Sources
- Official institutional information https://mipt.ru/sveden/common/
Official institution page with general information about the object.
Used as the primary public source for the object card.
- Education https://old.mipt.ru/education/
The official page describes the Phystech education system: fundamental training, exposure to a chosen specialization, and independent senior-year work.
Used as a general source for MIPT's specialized undergraduate education architecture.
- DIHT Base Departments https://old.mipt.ru/diht/bases/
The faculty page shows that after the second year students choose a base department that determines their further specialization.
Used as an example of formal main-specialization choice after enrollment; the source is limited to DIHT.
- Student Internal Regulations https://mipt.ru/vikon/sveden/files/Pravila_vnutrennego_rasporyadka_obuchayuschixsya_ot_23.09.2021.pdf
The internal regulation establishes students' right to choose optional and mandatory elective courses from the list offered by MIPT.
The document also allows students to take other courses and transfer learning outcomes, but it does not describe a regular external cross-registration model.
- Components of Educational Programs https://mipt.ru/sveden/education/eduop/
The official section provides current program descriptions, course syllabi, and MIPT curricula.
Used as the registry for checking bachelor's curricula across different Phystech schools.
- AI360: Advanced Artificial Intelligence Methods Curriculum https://mipt.ru/vikon/sveden/files/eio/Ucheb_plan_2025(33).pdf
The 2025 curriculum shows the AI360 profile, faculty courses, and several mandatory elective blocks within the 240-credit bachelor's program.
Used as an example of limited elective choice and profile specialization in an IT-oriented program.
- General and Applied Physics Curriculum https://mipt.ru/vikon/sveden/files/ait/Ucheb_plan_2025(95).pdf
The 2025 Landau Phystech School curriculum shows elective elements in mathematics, physics, faculty courses, and elective-course blocks.
The source confirms that mandatory elective blocks are not limited to computer-science programs, while remaining embedded in a specific curriculum.
- Biotechnology Curriculum https://mipt.ru/vikon/sveden/files/ain/Ucheb_plan_2025(84).pdf
The 2025 Biological and Medical Physics curriculum shows profile modules by choice and an elective-course block in the biotechnology program.
Used as an additional check that elective elements recur across different MIPT subject areas.
