MIREA – Russian Technological University

MIREA — Russian Technological University (RTU MIREA) is The Federal State Budget Educational Institution of Higher Education «MIREA — Russian Technological University» (RTU MIREA). It is a higher educational institution in Moscow, Russia, which is an educational, research and innovation complex. It was ranked # 1,960 globally in 2023 by US News & World Report.

RTU MIREA includes 8 institutes, 160 departments, 38 research units, and more than 50 specialized departments. The university provides training in 112 areas and specialties (bachelor's, specialist's, master's, postgraduate studies) in IT, cyber security, electronics, radio engineering, robotics, chemistry, biotechnology, etc. The university also provides an opportunity to receive additional education. Stanislav Alekseevich Kudzh, Doctor of Technical Sciences is Rector of RTU MIREA.

The university employs over 2,500 people as teaching staff (77% have an academic degree), including 21 academicians and corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, more than 280 members of other academies, Russian and international scientific societies, as well as more than 400 doctors of sciences and more than 1,300 candidates of sciences.

A number of lectures and training courses are delivered by visiting foreign professors. Practicing designers, chief engineers and general directors of partner enterprises act as lecturers and trainers at the specialized departments for students (starting from the 3rd year).[citation needed]

Every year the university is allocated 4,367 budgetary places and about 26,000 students are currently studying here. About 1,200 international students from 80 countries of the world study at the Institute of International Education of RTU MIREA. Upon graduation, a diploma is issued recognized both in the Russian Federation and abroad.

The history of RTU MIREA begins on May 28, 1947 when the Correspondence Institute for Advanced Training of Engineering and Technical Workers of the Ministry of Power Plants and Electrical Industry of the USSR was transformed into the All-Union Correspondence Power Engineering Institute for the Training and Improvement of Engineers (VZEI). It had branches in Leningrad, Kiev, Baku, Tashkent, Sverdlovsk, and Novosibirsk. Later, on the basis of these branches and training and consulting centers, a number of technical universities were opened in Omsk, Kemerovo, Kirov and other cities of the USSR.

The university got the name of the Moscow Institute of Radio Engineering, Electronics and Automation (MIREA) on June 30, 1967. The training of engineering personnel for the science-intensive industries of the electronic and radio industry, mechanical engineering and instrument making, automation equipment and control systems started in a full-time mode, not just by correspondence. Nikolai Nikolayevich Evtikhiev was elected Rector of MIREA.

In 1993, MIREA was granted the status of a technical university. Between 1998 and 2013, Alexander Sergeevich Sigov, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, was Rector of MSTU MIREA, and later, since 2013, he has been president of the university.
