If you are not a citizen of the Russian Federation, then you need to get a certificate stating that you are a full-time student, and you do not need to be deregistered from the military register at your place of residence.
5 . STUDYING AT MIPT AND LIFE AT PHYSTECH
5. 1 ) MIPT takes 3rd place in the ranking of Russian universities. Does this mean that there are 2 more universities in Russia that teach physics better?
Ratings vary. There are ratings based on sociological surveys, there are ratings conducted by the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation and others. Almost incomparable universities are compared, for example, the State University Higher School of Economics and Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. Of course, economics is taught much better at the Higher School of Economics. The fact that MIPT takes 3rd place in the ranking does not mean that somewhere else physics is taught better; after all, physics is not the only comparison criterion.
5.2 ) What are departments and what are faculties?
An applicant chooses a physics and technology school upon admission depending on his interests and score and submits documents for it. At the interview, the commission, having gotten to know the applicant, may recommend that he apply to another physics and technology school if it is more in line with the applicant’s interests and his chances of being accepted there are higher. In years 1-3, the school program is largely similar: a general fundamental education in physics and mathematics is given, an extended course in computer science is taught, and English is studied. In the 2-3 years, the student must choose one of the basic departments (department is a department of the university that prepares the student within a certain specialty) at his school. There are departments at institute and physical and technical schools, and any of them can be basic. The graduating basic departments are associated with basic institutes and companies, where students, starting from the 4th year, spend 3-5 days a week working on real projects.
5.3 ) Is there a correspondence course at MIPT?
No, all training at MIPT is full-time.
5.4 ) What is the size of the faculty scholarship?
MIPT has a social scholarship paid to disabled people who suffered as a result of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and not only. There is an additional social scholarship in the amount of 4,500 rubles, paid to students from low-income families. There is a regular academic scholarship in the amount of 4400 rubles, an increased one of 5500 rubles, all first-year students in the first semester receive a scholarship in the amount of 4400 rubles. There is also a scholarship from the Development Foundation in the amount of 13,000 rubles (approximately 20-25% of 1st-4th year students). Students who have studied well for several semesters and actively participated in scientific and social life can receive personalized scholarships: a scholarship from the MIPT Academic Council; Potanin scholarship; scholarship from the Moscow City Hall; scholarship from the Dolgoprudny city administration; scholarship from the President of Russia. Additional financial assistance is also paid to students who perform some socially useful activity.
5.4 ) Is it possible to earn extra money during junior years and how to do it so as not to harm your studies?
It's possible, but you shouldn't do it. In your junior year, you will have to spend all your free time studying. And by working part-time, you will spend this time working, so you will accumulate a lot of debt, and it will be almost impossible to pass the exam. Juniors should be studying, not working. The opportunity to earn extra money will appear in senior years. If you have financial problems, you need to apply for a social scholarship and contact the dean’s office for financial assistance. Good academic performance (no C grades) will allow you to receive an academic scholarship. In addition, 25% of 1st-3rd year students receive an additional personal scholarship in the amount of 13,000 rubles, and you can be among them if you study successfully.
5.6 ) Where do students and applicants eat?
Students usually eat in the student canteen, which is located directly opposite the FRTC dormitory. Also, almost every academic building has canteens where you can go during a break between classes. For those who prefer to cook on their own, there are two kitchens with electric stoves on each floor of the hostel.
5.7 ) What is there in the FRTC dormitory? How do students live?
There is a gym in the FRTC dormitory. There is a club where discos are held on holidays, and a reading room (botalka) where you can study in peace. On the ground floor there are two showers (male and female). There is a washing room (3 automatic washing machines), a vacuum cleaner for public use.
5.8 ) Is the hostel available for foreign citizens?
Yes, the hostel is provided to citizens of the Russian Federation and foreign citizens both for the period from submitting documents until the admissions committee makes a decision on enrollment, and for the duration of their studies.
5.9 ) I have a MIPT prospectus, it says: “At the disposal of MIPT students and employees: a 25-meter swimming pool, a chess club, a table tennis hall, a clay tennis court, two sports buildings with a games room and a bodybuilding room, a recovery center (sauna), a small gym, wrestling and boxing halls, a ski lodge, a football field, volleyball and basketball courts." Such an attractive image is created. But is all this really there, and what of this is provided to students for a fee, and is it expensive, and what is free?
Everything is really there and is provided by the university for free (with a student card).

Future professionals in the field of applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, biotechnology, computer science and other similar disciplines are trained here.
Story
This university was founded in the 50s of the last century. At its origins stood such famous scientists as Lev Landau, Pyotr Kapitsa and others. The basis of MIPT education is a unique system, which, according to the founders, was the most suitable for mastering certain sciences to the fullest.
Over the years of MIPT's existence, the university's faculties have produced Nobel laureates, astronauts, world-famous engineers and inventors. In 1995, it received the status of a state educational institution. And already at the beginning of 2000, the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences adopted a resolution that concerns the integration of education and science in the training of specialized personnel.
What is the Phystech system?
At MIPT, faculties of various fields have been working according to its principles for more than a decade. They were formulated by P.L. himself. Kapitsa, and they look like this:
- students must be trained in their specialty by researchers from basic institutes using modern technical equipment for training;
- work should be carried out with each student individually;
- every student is obliged to take direct part in scientific activities from the second or third year;
- After graduation, he must be able to use and know research methods in theory and practice, as well as have sufficient knowledge of engineering in order to solve certain technical problems.
Description of the MIPT educational system
University faculties have their own system, according to which a combination of such things as:
- fundamental education;
- classroom work without homework;
- engineering disciplines;
- attracting students to research work on the basis of industry institutions.
It is worth noting that the number of academicians and corresponding members from the Russian Academy of Sciences in the teaching staff of MIPT is much greater than in any other Russian university.
Information about the educational institution
When applying to MIPT, it is important to find out which faculties and specialties are most suitable for you or your child applicant. All of them are aimed at training specialists in various scientific and technical fields.
At the university there are various forms of education and preparatory courses, which take place at the correspondence school of physics and technology at MIPT. The faculties and specialties of the institution help to obtain a bachelor's or master's degree.
The university itself is located in the Moscow region, the city of Dolgoprudny.

Reviews from students and graduates
Like any other university, some of the students like MIPT, and some not so much. Many students managed to find good jobs after graduation, while others needed additional education. It all depends on the department, faculty, teachers. Many factors depend on the student himself, first of all, on his desire to learn.
However, if we move on to reviews on the Internet, then the key advantages of this university, its students and graduates name the opportunity to fundamentally study certain disciplines, as well as the fact that already during their studies they get the opportunity to work in promising areas of activity that will be in demand for more than a dozen years.
They also note the disadvantages of this educational institution. Thus, most of them believe that the program is overloaded with unnecessary disciplines. In addition, the level of teaching is far from ideal in all subjects. Especially when it comes to research methods.
Also, some believe that the program is not fully thought out and changes too often. Others are dissatisfied with the small number of sports grounds, but note that there are more than enough other sections and clubs.
Positive feedback includes student cohesion and mutual assistance, good preparation in English and other languages, and high quality teaching.
University graduates cannot always find a job strictly in their specialty, especially in the scientific field, finding it is not always easy. For those who graduated from an educational institution in areas related to information technology, it is much easier. If they are professionals, then they are in demand not only in Russia, but also abroad.
(Phystech or MIPT), whose faculties regularly produce a huge number of qualified specialists, is one of the most prestigious educational institutions that are engaged in research activities. Future professionals in the field of applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, biotechnology, computer science and other similar disciplines are trained here.
Story
This university was founded in the 50s of the last century. At its origins stood such famous scientists as Pyotr Kapitsa and others. The basis of MIPT education is a unique system, which, according to the founders, was the most suitable for mastering certain sciences to the fullest.
Over the years of MIPT's existence, the university's faculties have produced Nobel laureates, astronauts, world-famous engineers and inventors. In 1995, it received the status of a state educational institution. And already at the beginning of 2000, the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences adopted a resolution that concerns the integration of education and science in the training of specialized personnel.
What is the Phystech system?
At MIPT, faculties of various fields have been working according to its principles for more than a decade. They were formulated by P.L. himself. Kapitsa, and they look like this:
- students must be trained in their specialty by researchers from basic institutes using modern technical equipment for training;
- work should be carried out with each student individually;
- every student is obliged to take direct part in scientific activities from the second or third year;
- After graduation, he must be able to use and know research methods in theory and practice, as well as have sufficient knowledge of engineering in order to solve certain technical problems.
Description of the MIPT educational system
University faculties have their own system, according to which a combination of such things as:
- fundamental education;
- classroom work without homework;
- engineering disciplines;
- attracting students to research work on the basis of industry institutions.
It is worth noting that the number of academicians and corresponding members from the Russian Academy of Sciences in the teaching staff of MIPT is much greater than in any other Russian university.
Information about the educational institution
When applying to MIPT, it is important to find out which faculties and specialties are most suitable for you or your child applicant. All of them are aimed at training specialists in various scientific and technical fields.
