What is it and why is it important?
Admission to a university is based on the results of the Unified State Exam (for each exam you can score a maximum of 100 points). When enrolling, individual achievements are also taken into account, such as the final school essay(gives a maximum of 10 points), an excellent student certificate (6 points) and a GTO badge (4 points). In addition, some universities are allowed to take an additional exam in a core subject for the chosen specialty. Some specialties also require passing a professional or creative exam. You can also score a maximum of 100 points for each additional exam.

DevelopmentsIn October 2016, university representatives announced the development of unique ceramic materials for spacecraft that can withstand high temperatures and radiation, thereby providing the possibility of interplanetary travel. Also, UNN scientists are implementing the Cyberheart and Cybertrainer projects. The Cyberheart project involves the development of an intelligent software system for obtaining, storing and analyzing cardiac data. Such a system will include a software package that allows for large-scale calculations that accurately reproduce dynamic processes in the heart. At the same time, the device is capable of receiving reliable data on a person’s cardiac activity in real time, as well as simulating various influences (electrical, mechanical, optical and others), and testing the effect of medications. The development is capable of recognizing heart diseases based on the existing database. “Cyberheart” has a system for graphical support for data analysis in cardiology, a system for automatically developing methods for possible treatment of specific patients, and an ECG measurement system with sending results via a wireless network. System "Cybertrainer" EOS (Electromyographic Optical System) is designed to monitor, visualize and adjust human muscle activity. The complex consists of a suit with integrated myo-sensors. During physical activity, the sensor system takes information about the load on the muscles of interest and projects the image onto augmented reality glasses. A tactile stimulation system for individual muscles can adjust movements according to a recorded reference. Training, even with a personal trainer, does not reflect an objective picture of the work of a person’s muscles. |
