The State Research Institution «Kyiv Academic University» (KAU) is a research university of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU) and the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. The main structural units of KAU are the departments of basic Institutes of NASU and research centres. Students have direct access to Ukrainian scientific programs, collaborate with Ukrainian scientists and create deep tech projects based on results of their R&D activities. KAU also develops international scientific collaboration actively. Academic staff currently takes part in joint projects with universities of Dresden, Lille, Iowa as well as in HORIZON projects. The strength of KAU lies in close conjunction of the educational process at the departments and research centres of KAU at the basic academic institutions, where interdisciplinary studies of the most relevant areas of modern science take place. KAU has multiple departments at the research institutions of NAS of Ukraine. Department of Applied Physics and Material Science (based at the Paton Institute of Electric Welding) Department of Applied Physics and Nanoscale Systems (based at the Kurdyumov Institute of Metal Physics) Department of Fundamental Problems of General and Applied Physics (based at the Institute of Physics) Department of Biomedicine and Neuroscience (based at the Kyiv Academic University); Department of Theoretical and Mathematical Physics (based at the Bogolyubov Institute for Theoretical Physics) Department of Mathematics (based at the Institute of Mathematics) Department of Theoretical Cybernetics and Optimal Control Methods (based at the Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics) Department Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (based at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Genetics) One of the KAU’s core units is an Innovation Center. Here undergraduate and graduate students gain experience in bringing their research to an innovative level. In 2021 KAU Innovation Center launched a complex program of academic innovations support.
