Scientific research carried out in St. Petersburg State Polytechnical University make up a significant part of its activity. The structure of the University research activity is oriented at making the cycle “fundamental research – applied research – industrial manufacturing” shorter.
Research interests of the University cover spheres as diverse as:
Nuclear physics, condensed state physics, plasma physics and controlled nuclear fusion, high-temperature superconductivity, radio physics and electronics, physicochemical basics of life system organization, medical physics and engineering.
Power engineering, environment protection and support, balanced consuming of natural resources, municipal economy systems and life support.
Computing, control and cybernetics, robotics and flexible computer systems, telecommunication systems.
Mechanics, machine-building, design materials and new machinery and equipment materials, physicochemical basics of metallurgic processes.
Economics and Finances, management and marketing, human arts and engineering education liberation.
General management and coordinationof the university research activity is being done by Acting Vice-Rector for Perspective Projects Aleksey I. Borovkov.
The following research centers were founded within the structure of the University: Power Engineering Institute of the Academy of Science, The Central Boiler Turbine Institute, Hydroengineering Research Institute, "Impulse" Design Office, Central Research Institute of Robotics and Technical Cybernetics.
In 1992 a new self sufficient structural unit was introduced - a research-and-production group - aiming to coordinate research conducted by the University faculty and departments and to provide technical support.
