Kazatomprom Chief Executive Advocates Nuclear Development
For Vladimir Shkolnik, becoming president of Kazatomprom, Kazakhstan’s state-owned nuclear corporation, has been a bit like coming home. Born in 1949, Shkolnik graduated from the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute as a specialist in nuclear science and engineering. He began his career in Kazakhstan in 1973 as a senior engineer at the Mangyshlak Atomic Energy Combine, a small experimental nuclear station. From there, he went on to hold such positions as director general of Kazakhstan’s Atomic Energy Agency, minister of science and higher education, and president of the National Academy of Sciences. In 2002, he was named minister of energy and mineral resources, and in 2007 he became minister of industry and trade, a post he held until recently.
