Polytechnic

'-': some equipment and manuals, that we study, are outdated. All buildings, except the main one, need to be repaired. Some teachers are incompetent in their subjects. ' ': Opportunities. A lot of opportunities. Large number of events are held at the university and if you will participate in them, you will develop yourself very much.

Highly recommend

Ural state university has a long history since 1931. It has a high level of educational service. 80 scientific departments and many research projects. There is a commercial and public base of education. University accepting students from abroad. I highly recommend it. Most of lectures are great! The negative side of the university is the remote location of educational buildings.
