Educational Programme
Development of JINR as a "super-university," where scientific research will be closely connected with the education process. The Educational Programme will attach special importance to the training of specialists from JINR Member States for work both at JINR and laboratories of the Member States. The Programme is mostly realized on the basis of the JINR University Centre. The UC is going to be the main unit around which various educational activities will concentrate.
 4th, 5th and 6th-year students of MEPI, MIPT,
MSU, and other higher education institutions
 Specialized training programmes for the
Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, and other countries

Extension of the list of specialties and departments (MIREA, Dubna University)
 New engineering specialties (MEPI)
Optional lectures, conferences, and schools for students and postgraduates from the JINR Member States
(Advanced School of Theoretical Physics)
Postgraduate studies

Some further steps related to the 7-year Programme
 Preparation of an addendum to the Programme:
Booklet of abstracts/summaries on expected physics results in HEP and on accelerator activities at JINR.
 Active work with the Plenipotentiaries and Governments of the JINR Member States on the long-term planning of the scientific and financial participation in the activity of JINR.
 Prioritization of research activities.
In the course of its implementation, the Programme will be updated. The priorities of the research activities will be established and indicated in the annual Topical Plan for JINR Research and International Cooperation and in the 3-year “rolling’’ Scientific Programme.
