At BMSTU, research is carried out in all fields of fundamental sciences. Hundreds of research projects conducted by the Faculty of Fundamental Sciences are supported by various organizations.

  A large portion of this support comes from government grants (from all branches of the Ministry of Defense, the Department of Energy, and the Russian Academy of Sciences). These grants are provided not only to purchase some laboratory equipment, but also to award students’ scholarship and to support graduates’ research.
