Faculty
- School of Economics and Management is the engine for breakthrough changes happening at SUSU.
The best scientific, academic and student traditions of the SUSU economic faculties are concentrated in this subdivision. The School of Economics and Management combines the professor and teaching body of the faculties of Economics and Management, Economics and Business, the Institute of Economics, Trade, and Technologies, and the International Faculty.
Within the School of Economics and Management, ambitious projects are being released for the first time in the Ural region, such as the zone of elite training for applicants with high marks on the EGE, and the zone for elite business education in MBA programs. Students of the SEM will be actively involved in the innovative business sphere of the university (youth business incubator, innovation center, virtual bank and stock market, and so on).
Among the most important advantages of the School of Economics and Management are – inclusion in the academic process such models and techniques of education as MOOC, LMS, E-learning, and the use of professional cases (Laboratory of Cases) within the academic process.
Students of the SEM will go through their education in an English-speaking atmosphere. At their disposal: English-speaking education programs and international, world-class economists. The School of Economics will realize dual degree programs with leading universities of the USA, China, Europe, and countries of the SCO. The SEM structure offers strengthened mathematic training of economists.
Thanks to tiered financial and grant support, students can fully dedicate themselves to their education.
SUSU actively cooperates with international corporations (Emerson, Endress+Hauser), and the most dedicated and active students in the SEM will be able to begin their career during their education by completing internship in leading transnational companies.
The strategic goal of the School of Economics is not just to train economists and managers; it’s also to pass on the business spirit to students and educate a new breed of businessmen. This is possible only with the parallel, mutually beneficial development of science, educational techniques, and business.
The School of Economics and Management is:
- A zone of elite training for talented applicants with high marks on the EGE;
- Education by individual academic trajectories;
- Lectures by leading international professors and researchers;
- The formation of an English-speaking environment and implementation of English-language education programs;
- Dual Degree programs alongside other leading universities;
- The chance to receive elite business education as part of the bachelor’s and master’s program in business administration;
- The developed system of financial and grant support;
- The organization of internships and employment of students in the world’s leading high-tech international and Russian companies;
- Involvement of freshman students in the formation of the university’s innovative business environment (youth business incubator, innovative center, virtual bank and stock market);
- The use of innovative education models and techniques (MOOC, LMS, E-learning);
- The wide use of professional cases, business and organizational activity games for a new, innovative type of managers.
- School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science unites the Faculty of Computer Technologies, Control and Radio Engineering (the Instrument Engineering) and the Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Computer Science, and continues the 60-year-old tradition of technical and engineering education at the South Ural. The goal of the School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science is to create a scientific and educational environment targeted at training specialists in the field of instrument engineering, radio electronics, automated control, information security, computer science and sowtware engineering. The School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science performs training of bachelors, specialists, masters, candidates and doctors of sciences in such areas as instrument engineering, motion control systems and navigation, aircraft control systems, control in engineering systems, information communication technologies and communication systems, design and technology of electronic devices, radio electronic systems and complexes, computer science and computer engineering, information security, program engineering, fundamental informatics and information technology. Infrastructure of the School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science includes more than 30 laboratories and research and education centers which have unique equipment in the field of radio electronics, control systems, automation tools and electronic computation systems. Supercomputer systems, laboratories for industrial control systems and for measuring systems, automation platforms, network and telecommunication equipment are all available for our students, postgraduates, and lecturers for successful studying and research activity. The School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science includes 10 departments which perform training of bachelors, specialists, masters and candidates of sciences in the fields of instrument engineering and automated control, radio electronics and computer science.
- Originally, South Ural State University was established as a polytechnic higher education institution. Its scientific and educational process had been technically oriented for many years. The unification of all engineering faculties of the base industrial sectors has propelled the University to a fundamentally new level. It allows us to integrate all educational and scientific resources and, thus, to maximize the University’s competitiveness and strengthen its leading position in the field of engineering knowledge both in the South Ural capital, and beyond. The Faculties of Automobile and Tractor Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Power Engineering, the Faculty of Mechanics and Technology, and the Faculty of Materials and Metallurgical Technologies are organized into the new University structure. The Institute of Engineering and Technology has its own Extramural Faculty. The Polytechnic Institute of SUSU in Chelyabinsk combines 19 technically oriented departments; and each of them has its own unique field of development. Five more base departments of the Institute are located in various cities of the Chelyabinsk Region. The structure of Institute of Engineering and Technology includes 5 scientific departments, 6 university-wide research and education centers (REC), and scientific research laboratories: REC “Aerospace Technology”; Center for Collective Use “Power Engineering and Supply”; Secondary Vocational Education Department “Summer Operation of Aircrafts”; “Aviation Training Center”; “Rocket and Space Technology Education Center named after V.P. Makeyev”; REC “Experimental Mechanics”; REC “Composite Materials and Constructions”, etc. One of the Institute’s core advantages is an exclusive engineering training center. It is a so-called “school for high achieving students” which offers enhanced training for all engineering specializations and pays special attention to mathematical disciplines. The students of our elite training center interact with leading professors of the Institute of Engineering and Technology and have an advantage when realizing their ideas in the framework of small innovative enterprises of the University.
- Due to the global changes at the university and Project 5-100 implementation, the SUSU Faculty of Architecture and the Faculty of Architecture and Construction have been united to become the Institute of Architecture and Construction.
- In 2016, the University established a unique and innovative department which combined the most outstanding achievements in the fields of Fundamental and Biomedicine, Food and Biotechnologies, and Clinical Psychology
The study of molecular mechanisms of stress, and development of technologies for production of functional purpose products for adaptive nutrition have become a newly created exclusive growing point for the breakthrough areas of global scientific development.
