Arnold S. Borukhovich obtained his doctorate in physics and mathematics in 1989. The second doctor degree in physics and mathematics he received in 1989 at the Institute of Ural Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences with a work “Thermodynamic peculiarities and phases transitions at the magnetic semiconductors based on 3d and 4f metals”. In 1997 he became professor at the Russian State Vocational Pedagogical University, Yekaterinburg.

His research interests concern: physics of variable composition phases, physics of magnets and magnetic phase transitions,physics and chemistry of the magnetic semiconductors, semiconductor spintronics, weak superconductivity and tunnel junctions.
