Moscow State University of Instrument Engineering and Informatics (MGUPI) is recognized in Russia and abroad as a university of classical university traditions, coupled with modern educational technologies. A high-class educational center with rich research practices, since its opening, has been constantly improving in accordance with the needs dictated by the time, expanding and deepening the content of educational programs, improving the quality of training of engineering personnel - this is MGUPI. Reviews about this educational institution always put it on one of the highest levels of the ranking of universities in the corresponding direction.
Renaming
From 1936 to 1950, the university was called the Moscow Correspondence Institute of the Metalworking Industry, abbreviated as MZIMP. Further, until 1988, he was the All-Union Correspondence Machine-Building Institute, that is, VZMI. In 1988 it was renamed the Moscow Institute of Instrument Engineering, and in 1994 it became known as the MoscowState Academy of Instrument Engineering and Informatics (MGAPI).
Starting from 2005, this is the Moscow State University of Instrument Engineering and Informatics (MGUPI), which in 2014 was merged with MSTU MIREA, and therefore the full name of the university began to sound different: Moscow State University of Information Technologies, Radio Engineering and electronics, abbreviated as MGUITRE. With any of these names, MGUPI received simply wonderful feedback on the quality of graduates, structural changes did not affect the level of education.
About University
MGUPI is now a leader in the training of specialists in science-intensive industries: automation, telecommunications, cybernetics, computer and information technology, electronics, radio engineering, biotechnology, chemistry, and so on. A rather rare training system has been implemented here, which not only ensures the high efficiency of the knowledge gained, but also guarantees the rapid adaptation of graduates in the real conditions of modern production. This system allows you to link the base department of the university and a specific base enterprise.
There are significantly more than fifty such departments at MGUPI today - at the Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, at design bureaus, at the most high-tech enterprises of the country. When deep general scientific theoretical training is combined with practical activities with the help of large industry-forming enterprises of an innovative type using advanced technologies, the training of graduates will be effective and of high quality. The university also hasdeveloped network of scientific laboratories, research centers, design bureaus. That is why MGUPI receives only the most positive feedback about graduates.
Teachers
Here students study in unique conditions: they are taught by more than twenty academicians and corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and members of other, including international, scientific societies and academies - more than two hundred and eighty. The most famous scientific schools that are recognized all over the world, the achievements of MGUPI scientists have become the basis for partnerships with industrial associations, research centers and universities in Japan, China, Finland, Singapore, Korea, France, Germany and many other countries.
The structure of the university has an institute of international education, where more than five hundred foreign students from thirty countries are trained at the same time, exchanges of scientific and teaching staff, mutual internships, academic student exchanges, double diploma programs have become a tradition. A strong teaching staff, modern material and technical bases, active scientific activity and extensive international relations - this is today's MGUPI. Moscow is proud of this university.
Education level
The range of educational services is very wide and suitable for absolutely any category - it is interesting here for both schoolchildren and mature specialists, scientists and teachers. Pre-university training at MGUPI is very well developed. Selection committeeworks actively, in particular, career guidance work is also being carried out. The university operates a physics and mathematics school, which contains more than twenty branches - sponsored schools of the region, as well as preparatory courses.
Students are trained at all levels - from undergraduate to postgraduate studies, inclusive, in accordance with the Federal Law on Education, which MGUPI also adheres to. The admission committee, located on the university campus, informs applicants in detail about the features of admission, including the target set, providing a list of customer enterprises. There you can get answers to all questions and apply.
Steps
Further, if admission to the university has taken place, each student is waiting for the first levels of higher education - a specialist or a bachelor's degree. The latter is designed for the formation of practical professional skills, coupled with fundamental training of the widest profile. The specialist, on the other hand, has a narrower profile in teaching and a specific subject area. Students study from four to five and a half years and receive either a bachelor's degree or a specialist's qualification.
Bachelors can continue their studies at the magistracy, and after completing the speci alty there is also a chance to go straight to graduate school. The second level of education is a two-year master's program, after which there is an opportunity to enter the third, postgraduate study, where you have to study for another three or four years (depending on the speci alty). After defending the dissertation, the graduate student receives a scientificdegree. It is this educational chain that is practiced at MGUPI.
Tuition fees
First-year students enrolled in a full-time speci alty or bachelor's program who did not pass through state-funded education must pay for tuition from their own funds. By the way, there are quite a lot of state-funded places in MGUPI/MIREA every year, but the competition for paid education is not getting smaller - the authority of this university is too high.
Depending on the direction of training, the student is required to pay for the annual education the amount of ninety-eight or one hundred and eighteen thousand rubles. So, for example, training in the speci alty "Mechanical Engineering" or "Innovation" is the first amount, and in "Software Engineering" or "Instrument Engineering" - the second.
Where to study
MGUPI campuses have more than one address, since they are located in different parts of Moscow. There is an extensive complex of buildings on Prospekt Vernadsky and an even larger one on Stromynka, also on Malaya Pirogovskaya, on Prospekt Mira, on Sokolina Gora, on Usacheva Street and in Shchipkovsky Lane.

Branches
MGUPI has several branches inMoscow region and one - in the south of Russia. From Fryazino, Serpukhov and the Sergiev Posad branch, it is enough to simply keep in touch with the head university, which is the Moscow State University of Instrument Engineering and Informatics. Stavropol is located far away, and the branch opened in this city has all the features of independence.
It is slightly larger than the branches near Moscow, has no less excellent teachers and is the pride of the Stavropol Territory. The branch not only occupies the top rankings of local universities, but also actively participates in all regional and city events. With a high level of professional higher education provided by the MGUPI branch, reviews about it will certainly be positive.
