The University of Aerospace Instrumentation (AIU) is one of the finest country’s higher educational institutions. Studying at our University gives solid background in all spheres of knowledge and prepares for practical work.

The University was established in January 1941. The first building was the Chesma Palace, a “stagecoach” palace built not far from the memorial to the Russian fleet and the victory at Chesma, the Church of St. John the Baptist, erected in 1780, in honour of the brilliant victory of the Russian Fleet under the command of Count Alexei Orlov over Turkey in 1770. Catherine II rested in this palace on her way to her beloved summer residence at Tsarskoe Selo.

Our University is a large higher educational establishment where more than 5 000 students are currently enrolled. Most of them are full-time students, and the rest are part-time students. There are also post-graduate students who carry out independent research in their field of interest and have teaching practice to receive Candidate’s degree in Science, Technology, Economics, Management and Law. For some specialties our University offers both the Bachelor’s Degree and the Master’s Degree. A Bachelor’s Degree can be often considered as a background for a higher, or advanced, or further degree, that is awarded after further study, usually involving research.

The course of study in my University lasts for five years, but specialists in many professions are trained during almost six years. The academic year is divided into two terms, or semesters – autumn and spring semesters. Upon term completion students have vacations. At the end of each term students pass examinations. The course of studies is concluded by state exams and the presentation of the diploma paper or project. Specialization begins in the third year.

Educational programmes are composed so that lectures on theory are combined with practical classes. Practical work is done in laboratories and studies equipped with cable television, local and international networks and computer-aided devices. Professors, associate professors and instructors help students to master their specialty.

Rector heads the University. Vice-Rector is in charge of academic and scientific work. Deans head faculties. The dean is in charge of students and educational matters. Faculty Board including professors, associate professors and senior teaching instructors assists the dean.

Tuition is mostly free, and many students receive state scholarships. Out-of-town students are provided with dormitories.

There are eleven faculties and about 100 departments at our University. Students of Faculty One specialize in aerospace instruments, devices and systems. Faculty Two trains specialists for radioengineering and electronics. Faculty Three is divided into the departments of Information Technologies in Electromechanical Devices and Robotics, Informatics and Automated Control in Technical Systems, Electroengineering and Technical Diagnostics. Faculty Four is the faculty of Computer Systems and Programming. Faculty Five trains specialists in Information Systems and Information Security. There is also the Faculty of Management and Social Technologies, the Faculty of Economics, the Law Faculty, the Part-time and Extra-mural Faculty, the Military Faculty and the Faculty of Retraining and Additional Education.
