Interuniversity Scientific and Research Center of Materials Science, which was established at SSU within the frameworks of realization of the Russian Federation Government Megagrant, announces about the beginning of the educational programme “Theoretic Materials Science”. The lectures are held in Russian and English languages by Prof. Davide M. Proserpio (the University of Milan, Italy), Vladislav A. Blatov and Vladimir A. Saleev (SSU). The lectures are open to public, everyone interested is welcomed!
The lectures are going to be held from the 8th of July, 2013 on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 14:50 to 18:00 pm in room #L15.
