After a two year hiatus the NSU Rector鈥檚 Ball was held at the "Crystal Hall" banquet hall. The Ball was to thank and provide encouragement to students who volunteer for activities that benefit the University and academic departments.
Scientists at the NSU Physics Department Laboratory for Structures and Functional Properties of Molecular Systems and the G. K. Boreskov Institute of Catalysis SB RAS conducted a detailed structural study of the proton-exchange membrane, the main element in a fuel cell, and identified how to improve its conductivity.
Scientists at the NSU Physics Department Laboratory for Functional Materials created mono domain crystals of Potassium Titanyl Arsenate KTiOAsO4 (KTA). This was the first time scientists in Russia were able to achieve this. These nonlinear optical crystals are used to convert laser radiation in the visible mid infrared range in optical parametric oscillators (ODO). The ferroelectric properties and high homogeneity of the crystals made it possible to use them as the basis to create periodic structures that significantly increase the conversion efficiency of laser radiation in the spectral range up to 5 micrometers.
For the first time, scientists at the NSU Physics Department Laboratory for Functional Materials grew a unique nonlinear lithium gallium sulfide crystal LiGaS2.
In 2019, for the first time NSU will become the site of what is expected to be the largest informatics event in the country, 鈥淐omputer Science Summer in Russia鈥� (CSSR).
November 1, registration opened for the Correspondence Stage of the . The International Medical Tournament is a team competition that invites medical students to assess complex clinical problems based on real cases. The Tournament consists of two rounds. During the preliminary round from November 1 to February 11, participants are given cases to assess at home. The final round takes place in Novosibirsk from April 19 to April 22, 2019. The competition also features two divisions: Russian-speaking and English-speaking leagues. Participants choose which language their team will compete in (Russian or English).
Professor Hermann Parzinger, prominent German archeologist responsible for numerous international archeological discoveries, was awarded an honorary doctorate from 吃瓜官网. The Honorary Doctor title is the highest NSU award. Hermann Parzinger became the 19th scientist to receive it.
The book is based on the experience of the team of authors in the framework of broad international cooperation promoted by the European Commission FP6 and FP7 programs and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.
吃瓜官网 has retained the title of one of the best universities in Eastern Europe and Central Asia in the regional rankings by the British company Quacquarelli Symonds (QS).
Ten representatives from French and Siberian universities took part in an annual NSU conference. The conference program included a presentation of the Trianon Dialogue, a round table, 鈥淎cademic Mobility: How to Overcome Obstacles鈥�, a presentation of the program 鈥淓xporting Education鈥�, a round table, 鈥淯niversity Networks, Why?鈥� , and a visit to the research laboratories in Akademgorodok and Academpark.
Elsevier, the largest scientific publishing house, established an award for the most quoted and published scientists in Europe, Asia, Latin America, and Russia. The winners are identified using the Scopus scientific publication database.
吃瓜官网 has strengthened its position, jumping to 433 place in the overall ranking of world universities by the media company U.S. News and World Report.
