberger, and others. In addition, within the framework of the state strategy in the development of the Arctic region, the School actively participates in the study of the underwater permafrost degradation, the emission of methane in the atmosphere in the areas of the Eastern Arctic.

School of Energy & Power Engineering

The School is one of the leading national and international centers in Energy and Power Engineering. Its engineering team develops solutions, ensuring efficient and reliable work of electrical power systems and grid, open and adaptable to new energy producers and consumers. The School actively collaborates with Russia and the CIS energy producers and research centers, like JSC System Operator of the United Power System, Federal Grid Company of Unified Energy System, RAO Energy Systems of the East, and others. In addition, the School is aimed to train highly qualified engineers and academic staff for different educational and research institutions. The students will be able to use modern technologies and will be equipped with advanced international experience in the field of power engineering. It pays close attention to the professional strength of its students since it understands that the modern world considerably depends on specialists in power engineering fields.

School of Nuclear Science & Engineering

The School of Nuclear Science & Engineering is one of the Russian centers of excellence in the areas of nuclear physics and hydrogen energy. The School goal is training competent engineers and academic staff in the areas of atomic and hydrogen power engineering, experimental and applied physics, new chemical, plasma, and beam technologies. The School has advanced research equipment and highly qualified academic staff. For instance, the School conducts large-scale experiments on the basis of the university nuclear research reactor (the one and only in Russia). In addition, it develops multidisciplinary technologies within the framework of the Peaceful Atom concept, including nuclear medicine, transmutational neutron alloying, isotope engineering, and thorium energy. This allows the School both to train qualified engineers and academic staff and to conduct fundamental and applied research in the areas of nuclear and radiation technology.

School of Non-Destructive Testing

School of Computer Science & Robotics

The School of Computer Science & Robotics is an intellectually-saturated educational environment, related to designing IT-tech, software, and hardware for development of the digital economy. The School pays close attention to international collaboration and nowadays it established innovation and educational centers jointly with Microsoft, Hughes, SoftLine Academy, and others. It trains highly qualified engineers using world-class Bachelor degree programs, engineering Master degree, PhD programs, and advanced training and short-term education programs. In addition, the School prepares scientific and academic staff, equipped with advanced knowledge and skills allowing them to work at both universities and research centers.

Along with educational activity, it conducts national and international research and R&D projects. It is specialized in methods and algorithms for processing big data, intelligent navigation, robotic complexes for studying the resources of the World Ocean, protecting the aquatic environment, and examining the state of underwater objects and engineering structures. As results of these projects, the School regularly presents innovative products, which can be used both for batch production and in individual solutions.

School of Advanced Manufacturing Technologies

School of Engineering Entrepreneurship

Research School of High-Energy Physics

Research School of Chemistry & Applied Biomedical Sciences

School of Core Engineering Education

The School main goal is to provide students with basic technical and social-humanitarian competencies. Advanced educational technologies, modern interactive resources, project-based training process, and highly qualified academic staff ensure developing a broad outlook, excellent theoretical basis in fundamental knowledge domains. On the other hand, the School pays close attention to applied skills: teamwork, critical thinking, leadership skills, and ability to solve complex professional problems.

The key feature of the School is a complex of basic academic courses for freshmen and sophomore undergraduate students focused on the development of general professional and cultural competencies for future engineers. After the second year, students will be able to make conscious and responsible choice of their further educational track. The School program is a core of successful education at TPU, regardless of academic program.
