Eight scientists of the department: professors  Avrunin. O.G., Muzika K.M., Bykh A.I., associate professors Snezhko D.V., Kukoba A.V., Datsok A.N., senior teachers Selivanova K. and Nosova Ya.V. received awards for publication activity in 2019, which, according to the KNURE regulation, is assigned to authors – employees and applicants for higher education for publications in scientific journals indexed in world rank scientometric databases Scopus and Web of Science Core Collection, depending on the impact factor of the publication (Web of Science Core Collection) and CiteScore (Scopus), taking into account the number of citations of the author. This relatively high indicator of publication activity contributes to the growth of international university rankings, such as The Thimes High Education and QS, and allows our staff and research groups to participate in scientific grants. We congratulate our scientists and wish them further significant publications in the world-class rating publications!
