The author notes that the Russian system is necessary for the selection of professional civil servants across the country and it is even more true for the creative engineering professionals, those who have and can and should create and develop innovative technologies. For a real transition to an innovative economy must create the necessary critical mass of innovation. We lag behind the advanced countries in terms of the application of innovation, integral technological solutions, creating instruments for implementing new technological solutions. Necessary contribution to this process can make Russian Academy of Sciences in the case of its reconstruction. At the end of the article the author comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to attract the real modernization of Russian and foreign specialists examines the latest advances in nanotechnology that have been created in the last months of the year.
