MIPT at a glance Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology(MIPT) also known as“Phystech” is a young, dynamic and compact research university primarily focused on natural sciences and engineering. It has 3,300 undergraduate and 2,250 graduate students. Phystech was founded in 1951 as a public educational institution. Having the main campus at Moscow suburb ?Dolgoprudny?, MIPT is able to provide undergraduate students comfortable social environment for hard working toward undergraduate degrees. PhD and master degree students are conducting their research on the base of so-called “sub-campuses”: 130 laboratories of the Russian Academy of Science and research divisions of leading industrial companies (like Yandex, Parallels, ABBYY etc.). Notable Alumni 1) In academia: a) 10 Nobel Prize winners; b) More than 100 members of the Russian National Academy of Science. 2) In industry: a) AlexanderAbramov – founder and chairman of ?EvrazHolding?, an international steel making and mining company; b) David Yang –founder of ABBYY, an international software company; c) Sergey Beloysov -founder of Parallels, ani nternational software company. Ranking Contemporaly world universities rankings are primarily based on citations and expert assessment reports. For a long time Phystech was closed for foreign visitors and the university never participated in international rankings. However, Phystech is regularly ranked as a leader among Russian research universities and as #2-#4 in all other national university rankings. Domestically Phystech is called, sometimes, as ?the Russian MIT?. Phystech is known, mainly in the states of the former USSR, due to its unique education - research model or “Phystech system”. This system stars from the very selective admission process and very intensive 4-year bachelor programs enabling graduate students continue educational studies in research laboratories of Russian Ministers and the Academy of Sciences. Graduate students’ research is conducted outside of the main Phystech campus, and, therefore, research publications ruttenly are not affiliated to Phystech at all. Such an external labled educational system hides MIPT from the academic radar (that was an advantage during the Cold War). Structure Phystech’s unique approach to education and training is supported by well-developed infrastructure that encompasses the main campus and 130 education-research units at major R&D and academic institutions across Moscow and the Moscow region. The university employs (part-time) best sholars to teach at these institutions, located not only in Moscow, but also at national scientific towns (Dubna, Troitsk, Chernogolovka, Fryazino, Pronvino, Puschino, Sarov, etc.). Phystech degrees 1) Bachelor’s degree programs: a)Year 1/2 - theoretical studies (100%); b) Year 3/4 - theory (70%) and practical (30%) based on research institute. 2) Master’s degree programs a) Year 1/2 – theory (50%) and practical (50%); b) Year 2/2 – practical (100%) at research institutes (partners of Phystech). 3) PhD degree programs (3-4years full-time study): a) Practical (70%) and theoretical (30%) research based on collection and analysis of data during the program’s duration. Phystech advantages: 1) Highest applicants score among 1,100 Russian Universities under Russia’s Unified State Exam (USE) – 92 of 100 (USE was introduced by the Ministry of Education to replace high school exited exams. The results of subject tests are used to enter most Russian universities). 2) During the last decade, approximately 1,500 Phystech alumni (25%) moved overseas to get PhD degrees at world-class universities such as MIT, Harvard and Caltech, among others.The Houston space center targets Phystech undergraduate students. 3) In 2009, following a Russian Government initiative to improve the education sector, Phystech obtained a status of the National Research Universityone of 29 universities who are considered to be leaders of the Russian education sector. 4) Fluency in English is typical for students and academic staff which make communication with international partners easy. 5) Phystech professors are ready to share many courses on the free of charge basis, and will allow them to be delivered at partner universities.

MIPT 一览莫斯科物理技术学院(MIPT)，简称“Phystech”，是一所年轻、充满活力且紧凑的研究型大学，主要专注于自然科学和工程领域。拥有 3300 名本科生和 2250 名研究生。Phystech 成立于 1951 年，最初是一所公立教育机构。MIPT 主校区位于莫斯科郊区“多尔戈普鲁德尼”，能够为本科生提供舒适的社交环境，帮助他们努力攻读本科学位。博士和硕士生以所谓的“分校区”为基础开展研究：俄罗斯科学院 130 个实验室以及领先工业公司的研究部门(如 Yandex、Parallels，艾比等)。知名校友 1)在学术界： a) 10 位诺贝尔奖得主; b)拥有 100 多名俄罗斯国家科学院院士。 2)工业界： a)亚历山大·阿布拉莫夫——国际钢铁制造与采矿公司“EvrazHolding”的创始人兼董事长; b) David Yang——国际软件公司 ABBYY 创始人; c) 谢尔盖·别洛伊索夫——Parallels 的创始人，一家国际软件公司。排名当代世界大学排名主要基于引用次数和专家评价报告。物理科技学院长期对外国访客关闭，大学也从未参与国际排名。然而，物理技术学院在俄罗斯研究型大学中常被评为领先者，并在所有其他国家大学排名中位列#2-#4。 在国内，Phystech 有时被称为“俄罗斯麻省理工学院”。物理技术主要在前苏联国家以其独特的教育方式——研究模式或“物理技术体系”而闻名。该体系以极具选择性、为期四年的本科课程为基础，使研究生能够在俄罗斯部长和科学院的研究实验室继续深造。研究生的研究通常在物理技术主校区之外进行，因此研究出版物通常与物理技术学院无关。这种外部标签的教育体系使 MIPT 在学术界的雷达之外隐藏了(这在冷战时期是一个优势)。结构 Phystech 独特的教育与培训方法得益于完善的基础设施，涵盖主校区以及莫斯科及莫斯科地区主要研发和学术机构的 130 个教育研究单位。大学聘请(兼职)优秀学生在这些机构任教，这些机构不仅位于莫斯科，还包括国家科学城镇(杜布纳、特罗伊茨克、切尔诺戈洛夫卡、弗里亚济诺、普罗尼诺、普什奇诺、萨罗夫等)。物理技术学位 1)学士学位项目： a)1/2 年级 - 理论学习(100%); b) 3/4 年级——理论(70%)和实践(30%)，基于研究所。 2)硕士学位项目 a) 第一/二年级——理论(50%)和实践(50%); b) 第二/二年级——在物理技术合作伙伴的研究机构(100%)实践。 3)博士学位项目(3-4年全日制学习)： a) 实践研究(70%)和理论研究(30%)基于项目期间数据的收集和分析。物理技术优势： 1)在俄罗斯统一国家考试(USE)下 1100 所俄罗斯大学中得分最高的——100 分中的 92 分(USE 由教育部引入，以取代高中毕业考试)。学科考试成绩用于大多数俄罗斯大学的录取。 2)在过去十年中，约有1500名物理技术校友(25%)前往海外，在麻省理工学院、哈佛大学和加州理工学院等世界级大学攻读博士学位。休斯顿航天中心的目标是物理工程学院的本科生。 3)2009 年，在俄罗斯政府推动教育领域的改进举措下，Phystech 获得了国家研究型大学的地位，成为被认为是俄罗斯教育领域领导者的 29 所大学之一。 4)学生和教职员工普遍具备流利英语能力，这使得与国际合作伙伴的沟通更加便捷。 5)物理技术教授准备免费分享多门课程，并允许在合作大学授课。
