Postgraduate. Benefits and opportunities.
Postgraduate studies - third stage higher education. The purpose of postgraduate studies is to educate qualified scientific and pedagogical personnel capable of conducting research, pedagogical work, independently setting and solving urgent scientific problems, adequately perceiving scientific achievements specialists in the same field of knowledge, transfer their knowledge to the scientific community. Persons with an education not lower than higher education (specialist or master's degree) are allowed to master postgraduate programs.

Why go to graduate school? If, as a student, you are seriously interested in a certain area of ​​​​knowledge, or you are attracted to the work of a teacher, then graduate school is the right way to deepen this knowledge. There is no age limit for admission to graduate school.

An important step in the choice of postgraduate study is the choice of a scientific specialty. Scientific specialties are classified by the fields of knowledge by the Higher Attestation Commission. They have ciphers and are presented on the VAK website. Each specialty has its own passport, which describes the object of study of this specialty, as well as the range of issues considered in this area. It is necessary to decide on the specialty immediately, since dissertation councils accept dissertations clearly defined for this council for defense.

The next step in the choice of postgraduate study is the choice of the form of study. Currently, there are two forms of education: full-time and part-time.

Full-time postgraduate studies include visiting training sessions, participation in the work of the department and the institute, conducting classes with students, etc. Education in full-time postgraduate studies is carried out both on the budget and on paid basis. A full-time budgetary graduate student receives a monthly stipend.

Correspondence postgraduate study provides that the postgraduate student will take curriculum mostly on their own. Education in correspondence postgraduate studies is carried out on a paid basis.

Full-time graduate students are granted the right to defer from military service for the entire period of study.
The basis for the emergence of the right to deferment from the army during postgraduate studies are the provisions of paragraph 2 "b" of Article 24 of the Federal Law of March 28, 1998 No. 53-FZ "On military duty and military service":
"Article 24. Postponement of conscription of citizens for military service
2. Citizens have the right to deferment from conscription for military service:
b) receiving postgraduate professional education in full-time training in those having state accreditation in the relevant areas of training (specialties) educational institutions higher vocational education or scientific institutions licensed to conduct educational activities for educational programs of postgraduate professional education, - for the period of study, but not more than the standard terms for mastering the main educational programs and for the period of defense of the qualification work, but not more than one year after the completion of training in the educational program of postgraduate professional education"

PROCEDURE FOR DEVELOPMENT AND APPROVAL

INDIVIDUAL WORK PLAN OF A POSTGRADUATE STUDENT

The total volume of the main educational program is 7560 hours (210 credit units (CU)). One credit unit is equal to 36 academic hours lasting 45 minutes of classroom and/or independent work of a postgraduate student. The maximum volume of the teaching load of a postgraduate student, providing for all types of academic work, is 54 academic hours per week (1.5 ZET). In terms of content, the main educational program includes two components: educational and research.

The educational component is 1080 hours (30 ZET), designed for the mastering of the PhD program by the postgraduate student and theoretical training in special and general professional disciplines. Structurally, the educational component is represented by blocks of general scientific and optional disciplines and practice.

The scope of the research component is 6480 hours (180 ZET). In terms of content, this component includes the following types of work: research work on a selected topic, presentation of results at scientific events, in scientific publications and titles of protection for intellectual property, preparation of a dissertation manuscript and an abstract.

Individual plan work (tables 1, 2) is developed by each graduate student together with the supervisor on the basis of the curriculum and schedule of the educational process in the specialty, taking into account the labor intensity of individual elements of the educational (table 1) and research (table 2) components and reflects the individual educational trajectory of the graduate student for the entire period postgraduate education. Curricula can be found in the department of postgraduate and doctoral studies, at the department and in the corporate network of SSAU. The supervisor and postgraduate student, if necessary, can partially or completely use the time allotted for the development of optional disciplines in other sections of the educational component. As an exception, it is possible to change the curriculum, for which it is necessary to develop additional work programs and approve them from the vice-rector for science and innovation.

Within two months from the date of enrollment in graduate school, the individual plan and topic of the dissertation work of the graduate student is considered at a meeting of the department and at the faculty council. After that, the individual plan is approved by the rector of the university.

Every year, a graduate student, on an individual basis, draws up a report on the results of the past year of study (tables 1.1-1.4 and 2.1-2.4) for certification at the department and the academic council of the faculty; the report is then submitted to the Department of Graduate and Doctoral Studies.

The “Learning Outcomes” section is completed after the final certification at the end of the postgraduate course. The topic of the dissertation, code and affiliation of the dissertation council in which the defense took place or is planned (after the presentation of the completed work at the department) is indicated. In the case when, upon completion of postgraduate studies, the dissertation work is incomplete, the expected date and place of defense should be indicated.

About PhD

Postgraduate training at SSAU is carried out in 32 specialties in the field of physical and mathematical, chemical, technical, historical, philosophical, economic, and pedagogical sciences. For each scientific specialty of postgraduate studies, there is an opportunity to choose the form of study - full-time, part-time and the conditions of study (at the expense of the federal budget and under contracts with reimbursement of costs with individuals and legal entities). The passage of training in any form of education gives grounds for obtaining higher qualifications.

Postgraduate students are trained in accordance with their individual plan, which is developed jointly with the supervisor in accordance with the educational program for the preparation of a postgraduate student in their specialty and is approved by the rector of the university.

Graduate students must:

Pass candidate exams in a foreign language, history and philosophy of science and special discipline;

Have at least 7 published scientific papers, including at least 3 from the list recommended by the Higher Attestation Commission in this scientific area (list of publications of the VAKhttp:// vak. ed. gov. en/ en/ help_ desk/ list/) ;

Defend a dissertation (or submit a completed dissertation for preliminary examination).

Acceptance of documents for postgraduate study at SSAU is carried out from April 1 to September 15. On the SSAU website in the section "Education - Postgraduate and Doctoral Studies" there are rules for admission to postgraduate studies and a package of documents required for admission.

In accordance with subparagraph "b" of paragraph 2 of Article 24 federal law"On military duty and military service" citizens receiving postgraduate professional education in full-time education in educational institutions of higher professional education or scientific institutions that have state accreditation in the relevant areas of training (specialties) or scientific institutions that have a license to conduct educational activities in educational programs of postgraduate professional education , have the right to deferment from conscription for the duration of training, but not more than the standard terms for mastering the main educational programs and for the duration of the defense of the qualification work, but not more than one year after the completion of training in the educational program of postgraduate professional education.

Full information about SSAU postgraduate studies can be found on the SSAU websitessau. enin the education-postgraduate section or in the department of postgraduate and doctoral studies of the SSAU (building 3A, room 212, t. 267-48-78, 335-64-40)

Postgraduate. Benefits and opportunities.

Postgraduate studies - postgraduate education. The purpose of postgraduate studies is to educate qualified scientific personnel capable of conducting research work, independently setting and solving urgent scientific problems, adequately perceiving the scientific achievements of specialists in the same field of knowledge, and transferring their knowledge to the scientific community. The path to science is open to all those with a higher professional education, i.e. specialist or master's degree.

Why go into science? If, as a student, you are seriously interested in a certain area of ​​​​knowledge, or you are attracted to the work of a teacher, then graduate school is the right way to deepen this knowledge. It is far from always that postgraduate students enter immediately after graduation from the university. After working for some time, an understanding of the lack of knowledge comes, and for a career it would be nice to get a degree. There is no age limit for admission to graduate school.

An important step in the choice of postgraduate study is the choice of a scientific specialty. Scientific specialties are classified by the fields of knowledge by the Higher Attestation Commission. They have ciphers and are presented on the VAK website. Each specialty has its own passport, which describes the object of study of this specialty, as well as the range of issues considered in this area. It is necessary to decide on the specialty immediately, since dissertation councils accept dissertations clearly defined for this council for defense.

The next step in the choice of postgraduate study is the choice of the form of study. Currently, there are two forms of education: full-time and part-time.

Full-time postgraduate studies provide that postgraduate studies are the postgraduate student's actual place of work. He is obliged to attend training sessions, participate in the work of the department and institute, conduct classes with students, etc. Education in full-time postgraduate studies is carried out both on a budgetary and paid basis. A full-time budgetary graduate student receives a monthly stipend.

Correspondence postgraduate studies provide that the postgraduate student will go through the curriculum mostly independently.

Full-time graduate students are granted the right to deferment from military service for the entire period of study.
The basis for the emergence of the right to deferment from the army during postgraduate studies are the provisions of paragraph 2 "b" of Article 24 of the Federal Law of March 28, 1998 No. 53-FZ "On military duty and military service":
"Article 24. Postponement of conscription of citizens for military service
2. Citizens have the right to deferment from conscription for military service:
b) receiving postgraduate vocational education in full-time education in educational institutions of higher vocational education or scientific institutions that have state accreditation in the relevant areas of training (specialties) or scientific institutions that have a license to conduct educational activities in educational programs of postgraduate vocational education - for the period of study, but not over the standard terms for mastering the main educational programs and for the duration of the defense of the qualification work, but not more than one year after the completion of training in the educational program of postgraduate professional education.

Postgraduate education.

In accordance with federal law“On Higher and Postgraduate Professional Education” and Order No. 1365 of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation dated March 16, 2011, postgraduate studies are carried out in accordance with the professional educational program of postgraduate professional education (postgraduate studies).
The normative period for mastering the educational program of postgraduate professional education in full-time education cannot exceed three years, with the exception of training in certain specialties of scientists in technical, natural sciences, the training period for which may be four years.
The educational program of postgraduate professional education in full-time postgraduate studies consists of two main parts: educational and research.
The educational part includes the training of graduate students in compulsory, optional disciplines and pedagogical practice. The research part includes the research work of a graduate student and the preparation of a dissertation for the competition degree candidate of sciences, preparation and passing of candidate's examinations, preparation for the defense of a dissertation for the degree of candidate of sciences.
Education in compulsory disciplines includes the study by a postgraduate student of the history and philosophy of science, a foreign language, as well as special disciplines in accordance with the specialty. In addition, a graduate student can additionally undergo training in a discipline of their own choice from among those offered by the university. Training is carried out in the form of lectures, seminars and is mandatory to attend.

Education in elective disciplines is not mandatory, but you should listen to the recommendations of your supervisor.
For graduate students, the passage of pedagogical practice is provided.
Max Volume study load postgraduate student should not exceed 54 academic hours per week.
In accordance with the plan of research work, a graduate student takes candidate exams in the history and philosophy of science, a foreign language and a special discipline in accordance with the chosen topic of the dissertation research, and prepares a dissertation. The last stage of postgraduate study is preparation for the defense of a dissertation for the degree of Candidate of Sciences, which includes the submission of a dissertation to the department or the council for the defense of dissertations for the degree of Candidate of Sciences.
All of the above questions must be resolved by the graduate student during the period of study in graduate school.
For the rational distribution of time for postgraduate study, a postgraduate student, together with his supervisor, draws up an individual plan. An individual plan is drawn up within 2 months after enrollment in graduate school, is considered at a meeting of the department and at the faculty council. After that, the individual plan is approved by the rector of the university. The individual plan contains all the main stages of postgraduate education and his research work on the topic of the dissertation.
An individual plan is filled out by year of study and should contain the deadlines for passing candidate exams, the content of the stages of scientific research and the timing of their conduct, the educational and methodological work of a graduate student, the timing of scientific publications, the schedule for preparing dissertation chapters, the timing of pre-defense and defense.
The fulfillment of the individual plan by the graduate student is controlled by the supervisor and the head of the department, for which the certification of graduate students is held annually at the meetings of the department. The results of the attestation are approved by the faculty council. In case of non-fulfillment of the individual plan, a graduate student may be expelled for any period of stay in graduate school.

It must be borne in mind that the defense of the candidate's dissertation must take place no later than the date of completion of the postgraduate study. This means that 4-6 months before the term of the defense, the graduate student must submit the dissertation prepared by him to the meeting of the department and receive a recommendation to submit the work to the dissertation council for defense. The dissertation council gives permission to distribute the abstract, which must be at least a month before the defense.
