Literally today I saw in public a leak about MEPhI from another freshman: well, on the Internet, someone is always wrong.
I myself graduated from this university and, frankly, I do not regret it.
What is good in junior courses:
- The first year is really hard. Physics with matan are present, and are present in large numbers. Matan is read according to a program close to the Mekhmat of Moscow State University; (absolutely the entire department of higher mathematics is from there).
- Engineering items. Inzhgraf is, the level is far from Bauman, and that's good. It is enough knowledge to read the drawing and draw a sketch for installation. At one time, I was very pleased with the details of machines and electrical engineering, which together thinned out the numerical strength, but taught me to quickly understand incomprehensible and complex things.
- The teachers. The teachers (and the dean's office) are very fond of gesticulating and destroying morally unstable students in every possible way. For which many thanks to them! This is what makes mythists mythists. The first-year students will thank the evil girls from the secretariat three more times, and the terrible physics teacher who sent them to retake for an undrawn vector over speed, when after university they come to work and face a situation that is classic for our country "Here's your task to give birth to a reactor cooling system from a fire extinguisher and four sprigs of lilacs. Coordinate the project with the barmaid Aunt Zina. Deadline - yesterday. " When they stubbornly try to crush you, you involuntarily begin to learn to prove that you are still something of yourself.
- Dorms. Decent apartment-type dorms in fifteen minutes on foot.
What is bad in junior courses:
- English. Everything is difficult with languages for techies at MEPhI. Although the guys from international relations manage to learn three languages. I don't know, maybe it was just me that was so bad.
What is good in scary courses:
- Industry. At MEPhI, a lot is tied to Rosatom. The second, after stress resistance, an important feature of a mythist is that a bunch of contacts from people from the industry are recruited by the release. Starting with the fact that all employees of specialized departments are engaged in some kind of real science, and the customer of this science is Rosatom. Ending with the fact that in many departments part-time people work and teach at the level up to the general director of one of the daughters of Rosatom. Every more or less normal student collects a pile of business cards for his diploma from his uncles and aunts, who are hypothetically ready and, most importantly, can take him to their department. I myself saw how students, during a break in the defense of diplomas or some kind of conference, drove up to invited representatives of enterprises and agreed on interviews (for schoolchildren who read, I will explain: you can get a job by sending a resume to the personnel department of an enterprise, but this is magic). Agree, not every university has such a frequent opportunity to try your luck finding a job without leaving the cash register.
Same here, but on the other side. Proximity to the industry gives a great opportunity to organize hotel lists with one call: during the study, they managed to visit a working nuclear power plant, look at experimental tokamaks and touch the historical first reactors with their hands. There would only be a wish.
- The science. She is. With a strong desire, you can well join the scientific team and have a lot of experience and, in some places, even money. According to the latest trends in scientometrics, it is customary to measure this whole thing by the number of publications in international journals from the list of the same Scopus. I, who worked in a small laboratory at the department, had four such articles for my diploma. That is, the diploma was written at once and simply by merging them all into one document. And I wasn't even ashamed to defend myself.
- Stipuhi. In my time they were huge, by student standards. Starting from ordinary academic ones, ending with nominal presidential, government, Rosatom, etc. At MEPhI, their quotas are large, and a large number of people received them. In the best of times, in the amount of 30+ thousand a month came out. It allowed me to do science for my own pleasure after steam, and not work as a courier.
What is bad in senior courses:
- The reactor is standing. All first-year students shout at the top of their lungs that "there is a Reactor at MEPhI," and it has been in its eighth year of endless modernization and relicensing. And no one really wants to deal with them. Sadly.
- Not the most adequate schedule. Occurs in almost all departments. Pairs are scattered for all days, one per day and in the middle of the day. One way or another, the majority finds a job in their specialty by the last courses and tries to work part-time and at the same time write a diploma, and it’s not so easy to break away from work in serious offices for a few hours. The problem can be solved by agreement with teachers, but always rests on disagreements in numerous groups.
I summarize. Despite the disadvantages in the face of the bureaucratic system of the institute, insufficient "customer focus", the pursuit of numbers and ratings, MEPhI is still a place where people are taught to create new, complex and physically beautiful technologies, while this place is quickly integrating into the world system education.
And for those who believe that a good university should teach you to remember everything that is written in smart books, I advise you to reconsider your views on education in general.
For new recruits: passing scores are rising mercilessly. The Olympics are everything. October, by the way, is the month of the mythical Olympiads. Go ahead.

Until the 1990s, this university, worthy in all respects, trained personnel for nuclear research, now the work is being carried out under the auspices of Rosatom. Faculties of Theoretical and Experimental Physics, Chemical Physics and others show themselves well. There are enthusiastic reviews about MEPhI teachers, no less good - about the powerful theoretical and technical training of students.
Road to scientists
The Institute of Atomic Energy is located in Obninsk. For more than fifty years, he has trained many thousands of specialists for this industry both in Russia and abroad. The range of areas of study is very wide: atomic physics, cybernetics, mathematical modeling, high performance computing, materials science, management, finance, and so on. Other branches of MEPhI are no less interesting.
Software engineering
Reviews about the Faculty of Cybersecurity are also quite numerous, which will greatly help applicants who have chosen the field of computer technology, as well as programming and, of course, information security. It must be admitted that this faculty, judging by the reviews, does not surpass similar faculties of other universities, although the MEPhI brand itself plays an attractive role.
The faculty has interesting specializations, among which is the "K" sector, which is responsible for training specialists in control systems for critical facilities. There are four directions in this sector, which are studied at departments 28, 17, 33, 68 and 22. One of the most interesting specializations of MEPhI is software engineering. Reviews about the 22nd department, which graduates bachelors of this specialty, are generally good.
IFEB
Since 2006, there has been the Institute for Financial and Economic Security, created by Rosfinmonitoring to counter the legalization of criminal proceeds and the financing of terrorists. The training of specialists in primary education takes place on the basis of MEPhI.
Economic security (reviews about this specialty are few for many reasons) requires from students not only extensive and stable basic knowledge. They are practiced in the central office and the MRU, in the national financial intelligence offices of some EAR states.
MEPhI manages to take into account the specifics and features of the interaction of all specialties of this unit, while providing a single standard for training. Graduates work both in Rosfinmonitoring and in the FSB of Russia, as well as in the prosecutor's office and the Investigative Committee, in the apparatus of leading banks, in state corporations and IT companies.
IMO
A number of federal ministries initiated the creation of the Institute of International Relations in 1999 on the basis of MEPhI. International relations, reviews lose only MGIMO (and then, they say, according to the established tradition), - a popular direction. Graduates are engaged in political and social aspects of international cooperation in science, engineering and technology, analysis of the activities of international associations and organizations, support of international projects in high technologies, competitive and financial and economic analysis of international markets for high technology products.
Faculty of Humanities
It existed until 2009, after which it was renamed the Faculty of Management and Economics of High Technologies MEPhI. Economics, reviews of which are quite diverse, is the main subject in the preparation of a specialist in international relations, since he will be engaged in accounting, financial management, jurisprudence, economic and financial security.
At MEPhI, at the faculty "U", according to students, international studies are prepared better than in all other universities, except for MGIMO. You can look at the statistics, the spread of acts of cooperation, ratings. MEPhI is ahead of even the aforementioned university in many respects. A big plus is that few people look at ratings, and it is more realistic to enter International Relations at MEPhI than at MGIMO, even on a budgetary basis.
Correspondence school
MEPhI, reviews of which are so numerous, is growing with talented students due to the existence of a correspondence school for more than forty years, where students from the sixth to the eleventh grade receive distance lessons and study courses in physics, mathematics, chemistry and other subjects, and now they are preparing for the exam.
Benefits and assignments are sent by parcels, then the teachers communicate with the children by mail - electronic or paper, the student chooses here. Thus, the services of the Correspondence School can be used by any student, no matter where he lives.
Hostel and hotel
There is no better student shelter than MEPhI. The hostel, reviews of which filled the student forums, is a quarter of an hour on foot from the place of study - very convenient. Two 24-storey towers - two buildings, plus two 5-storey ones. 3,000 people can live in skyscrapers, and 500 more can live in them. On the first floors there are buffets and cookery, gyms, and payphones. Throughout the territory - the Internet, radio and television, security and video surveillance, automated fire protection. There is something for MEPhI students to love the hostel, they write enthusiastic reviews. Here they live comfortably. Therefore, time is not wasted on everyday problems, it is given to study.
Dormitories - apartment type, where each apartment is equipped with all kinds of furniture for storing things, rest, work, there are refrigerators and electric stoves in the kitchens, spacious bathrooms and toilets, glazed balconies. On the territory of this entire complex, for the convenience of students, there are cash desks, a passport office, and accounting.
"Atomic Project"
The Special Committee established on August 20, 1945 under the Council of People's Commissars, which was entrusted with coordinating all work on the use of intra-atomic energy of uranium, had a significant impact on the fate of MMI. The committee was headed by Deputy Chairman of the SNK L.P. Beria. And at the same time, for the direct management of the work of all organizations for the use of uranium energy, the First Main Directorate was created, headed by an outstanding organizer of industry and a talented engineer, Colonel General B.L. Vannikov. On August 30, 1945, the Moscow Mechanical Institute was transferred to the jurisdiction of this department. And just two weeks later, in the protocol No. 4 of the meeting of the Special Committee, signed by Beria, the wording “On the organization at the Moscow Mechanical Institute of a faculty for the training of physicists” appeared.
On September 20, 1945, the Decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR No. 2386627ss, signed by Stalin, "On the organization of the Faculty of Engineering Physics at the Moscow Mechanical Institute" was issued. This was the starting point for the creation of the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute.
The Faculty of Fine Mechanics was reorganized into the Faculty of Engineering and Physics for the training of nuclear industry specialists. From the very beginning, during the creation of this faculty, the increased attention of the government was paid to it. The contingent of students was increased to seven hundred people, new departments for the training of physicists were created: the Department of Atomic Physics, the Department of Theoretical Physics, the Department of Nuclear Physics, the Department of Applied Nuclear Physics and the Department of Precision Mechanics.
On January 26, 1946, by order of the institute, an outstanding scientist, full member of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences Alexander Ilyich Leipunsky was appointed dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Physics.
In 1946, the Department of Metal Physics, the Department of Special Mathematics, the Department of Special Chemistry and Metallurgy appeared at MMI. According to the idea of the founders of this faculty, future graduates had to have a university level of education in physics and mathematics, and, in addition, have engineering skills. In essence, the founding fathers conceived the training of a new type of specialists, specialists of a new generation who have a high level of knowledge and are able to create new technology.
First Teachers
A number of departments were transferred to the Moscow Mechanical Institute from other institutes, in particular, from Moscow State University, Moscow State Technical University. E. Bauman, MPEI. For example, one of the MEPhI rectors, Viktor Mikhailovich Kolobashkin, completed his first year at Moscow Higher Technical School, and then he, along with the whole group, was transferred to MMI. Among the teachers at that time were unique specialists who made up the flower of Soviet science in the post-war years, future Nobel Prize winners I. E. Tamm, A. D. Sakharov, N. N. Semyonov, I. M. Frank, P. A. Cherenkov, N. G. Basov, famous scientists, academicians I.V. Kurchatov, I.V. Obreimov, Ya. B. Zeldovich, I. Ya. Pomeranchuk, M. A. Leontovich, A. N. Tikhonov, A. B. Migdal, G. S. Landsberg, B. P. Zhukov, S. A. Khristianovich, I. K. Kikoin. Many of them can be seen in the portrait gallery in the main building.
MEPhI
Over time, the process of gradual transfer of mechanical specialties to other institutions began, and the expansion of engineering and physical specialties. And in 1953, the institute acquired its current name MEPhI, all of whose faculties became largely focused on training specialists in nuclear power engineering and the defense industry.
In 1952, according to the Decree of the Government of the USSR, the first four branches of MEPhI were created in closed cities (now Ozersk, Novouralsk, Lesnoy in the Urals and Sarov) to train personnel on the ground. Subsequently, branches of MEPhI were created in Obninsk, Snezhinsk and Trekhgorny. MEPhI trained personnel for the nuclear industry in a wide range of specializations, and eventually became a truly elite university and gained worldwide fame.
Nuclear University
A new stage in the development of the university began in 2008, when MEPhI became one of the first two national research universities and was renamed the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI.
Today, the university firmly holds a leading position in the training of specialists of the highest level, combining the principles of synthesis of education and scientific research, laid down 75 years ago.
