Joint research with foreign partners

TUSUR cooperates with 20 universities and organizations from the USA, Great Britain, Germany, France, Taiwan and other countries. At present joint research with foreign partners is focused on eight priority research areas.

1. Nanosized and nanostructured materials and coatings, plasma technologies
2. Lines of research:
