MSU - what is this? Faculties. Passing score. Open Day at the Moscow State University

One of the oldest and most glorious universities of the country is the Moscow State University. This is the largest classical university, the center of national culture and science. In 1940, Moscow State University was named after the brilliant Russian scientist Mikhail Lomonosov. The full name of the university is rarely pronounced, the abbreviation "MSU" is a symbol of better education, it is used to it, and therefore it is used more widely. The Federal State Budget Educational Institution calls this institution only in documents.

Structure

MSU are fifteen scientific research institutes, forty three faculties, six branches (including abroad), more than three hundred departments. In Azerbaijan (Baku), Tajikistan (Dushanbe), Armenia (Yerevan), Uzbekistan (Tashkent) and in the hero city of Sevastopol. Until 1995 there was a branch of Moscow State University in Ulyanovsk, now in its place a separate university. Until 2013, a branch in Pushchino operated for six consecutive years, but according to monitoring results it was found ineffective and ceased to exist. MSU is one of the best libraries in the country, with a full spectrum of literature of all fields of knowledge of mankind, which is presented not only in Russian, but also in almost all foreign languages.

SUNC MSU (decoding: Specialized Educational and Scientific Center) - founded in 1963, the boarding school, in the opening of which involved the largest scientists of the USSR, including AN Kolmogorov, preparing a shift for university graduates. This is today the most prestigious school from secondary schools. All applicants must visit the MSU museums - the Open Doors Day (2017 - January 15) did not leave anyone indifferent. On the site of the university you can see information about what, where and how it happened at all faculties. The decipherment of the word "MSU" is known to everyone, but even students who are studying there are not able to cover everything that happens there, even by thought. The scope is too large.

In brief

The most important - certainly, the history museum of Moscow State University. Open Day 2017 shows how interesting it is for future entrants. Also, many reviews are left in the Research Museum of Zoology, the Museum of Geography, the University Herbarium is amazing, and the Botanical Garden is loved not only by all of Moscow, but also by tourists visiting it. At the university there are organizations of interest. There is a student theater, many creative clubs: poetic, "Golden forests", a club of climbers, a yacht club and many others.

The own printed organ is the "Bulletin of the Moscow State University", where the entire activity of the university is constantly covered. In addition, the most powerful computer is the SKIF MSU supercomputer. Students create public organizations to actively participate in the life of the country and the capital. For example, there is a squadron guarding nature (biological faculty), voluntary fire brigades. Almost every student of the historical faculty works in the archive - the largest of all university departments. The Faculty of Economics of Moscow State University holds a variety of interuniversity master classes and scientific and practical seminars. Philologists and historians go on a folklore expedition. Life is literally everywhere. Since 1992, the post of rector is occupied by Academician VA Sadovnichy.

History

Moscow University was established on the proposal of MV Lomonosov and II Shuvalov. The discovery occurred after the Empress Elizabeth signed the decree on January 24, 1755. Since then, January 25 was always celebrated by students of Moscow State University as Tatyana's Day, and later all universities joined this holiday. The very first lectures were read at the university only at the end of April. The first director was A. M. Argamakov, and the curator was I. I. Shuvalov. The main university of the country was subordinated only to the government - the Senate. Nobody could judge a professor, except for the university itself, and that should have been the sanction of the director and the curator. The head was the curator, who appointed teachers and approved programs and courses of lectures. The director was supposed to be engaged in economic activities.

Initially, the Moscow State University was located in the former Zemsky Order (the building of the Main Pharmacy), where the Historical Museum (Red Square) is now. Catherine the Great moved him to a special building, built by the architect Kazakov, on Mokhovaya Street, on its opposite side. In the eighteenth century, only three faculties were opened: law, medicine and philosophy. In 1779, a noble guesthouse was founded by the poet Kheraskov, who later transformed into a gymnasium. Within the walls of the university was published the most popular of the country's newspapers - "Moscow Gazette". In the nineteenth century, new faculties appeared in Moscow State University: mathematics and physics, verbal sciences, medical, and also moral and political, total - four faculties. In the twentieth century, in 1949, construction of a new remarkable main building on Vorobyovy Gory began.

Construction

Now what does MSU mean? The decoding is still the same, but this university is located in more than six hundred buildings. The total area of all buildings is over one million square meters. The territory in Moscow alone is one hundred and twenty hectares. How could Mikhail Lomonosov dream of such a university? Huge Fundamental Library - The Intellectual Center was rebuilt in 2005. Housewarming celebrated three faculties. A new political science has appeared. Five buildings of the Medical Center have been built - with a polyclinic, analytical and diagnostic centers, a hospital for three hundred seats and an educational building. In 2009, they received their third building students of the faculties of the humanities, and in 2013 in the fourth building of the Moscow State University, the Faculty of Law moved. A hostel for six thousand seats, a stadium and two rings of buildings around the Fundamental Library have already been built. In addition, the old and new territories were connected by the largest underground passage under the entire Lomonosov Avenue. Newcomers at Moscow State University: economic faculty, research and laboratory buildings.

This scope is worth it because there is not a higher level of graduate training in the country and very few in the world. The ratings, including international ones, also speak about this. Moscow State University is represented in almost every world rating system. Among the universities of Russia it is stable and for many years in the first place, almost always. The only university in the CIS, to which the agency "RA" has assigned a grade "A" in the rating. In 2016, the reputation rating of Times Higher Education brought the Moscow State University only the thirtieth place among the universities of the world, but it must be taken into account that the position of the Russian university will always be lower than that of the English or American universities.

Faculty of Economics

MSU, as already mentioned, is a classic, the oldest university in Russia with forty-three faculties, where the cadres of the most diverse fields, whose professors and graduates for the benefit of their homeland have made a huge, invaluable contribution to the national science, are being prepared perfectly. The Economics Faculty of Moscow State University is the largest in terms of the number of students, the first to pass to level training. Bachelors spend four years in the university. They are about 2,300 MSU students. The master's program is a two-year program, where about 650 people study there. Eight dissertational councils of the faculty promote the defense of theses of future candidates and doctors of science, and study in the graduate school of about 450 people.

There are more than 400 teachers at the faculty, including 92 doctors and 220 candidates of science. Here every year, by invitation, educational and scientific work is conducted by leading Russian economists from research institutes, government bodies, from the sphere of big business. Among the invited many foreign professors. The faculty has twenty-one departments, nine research and five auxiliary laboratories. The highest governing body is the Academic Council headed by the dean, deputies, heads of departments and laboratories, as well as elective teachers, scientists and students. The scientific council solves the most burning problems, all the strategic issues of life and activities of the faculty and in general MSU.

Olympics

Moscow State University with the support of other educational centers annually conducts school and student's Olympiads. For example, in the educational center "University Standards" two Olympiads are prepared - "Conquer the Sparrow Hills" and "Lomonosov". In general, MSU Olympiads are held in ten subjects: Russian language, foreign languages, social studies, geography, history, biology, chemistry, literature, physics, mathematics. Thus, preparation for the entrance exams is conducted, since the program of the Olympiads is included in the preparatory course of the Moscow State University. For a long time such practice when winners and prize-winners receive privileges: or enrollment without examinations, or hundred points in profile USE, or hundred points for additional introductory test works long time. About some Olympiads there is an opportunity to tell more in detail.

First of all, it is the Tournament of Cities, where the "Conferences" are held. They are in quotes, because there are no plenary reports and an official program in general. This is more like informal meetings, where the winners of the international mathematical tournament gather. Students accompany the teacher, but they do not play the main role here. The goals of such conferences are to teach able students to act independently, to solve research problems, sometimes with access to open problems in mathematics. To just tell the terms of such a plan, a whole lecture will be required, and very possibly not one. The first day of work is the presentation of tasks that are solved individually and collectively (the form is free), and is given for this several days with two finishes - preliminary and final. After this, the decisions are checked, and their thorough analysis is carried out. Such conferences - recreation is active, work is full, intense and creative, plus an interesting communication. They pass in different parts of the country and beyond its borders, from Pereslavl-Zalessky to Adygea, from Kaliningrad and Belarus to Teberda and Yugoslavia, from Uglich to Hamburg.

RAS, Moscow State University and the School of Mathematics

Since 2001, a unique in composition of participants and teachers is a mathematical school. For two weeks a hundred students listen to lectures and are engaged in seminars that last 74 minutes each session (shorter than the university couple, but longer than the academic hour). Despite this, many people attend four classes a day, so it's interesting for them. Those who have passed through this school are already able, on their own experience, to understand what modern mathematics is and what MGU means. The deciphering by yesterday's winners of the Olympiads of this abbreviation has already been made, each of them is sure that this is "My State University".

The results of these schools were numerous books and brochures, videos of all classes were made. Naturally, one MSU could not arrange this event every year with such a big scale. This is possible only in cooperation. In the organization and provision of lecturers the leading role is played by the Moscow State University and the Russian Academy of Sciences. Always help "Yandex", "Dynasty", the fund "Mathematical etudes", the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research and many others. The Commonwealth, of course, is interested and mutually beneficial, for the most capable students will attend the Moscow State University, and later they will join the ranks of scientists and researchers, reinforcing their talents with the reputation of these institutions. It is already a tradition to hold such summer schools, and the real happiness for gifted schoolchildren is a week and a half of communication with the best mathematicians of Russia, scientists of the Russian Academy of Sciences and professors of the Moscow State University.

Olympics "Lomonosov"

This Olympiad is the first level, it gives preferences for admission to Moscow State University to the maximum. The Olympiad "Lomonosov" has been held since 2005, always including such stages as the selection and full-time tour. Selection is done in absentia, for which you need to perform preliminary assignments, the terms of which are placed annually on the university's website. For example, mathematics, the eleventh grade: 2,500 schoolchildren take part in the first round, in the second stage there are only a little over eight hundred.

Passing score - five solved problems out of ten. This year 3,500 participants of the first round are expected. The Olympiad "Lomonosov" is held not only at the main, but also at many regional venues, which is coordinated in advance with respect to the profiles. Eleven-graders who have passed into the final stage can choose a place for participation themselves. The Olympiad starts everywhere at the same time, the tasks are the same. They are checked by common criteria and centrally, the place of participation does not matter.

Where it happens
