The article presents the experience of training foreign students of Rosatom State Corporation’s flagship universities at the MEPhI Resource Center. It is shown that over the period 2018–2024, more than 500 bachelor’s, specialist and master’s students from 33 countries studying at the five largest flagship universities of the state corporation (VSU, MEPhI, SPbPU, TPU, UrFU) underwent practical training in English and Russian at the Resource Center of Obninsk Institute for Nuclear Power Engineering (IATE MEPhI). Students were trained in six educational programs of 13 and 14 specialty groups. In the field of non-energy application of nuclear technologies, practice-oriented training at the Resource Center is carried out to a greater extent on radiation technologies in agriculture and the food industry. High results of cooperation in training foreign students in the field of agro-nuclear technologies between the IATE MEPhI and the National Research Center “Kurchatov Institute” – RIRAE were noted. Practical training of students at RIRAE is carried out on a unique gamma-installation GUR-120 for irradiation of agricultural raw materials and food products for the purposes of phytosanitary and microbiological safety, increase in shelf life, radiation stimulation. The competencies acquired by students in the field of agricultural radiation technologies are in demand by them when applying for jobs in the Centers of Nuclear Science and Technology. The interaction of the Resource Center of the IATE MEPhI and the leading research institutes of Obninsk in training foreign students is the basis for the development of the international scientific and educational center “Obninsk Tech” for training personnel for foreign businesses of the State Corporation “Rosatom” in the nuclear industry and related areas of application of nuclear technologies.
