10 Basic Courses of Technical Module International and Legal Aspects of Nonproliferation Nuclear Knowledge Management International Nuclear Cooperation The purpose of the course is to study from the basics such as Non- Proliferation Treaty and the IAEA s role, the practices of national and international export control system, international political issues against NPT, to the international efforts toward non-proliferation. The purpose of the discipline is to understand the importance of knowledge management for the nuclear field, methods and practical tools to preserve knowledge, how knowledge management can/should be practiced and for what purposes, knowledge management and intellectual property. The course is conducted by IAEA experts, who cover such topics as INPRO project; status, prospects and issues for small modular reactors; economics of nuclear power; IAEA nuclear reactors programme; nuclear materials flows modeling in nuclear fuel cycles. Nuclear Technology The purpose of the discipline is to understand basic concepts of nuclear technology. Introduction to energy generation from nuclear reactions. Characteristics of nuclear energy. Fission cross-sections, criticality, and reaction control. Basic considerations of fission and fast reactor engineering, thermal hydraulics, and safety. Nuclear fuel and waste characteristics. Focus on western & Russian Light Water Reactors (LWR), Russian 10 fast reactor systems, and non-energy systems including accelerator based and medical systems.

11 Basic Courses of International Relations Module Technical and economical project analysis The purpose of discipline is to study the theoretical and practical issues related to the technical and economic analysis of international projects. The ultimate goal is to learn to conduct feasibility analysis and obtain profound knowledge of making management decisions aimed at improving the effectiveness of projects. Mathematical methods of project management Protecting the environment and environmentally friendly technologies Systemology and organization theory The purpose of the discipline is to develop an understanding of the optimization modeling techniques and fundamentals of the theory of probability and mathematical statistics, which are necessary for performing the basic tasks of project management (modeling flows of random events and calculating the numerical characteristics of random variables). The ultimate goal of the course is to develop the ability to systematically evaluate the environmental risks of modern development, as well as to analyze specific areas of international cooperation and security in this area. The purpose of discipline is to understand basic concepts of abstract systemology, receive training in basic structures and management tasks in organizations; obtain practical skills and learn about key methods and tools to perform analysis, evaluation and forecasting of time, resources, and other indicators of complex objects, processes and phenomena. 11

12 Basic Courses of Economical Module Investment and Innovation Projects Management (in Nuclear Industry) Corporate Finances Nuclear Industry Process Management Innovative Entrepreneurship and Legal Protection of Intellectual Property in Nuclear Industry Nuclear Industry Economics The discipline includes a number of general topics, complying with the recommendations of Project Management Institute. These general topics are: the project s definition and its objectives (SMART s requirements), the development and updating of the investment project s business plan, Project Scope Management et al The discipline consists of several general topics which include modern tools and techniques to improve the efficiency of financial - economic activities of the corporation in a market economy. Hereby are examined the general issues of effective conjunction between work processes and the material elements of production. This conjunction will make a profit producing of high-quality products. The discipline consists of several general topics which include basic concepts and methods of economic justification of innovations and management decisions; principles of project management company and the nature of innovation projects; Hereby is examined the social-economic role of nuclear power and its place in the energy sector. Risk Management and Insurance The discipline is focused on the development of corporate risk management system. Here is considered technical, technological, financial, investment, strategic and other risks. 12

13 Internship and Elective courses New possibilities due to cooperation: MEPhI & IAEA activities for Elective courses The Russian localization of the IAEA Cyber Learning Platform CLP4NET installed in the MEPhI to support national and international educational and training activities Vast base for Internship in a frame of Russian Nuclear Education Net and National Nuclear Innovation Consortium Leading managing companies such as: Rosenergoatom (10 NPP) TVEL (5 Plants) Science and Innovations centre (12 Research Institutes) Atomenergomash (5 Plants) Techsnabexport Most engaged scientific centres: Kurchatov Institute Russian Federal Nuclear Centre in Sarov Russian Federal Nuclear Centre in Snezhinsk The Association of Universities «Consortium of Rosatom Supporting Universities» 1.

14 MD Program Implementation Since 2013 MEPhI professors have taken active participation in INMA working processes. One of them is Fact finding visits to 5 universities (Japan, UK, USA, South Africa) Oct 2014 Fact finding visit INMA group to MEPhI Planned date of beginning INMA MD Program (fall 2015) has been shifted to next year by the reason of State Accreditation procedure at MEPhI Fall 2016 the is the new date for implementation of the Program for ROSATOM specialist 14

15 Summary MEPhI is a large university providing human resources and scientific innovation for the nuclear industry and other hightech branches of the national economy. MEPhI is the head higher education institution within the Russian Nuclear Innovation Consortium created in 2011 for conducting education of skilled personnel for nuclear industry of Russia MEPhI has institutes (Economic Analysis, International Relations) focusing on management education for nuclear industry and departments/institutes (Department of Theoretical and Experimental Physics of Nuclear Reactors) focusing on nuclear science and engineering which also have courses related to the management aspect. The INMA MD Program is ready to be implemented in educational process at MEPhI 15
