Global Leadership in Science
In 2025, the analytical company Clarivate awarded 7,131 “Highly Cited Researcher” awards to 6,868 scientists from around the world, highlighting the importance of this achievement for the Ukrainian scholar. Yuriy Hohotsi continues to be an example for the scientific community of Kyiv Polytechnic Institute and all of Ukraine.
Hohotsi began his scientific career back in 1984, graduating from the KPI Faculty of Engineering Physics with a specialization in high-temperature materials and powder metallurgy, earning a master’s degree. Just two years later, in 1986, he became the youngest candidate of chemical sciences in Ukraine at that time. Subsequently, on May 14, 2018, the Academic Council of KPI awarded Yuriy Hohotsi the honorary title of Honorary Doctor for his significant contribution to the development of science.
Professor Hohotsi is represented in three categories simultaneously – chemistry, engineering, and materials science.
