Education and career

edit

Bozhevolnyi was raised in the village of Kopanskaya, Yeysky District, Krasnodar Krai, USSR and grew up in a family of teachers of physics and mathematics. In 1978 he graduated from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology with a Master of Science degree in physics. In 1981, he earned a PhD-degree from the same university with the thesis entitled "Study of electro-optical modulators and deflectors based on diffuse waveguides in LiNbO₃". In 1998, he earned a Doctor of Science Degree at Aarhus University, Denmark, with his thesis entitled "Subwavelength apertureless light confinement".[2]
