RTU MIREA is one of the key universities in Europe that trains highly professional specialists in the field of IT, computer security, electronics, radio engineering, chemistry, and biotechnology. And, judging by the many positive reviews, the preparation is carried out at a high level. The university is a member of the Association of Technical Universities in Europe (Top Industrial Managers for Europe).
History
In 1947, the All-Union Correspondence Energy Institute (VZEI) was founded - the leading university in the system of correspondence education in energy and radio engineering speci alties. VZEI had powerful branches in Kyiv, Leningrad, Baku, Sverdlovsk, Novosibirsk and Tashkent, where highly qualified engineers were also trained and their knowledge was improved by retraining. In the image and likeness of VZEI, other technical universities of the USSR were also formed: its educational and consulting departments and branches often became the basis for the creation of new polytechnic institutes in Kemerovo, Omsk, Kirov and someother cities.
MIREA, reviews of which are so favorable, began long before its birth. VZEI gradually changed taking into account the needs of the development of science and technology. In the early 60s, specialists in electronic engineering and radio electronics were trained here. The institute was gradually reformed and moved away from clean energy to science-intensive technologies. Therefore, some faculties (hydropower, thermal power, electrical power and electromechanical) went to MPEI (Moscow Power Engineering Institute). On the other hand, new faculties were opened - automation, computer technology, measuring equipment and telemechanics, design and production of radio electronics equipment, as well as the evening radio engineering faculty. Since 1964, the institute has come close to training engineers for the defense industry in such speci alties as radio engineering, cybernetics, electronics, computer technology.
MIREA (1967)
In 1967, VZEI was transformed into MIREA and reviews of the institute began to note the training of exceptionally valuable engineering personnel for the radio and electronic industries, for the high-tech industries of mechanical engineering and instrumentation, for control systems and automation equipment. Students began to study not only in absentia, but also in person.
At first, MIREA was based in one of the MPEI buildings, but gradually received its own space and expanded to six buildings: on Preobrazhenka and on Vernadsky Avenue. The educational and scientific complex MIREA, reviews of which are also positive, is located on Borovskoye Highway. In complexthere is a building of an information and computing center and a scientific and technical library.
RTU MIREA
In 2018, a new federal institution "MIREA - Russian Technological University" was established. It included the Moscow State Technical University of Radio Engineering, Electronics and Automation, which has always had good reviews (MSTU MIREA), MGUPI - Moscow State University of Instrument Engineering and Informatics (MGUPI MIREA is also famous for reviews), Moscow State University of Fine Chemical Technologies named after M. V.. Lomonosov (MITKhT named after M. V. Lomonosov), Russian Research Institute of Information Technologies and Computer-Aided Design Systems (FGBU RosNII ITiAP), All-Russian Research Institute of Technical Aesthetics (VNIITE), Institute of Professional Administration and Integrated Energy Efficiency (IPK of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia) and the Institute of Modern Educational Technologies and Projects (ISOTP).

Since 2015, educational and scientific megalaboratories have been created at RTU MIREA - scientific and technical centers where the developments of several departments or institutes are combined and combinededucational, scientific and industrial opportunities. In cooperation with Samsung Electronics, in 2017, laboratories for Information Technologies of the Internet of Things and Multimedia Technologies were opened and equipped. In 2020, the Laboratory for Tracking and Motion Capture Technologies appeared with Vicon equipment. In November 2020, the Cyberzone cybersport center was opened: 30 powerful computers, two Playstation 4 Pro, air hockey, table football, VR zone, flight simulator, Chill-out zone and table games zone.
During the existence of MIREA, student reviews have not changed their tone: it is interesting to study there, the university cooperates with the Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, design bureaus and enterprises from the field of high-tech industries in the Moscow region (RNC "Kurchatov Institute", NPO "Agat", GSKB Concern "Almaz -Antey, State Enterprise NPO Astrophysics, INEUM, NIIMA Progress, etc.), under which more than 52 basic departments have been opened. So, since 2019, the Department of Immunological Chemistry has been functioning at the Federal State Budgetary Institution “N. N. N. F. Gamaleya, which is headed by the Deputy Director for Research of the Gamaleya Center, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Biological Sciences Denis Yuryevich Logunov. In 2020, it was he who led the group that developed the Sputnik V vaccine against COVID-19.
