Apatity Branch

February 1995 MSTU and Kola Research Centre of Russian Academy of Sciences signed an agreement on creating MSTU Apatity Branch in order to train students in sciences and technical disciplines. After their graduation some students got the opportunity to continue the work in Kola Research Centre institutes. April 1996 Nikolai Kozlov, Doctor of Geology and Russian Academy of Natural Sciences corresponding member was appointed Director of the Apatity Branch, and he continues this work today.

MSTU Apatity Barnch (MSTU AB) is the integration of fundamental science with higher education.
