Siberian Federal University 
Specialized English-Taught International Semester Program of Master’s Level.
The Semester Program covers the main issues associated with modeling of processes of oil refining and petrochemistry.
The aim is to form students' basic knowledge of modern methods of functional, simulated and mathematical modeling of industrial processes and petroleum refining and petrochemicals systems.
Objectives:
- to create an objective notion of features of petrochemical processes, industrial catalysis, and lean manufacturing;
- to provide students with the basics of the petrochemical processes modeling;
- to give students methods of construction of models of different types and their implementation in computer technology using modern software applications.
Learning outcomes
By the end of the program, students will be able to:
- use innovative solving approaches in the field of modeling of chemical-technological processes;
- model different chemical reactors, heat exchangers and other equipment of the petrochemical industry;
- construct different mathematical models of petrochemical processes and analyse petrochemical feedstock;
- calculate the material balance of the reactors and other equipment.
Teaching methods
The course includes lectures, home assignments, and a final exam. Independent learning implies studying informational resources recommended by a teacher and performing individual assignments.
Career prospects
Students who successfully passed the module may continue their education in Master’s Program ‘Petroleum Chemistry and Refining’, and further continue studying to earn a PhD SibFU Degree.
This Semester Module of Master’s Level is designed for current and future employees of oil and gas companies. The program provides students with means of promotion.

Academic buildings and dormitories of the university are surrounded by natural forest lands and easily accessible by the public transport. More information about the University Campus can be found here.
The City of Krasnoyarsk
Krasnoyarsk is the administrative capital of Krasnoyarsky kray — second largest region of Russia. It is a big industrial and educational centre with a population of more than 1 million people, and also an important junction of the Trans-Siberian Railway.
The city is located on the banks of the Yenisey River in the valley formed by the Eastern Sayan Mountains. Nature reserve Stolby ("pillars") has become the city’s visiting card.
Among the famous people born in Krasnoyarsk are artist Vasily Surikov, opera singer Dmitri Hvorostovsky, biathlete Evgeny Ustyugov, skeletonist Alexander Tretyakov and ice-hockey player Alexander Semin.
In March 2019 Krasnoyarsk proudly hosted the
