Lomonosov Moscow State University - MSU (reviews)

I attended a summer semester at Lomonosov Moscow State University in the heart of Moscow, the beautiful capital of Russia, during the summer of 2017. The program is great for those looking to perfect their use of the Russian language and immerse themselves in Russian culture. Students are given an entry test (both written and oral) so that they may be placed in the class that best fits their academic needs. Other than the mandatory language course, students can pick between a variety of elective courses, including but not limited to Russian Art, Russian Culture through Field Trips, Phonetics, Russian Economy, etc.
All professors are extremely kind and qualified. The same goes for the staff as well, except for the head of the department and his secretary. I had the unfortunate experience of running into a payment issue at the beginning of the semester, and I had to sit through a disturbingly passive-aggressive meeting with both of them. I hope they have since been replaced.
As for the bureaucracy, it is, unfortunately, a typical example of Russian bureaucracy at its worst: people are very reluctant to do whatever task, no matter how simple, you’d ask them to do, including making copies of documents. Yes, you read that right.
Students get the option of residing at the MGU dorm, which was built under Stalin and is a landmark of the city itself. Several food courts are also present within the “citadel” of the dorm, and all entrances are guarded by security 24/7.
Overall, my experience at Moscow State University was great, even considering the unfortunate incidents that I have mentioned. If you love Russian culture and are looking forward to learning more about the country and perfecting the use of the language, I would highly recommend this experience! Keep in mind, however, that very few Russians speak English: therefore, it would be much more practical if you already had a basic understanding of the Russian language before embarking on this trip.

Very high level of the teaching staff. They give basic knowledge, which is used in all branches. there are service dormitories for suburban students, like me) I got the road to a bright future and are very grateful to this institution. Certificates of study (diplomas) have privileges when applying for work in EU countries.

I am a student at the European University Lomonosov Moscow State University – MSU of the Faculty of Economics, the teaching is very like. The teaching staff are all very comfortable, a huge library. There are excellent cafes on the territory where you can have a good rest after class, there is also a wonderful park! I really enjoy studying at this university

I do not know how others choose a university, and I chose it precisely because of the beautiful view of Vorobyovy Gory. I came to come from Tver and so I dreamed of studying and looking out the window at the beauty. There was such a romance in my head. By the way after school, I still have to live in Moscow. I entered the sociological faculty of the passing ball. I did not like that our faculty needed an electronic pass. If it is not, then you can not get to study, which in the future is not threatened with anything good and perhaps deduction. The hostel was provided to us as a nonresident. Repair is not available in all rooms. Mice and cockroaches are present. Near the park and the embankment. Thanks to the Moscow State University, we often got free tickets to the theatre.

super university, the teachers are good, the hostel is at the level, I like very good students here, I really like how the teachers teach us, in short, this is the best university I advise all to teach here the best. if you do not know where to go then I advise this institution here you have a future. here are a lot of entertainment and generally comfortable conditions for learning. there are a lot of nice guys with whom you can chat on different topics. The teacher here is also the best, in general, I advise this university.

Hello, today I would like to talk about how I studied at this university
In teaching, the topic of mathematical analysis, all the nuances, various theorems are studied in sufficient detail, and also the differentials are described in detail. Also, topics such as:
-Discrete Math
-Theory of games
probability theory
I also learned to program in Pascal.work with databases such as MySql and SQL lite.
The training method is such that the first two courses have been biased towards general subjects, and already starting from the third one begins a more in-depth study of the profession.
I would also like to mention the high qualification of teachers and the head of the department Yu.I. Zhuravleva.
Excellent practice and the prospect for better learning is that the faculty cooperates with a number of IT companies, which makes it possible to have no difficulties in finding work in the future.
If we talk about the hostel, then for living are provided double and triple rooms. On each floor there are thirty-six living rooms, two kitchens (each with 2 gas stoves). Kitchens are open 24 hours a day, and there is a laundry in the basement.
In the buildings there is an opportunity to access the Internet. All important information for residents is placed on the stands located in the elevator halls on the first floor of the hostel.
The university dormitories are 7 branches, which consist of separate buildings.

The best and most famous university in Russia. More prestigious in Russia simply does not exist. It’s very difficult to enter there, you need to write the EGE almost perfectly, close to 100 points. But if you do and study diligently, then you will be a sought-after specialist and you will not have any problems in life. There is one familiar professor from there, a very highly educated person, knows his business – we can conclude that the teachers there are very upscale.

Moscow State University is a great choice if you’d like to receive fundamental theoretical education with all its advantages and disadvantages. What is more, if you are a foreign student you have a clear set of it’s necessary for the application, lists of examination questions always attached on the site of each faculty. Speaking of the site, it’s one the things that can be improved, in the meaning of digital appearance. In addition, the number of bilateral programs could be improved, due to Russia is not part of Erasmus exchange program, increased number of international agreements will help to improve the quality of education in general.
