M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University
M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University (Russian: Московский государственный университет имени М. В. Ломоносова, Moskóvskiy gosudárstvennyy universitét ímeni M. V. Lomonósova), previously known as Lomonosov University or MSU (Russian: университет Ломоносова, Universitét Lomonósova; Russian: МГУ, MGU), is the largest university in Russia. Founded in 1755, it also claims to be the oldest university in Russia and to have the tallest educational building in the world. As of 2004, the university has some 4,000 staff teaching 36,000 students and 7,000 postgraduates. Its current rector is Viktor Sadovnichiy. In 1940, the university was renamed in honor of its founder, Mikhail Lomonosov.
Since 1953, most of the university's faculties have been situated on Sparrow Hills, in the southwest of Moscow. Considered to be the outskirts of Moscow at the time of its building, due to the subsequent expansion of the city today the main building is about half-way between the centre of Moscow at the Kremlin and the city's limits.
The university includes a number of faculty buildings located near Manege Square in the centre of Moscow and a number of campuses abroad in Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
The university is commonly regarded as Russia's most prestigious university and has high entry requirements for its prospective students. The university generally performs well in international higher education studies and, in 2008, the university was ranked 70th according to the Academic Ranking of World Universities, 155th according to Times Higher Education in 2009. and 44th according to Human Resources & Labor Review published in Chasecareer Network A few narrowly specialized Moscow colleges, including MIPT (physics) and MGIMO (international relationships), were split off of MSU at one time or another and have since established strong reputations of their own, arguably even surpassing their parent in terms of prestige and quality of education.
