One of the key universities in Europe that trains highly qualified specialists in the field of technology is MIREA University. Reviews from students and graduates show that the old name does not want to give way to the new one: since 2014 it has been the Moscow State University of Instrument Engineering and Informatics (MGUPI). Apparently, for this reason, the abbreviation that belonged to the predecessors was retained. This university joined the Association of Technical Universities of Europe (Top Industrial Managers for Europe).

Story

This wonderful university was founded in 1947 and was not the Moscow Institute of Radio Engineering, Electronics and Automation, but the All-Union Correspondence Energy Institute - VZEI - until 1967, after which it was renamed, and students began to study not only part-time, but also full-time. VZEI had powerful branches in Kyiv, Leningrad, Baku, Sverdlovsk, Novosibirsk and Tashkent, where they also trained highly qualified engineers and improved their knowledge through retraining.

In the image and likeness of VZEI, other technical universities of the USSR were formed: its educational and consulting departments and branches often became the basis for the creation of new polytechnic institutes in Kemerovo, Omsk, Kirov and some other cities. That is, VZEI was considered the leading institute in the entire system of training in radio engineering and energy, where there was a real forge of personnel for many of the newest sectors of the national economy, including the defense industry.

VZEI until 1963

MIREA, reviews of which are so favorable, began long before its birth. VZEI gradually changed in line with the needs of the development of science and technology. At the very beginning of the sixties, specialists in electronic engineering and radio electronics were already trained here. Even then, the institute began to reform and move away from clean energy to high-tech technologies. Therefore, some faculties went to MPEI (Moscow Energy Institute): hydropower, thermal power, electrical power and electromechanical.

Next to the radio engineering faculty, VZEI opens the faculties of automation, computer technology, measuring equipment and telemechanics, design and production of radio electronics equipment. At the same time, the evening radio engineering faculty opened. Since 1964, the institute has come close to training engineers for the defense industry in cybernetics, electronics, and computer technology.

MIREA (1967)

After the transformation of VZEI into MIREA, reviews of the institute began to note the training of extremely valuable engineering personnel for the radio and electronics industry, for the knowledge-intensive branches of mechanical engineering and instrument making, for control systems and automation equipment. At first, MIREA did not have its own space at all, since it was based on the territory of MPEI, in one of its buildings. Gradually, the institute received and expanded its own premises to six buildings: on Preobrazhenka and on Vernadsky Avenue. The MIREA educational and scientific complex, reviews of which are also positive, is located on Borovskoye Highway. The complex houses an information and computing center building and a scientific and technical library.

During the existence of MIREA, student reviews have not changed their tone: it is interesting to study there, the university cooperates with fifty enterprises from the field of high-tech production, which are the basis for the work of the departments. Educational programs are certified according to international standards, the latest scientific laboratories and student design bureaus have been created at MIREA. Student reviews cannot be negative about a university that has academies from such iconic manufacturers as Microsoft, Cisco, VMware, EMC, Huawei and many others.

Military department

MIREA has basic departments at leading enterprises of the military-industrial complex, therefore one of the educational divisions is MIREA. Reviews of specialties very often mention this with gratitude.

Personnel are forged here for both law enforcement agencies and the reserves of the RF Armed Forces. This is a civilian university, but the military department has been retained, and reserve officers graduate from here. Here, students are taught one day a week from the fourth to the eighth semester, classes last six hours, after which students are given two hours for self-study.

Dormitory

One of the first questions when entering MIREA is the dormitory. There are also plenty of reviews about it, but, unlike reviews about teaching and the quality of university training in general, opinions vary. First of all, because there is simply not enough of it: with a huge number of students, the number of places in the hostel is simply incomparable - there are only 297 of them. There is always competition for a place to live. Naturally, certain categories of students are excluded from the competition: orphans, low-income people, disabled people and others.

Nevertheless, students speak well of the hostel itself: good conditions have been created there for recreation, study, and sports. There is a library, Internet access in a computer lab, a dining room, a gym, a medical isolation ward and a storage room. Security is provided by access control and 24-hour video surveillance. All entrances have fire and alarm buttons, installed

Institutes

MIREA includes ten institutes that implement higher education programs: master's, specialist's and bachelor's degrees. The Institute of High Technologies, as a structural unit of MIREA, trains bachelors, masters, specialists and graduate students. There is a long range of directions and specialties. Also here, engineering and technical and management employees improve their skills and undergo retraining. A lot of research work is being carried out. More than 75 percent of the institute's teaching staff have academic degrees and titles.

The faculty of cybernetics at MIREA University receives the most numerous responses. Reviews indicate that its graduates are in great demand. (To be precise, it is not a faculty, but an institute of cybernetics.) It is a unit in which there is an educational department, sixteen departments, educational and research centers and laboratories. Of all the areas and specializations of MIREA, software engineering is of particular interest to applicants. Reviews from masters who have received such an education indicate that this specialization is worth spending another two years after a bachelor’s degree for the pleasure of doing science.

Other institutes:

• innovative technologies and public administration,
• information technologies,
• integrated safety and special instrumentation,
• radio engineering and telecommunication systems,
• fine chemical technologies,
• technical aesthetics and design,
• management and economics,
• electronics.

Faculties

In the structure of MIREA there are three more institutes of a special warehouse in addition to the ten mentioned above. This is an international institute of computer science with training programs for foreigners, an institute of pre-university training with programs for college and school students, as well as an institute of additional education.

And a number of non-specialized faculties exist within MIREA. This is the faculty of general training (physics, chemistry, higher mathematics and much more), the evening faculty with the same higher education programs, the faculty of distance and correspondence education and the college of instrument engineering and information technology.

MIREA also has twelve branches, and the most favorable information about them is also there. Most of them are located near Moscow: in Sergiev Posad, Fryazino, Serpukhov and other cities.

Who writes reviews?

More than seven thousand students, both Russian and foreign, can write reviews at MSTU MIREA. Surely not everything was written, but it is simply impossible to read in full what students and graduates think or remember about MIREA. Because there are a lot, a lot of reviews. Both graduate students and doctoral students showed up there, of whom there are significantly more than two hundred and fifty at the university.

Future applicants who are undergoing pre-university training also write, and there are also many of them - more than a thousand. And there are especially many reviews from those receiving additional education, but this is understandable: far more than ten thousand people study at MIREA (MGUPI). There are also reviews about the training of Doctors of Science and Candidates of Science, who are trained and defended in twenty specialties. MIREA constantly operates six dissertation councils, where dissertations are defended and academic degrees are sought.

Teachers

At MIREA, more than two thousand teachers and professors give their experience and knowledge to the younger generation. From this seemingly huge number, one can single out well over 1000 candidates of sciences and associate professors, plus about 3600 professors and doctors of sciences, 5 corresponding members and full members of the Russian Academy of Sciences and about 100 members from other academies. There are also about 50 laureates of the State Prize and Government Prize in MIREA.

That's why there are such reviews about MIREA. Moscow, or rather its applicants, with all the abundance of options for obtaining higher education, very often chooses this particular university. There are many advantages and almost no disadvantages, judging by the reviews. There is a developed educational base and excellent technical facilities. Students undergo practical training in design bureaus. For example, in the Scientific and Technical Center "Electronics", the technology park, and the international laboratory LEMAC. The higher mathematics department of the Faculty of Cybernetics is highly praised: both because they teach very well and treat students with tireless attention.

International activity

Cooperation in science and education with foreign universities is the most important component of the university’s strategic development line, therefore ties with them are very close: joint research projects, practical seminars and conferences are carried out, teaching and student mobility is developed in the form of an exchange of leading teaching staff.

Now MIREA is in close contact with institutions in France, Ireland, Sweden, Switzerland, Austria, Great Britain, Italy, Czech Republic, Spain, Japan, Taiwan, China, USA, Kyrgyzstan, Vietnam, Korea and many others. MIREA is also a member of many international associations and associations.

academic mobility

Scientific cooperation with foreign countries involves joint scientific research, for which special joint units have been created. The key direction of such work is supporting academic mobility, that is, the implementation with preliminary development of educational programs, training and internship of students abroad, obtaining two diplomas - MIREA and a partner university, exchange of leading teachers and professors for lecturing and conducting scientific research.
