Institute of Physics and Technology (FTI)

The Institute trains specialists in applied physics, informatics and information security for science and high-tech sectors of the economy. Graduates will be able to create new mathematical methods and technologies for computer processing of information.

The PTI has 4 areas of training, of which 2 are directly related to IT: whats computer science

"Applied math"

Graduates will learn to create:

mathematical methods, models and technologies of information processes for computer processing of information,

software and hardware-software means of information protection,

mathematical methods for analyzing information in the Internet space,

automated data processing systems,

models and technologies of cryptographic information protection, authentication, digital signature, cryptographic protocols,

cryptographic tools in banking, commercial and other areas.

The direction of training includes 3 specializations:

Mathematical methods of computer modeling - development of computer models for forecasting and decision-making in industry, economics, ecology; creation of fundamentally new methods and technologies for processing and transmitting information.

Mathematical methods of cyber security - the development of mathematical methods, models and technologies for creating integrated protection systems that combine software, mathematical and hardware tools.

Mathematical methods of cryptology - development of cryptographic methods of information protection and innovative technologies for organizing cryptographic information protection systems.

"Security of information and communication systems"

Graduates will learn to create:

information protection and security policy in computer systems and networks,

protection of verbal information and information in telecommunication networks and communication systems,

integrated information security systems based on software and hardware-based information security,

software and hardware methods of information protection,

cyber security support systems.

Andrey, FTI:

“ Applied mathematics  is a more scientific direction. A lot of physics, mathematics, fundamental knowledge of IT (multimedia technologies, structural methods of pattern recognition, quantum informatics). In addition, we learn C ++, Java, OOP, web programming, system programming, cloud computing and GRID, operating systems, databases, networks, quality assurance, software systems design.

ICS security is more of an engineering specialty, but there are many fundamental subjects as well.

Oleg, FTI:

“ There is a huge amount of mathematics in applied mathematics , but physics is also enough - everything from mechanics to quantum informatics will be explained here. Plus there are several semesters of programming, and in general it is often used for other disciplines.

On safety  - physics is the least, mathematics is also much less than on PM. Informatics is about the same. It is much easier to study than in applied mathematics.

Phystech differs from all other faculties primarily in the level of knowledge (one of the first places in the KPI). But it's worth enrolling only if you're really willing to learn. High dropout rate in junior courses. "

Nikita, FTI:

“Phystech is an institute within the KPI, which was founded by the SBU, like they urgently needed a bunch of cool specialists in mathematics, physics and IT there. For several years, MIPT was almost the coolest Math Faculty in Ukraine, but then people got here, who, to put it mildly, do not like it. It's a shame what to say.

There are mainly three subjects taught here: programming, mathematics and physics. If you study at the Physicotechnical Institute, you will learn how to study)))

Then you can work everywhere. As conceived by the founders, graduates of physics and technology were supposed to go to information protection in IT departments, but with the same success it is possible to develop websites or program system products.

PTI is a special level of load. A striking example - there was a guy in our first year who did not pull at all. Moved to FPM - now the coolest in their group. I think the idea is clear.

The excellent teaching staff is worth noting. If you love to study, and the teachers see it, then they will treat you accordingly. The material is given very well, they also ask strongly, but this is for the best. There are, of course, a couple “in the family not without its black sheep”, but what faculty is without such? "
