Mgimo where. Moscow State Institute of International Relations (University) of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation (MGIMO)

In 2018, the MGIMO Faculty of International Relations celebrated its 75th anniversary. Over the past years, thousands of specialists have been trained who have contributed to the strengthening of our country's foreign policy positions in the international arena, to the development of social sciences and journalism. A highly professional teaching staff has been formed, constantly in creative search, capable of solving the most difficult tasks in the training and education of young specialists. Curricula are being improved in accordance with the new requirements for the training of qualified international specialists. New training courses are being actively introduced. Teachers of profiling, special and language departments create multimedia teaching aids, distance learning courses. Many monographs, course programs, as well as unique forms of conducting classes, the authors of which are faculty teachers, are adopted by other Russian universities. The practice of giving interdepartmental courses, as well as lectures and master classes conducted by the most famous Russian scientists - directors of research institutes, academicians and corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, as well as leading foreign professors, is becoming increasingly widespread.

Russia's accession to the Bologna process in 2003 gave a new impetus to the modernization of higher education. The Faculty of International Relations took an active part in the implementation of the principles of the Bologna Process at MGIMO. New modular and comprehensive programs were developed in all taught disciplines, a competency-based approach was actively introduced to form the professional universalism of an international specialist, and a rating system for assessing students' knowledge was introduced. The learning process was divided into two levels - undergraduate and graduate. Bachelor's degree allowed to create a fundamental basis for practice-oriented learning. Faculty specialists stood at the origins of master's programs in the areas of "foreign regional studies" and "international relations", and today the departments of the faculty are actively involved in the implementation of all specialized master's programs at MGIMO, including those in English. A clear confirmation of the high quality of education provided at the faculty is that, according to the results of many admissions committees, the average competition for admission to undergraduate and graduate programs in the direction of "International Relations" is one of the highest among all programs implemented at MGIMO.

The training of highly qualified international specialists requires a fundamental scientific basis. Employees and graduates of the faculty are actively engaged in research activities within the scientific division of the University - the Institute of International Studies. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the scientific potential of IMI is largely ensured through the efforts of the faculty staff. Thus, the Faculty of International Relations organically combines educational and research activities, implements in practice the unity of education, science and upbringing.

The departments of the faculty are fruitfully working research teams conducting research in the field of international relations, diplomacy, history and other humanitarian disciplines. The faculty has formed scientific schools that have received recognition both in Russia and abroad. In a certain sense, the faculty has become an integrated educational and scientific center, interacting with Russian and foreign universities, scientific institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The faculty of international relations is characterized by a creative atmosphere, pluralism of opinions, polyvariance of pedagogical and scientific concepts, deep awareness of the strategic tasks of development are natural. Organizational work and everyday life at the faculty are democratic, while at the same time, the best traditions that define the face of MGIMO are preserved.

From the moment of its creation up to the present day, our faculty has been the country's leading center for the training of highly qualified specialists in international affairs, a significant proportion of which are foreign students from both near and far abroad. Appearing in 1943 exactly one year before the institute itself was founded, the faculty of the Moscow Region for many decades not only served as the personification of MGIMO (it’s not for nothing that the name of the faculty is already in its abbreviation), but also contributes to the dynamic internal development of the university, because it is precisely the need for further specialization of the curriculum, taught at the Moscow Region, explains the emergence of such basic alma mater faculties as MP, MJ and FP.

The history of the faculty, the history of our departments are, first of all, the people who stood at the origins, and these are those who now continue and increase its glorious traditions, contribute with their work to the continuous improvement of the training of modern international professionals and to the implementation of promising tasks for the development of our University .

Dean of the Faculty
Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor Yu.A. BULATOV

In 1991, a graduate of the faculty, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor Yuri Alekseevich Bulatov, an orientalist and specialist in the field of national relations, was elected dean. Over the past two decades, the faculty has continued to improve - responding to the challenges of the changing times. First of all, it concerns the organization, equipment and provision of the educational process.

The faculty uses a variety of forms and methods of teaching - round tables, business games, situational seminars, including those involving highly qualified specialists from other universities and research centers. Much attention is paid to the independent work of students, which is the most important element in the preparation of a graduate of the Moscow Region.

The faculty provides training in two areas - regional studies and international relations. Its structure includes 16 departments, including 7 socio-political and special, 8 language, as well as the department of physical education. More than 350 teachers work at the faculty departments. Two-thirds of them have an academic degree, 78 are doctors of science.

Educational work according to the plans of the faculty, in addition to general university (general education) departments, is carried out by profiling and special departments. The main departments of the faculty include the Department of International Relations and Foreign Policy of Russia and the Department of Diplomacy, as well as the Department of Applied Analysis of International Problems. Regional studies, including history, economics and political systems of the countries studied, as well as countries of the region, are provided by special departments of the faculty: the Department of History and Politics of Europe and America, the Department of Oriental Studies, the Department of World and National History, the Department of World Economy.

Teachers of the language departments are highly qualified specialists with experience in practical work as interpreters, simultaneous interpreters and interpreters at high-level negotiations. Foreign languages are taught at the faculty by the following departments:

English No. 1;
German language;
languages of the Nordic and Baltic countries;
languages of the countries of Central and South-Eastern Europe.

The teaching of the languages of the peoples of Asia and Africa at all faculties of the institute is carried out by the departments:

languages of the countries of the Near and Middle East;
Indo-Iranian and African languages;
Chinese, Vietnamese, Lao and Thai;
Japanese, Korean, Mongolian and Indonesian.

Fluency in the main language studied and mastery of a second foreign language is achieved as a result of regular classes of 6-10 hours a week for 4-6 years of study. Although undergraduate graduates do not receive diplomas of professional translators or linguists, however, in terms of the level of foreign language proficiency in most cases, they not only are not inferior to graduates of linguistic faculties, but also surpass them, especially when it comes to complex political negotiations, public speaking in the host country, communication with representatives of the media. At the same time, many undergraduate graduates continue their studies at the MGIMO linguistic master's program, which allows them to gain knowledge that corresponds to the qualifications of top-level professional translators.

The prospects for the work of the faculty are largely associated with an increase in the number of highly qualified teachers in special departments, as well as with the renewal of the teaching staff by attracting young specialists to scientific and pedagogical activities. The scientific growth of young personnel is associated with research activities, with the ability to publish research results in the form of not only articles, but also monographs, textbooks.

A distinctive feature of studying at the faculty is the practical orientation of the education received. An obligatory element of the senior course curriculum is the "Diplomatic Module" - a lecture course conducted by the leadership of the Russian Foreign Ministry for a more detailed acquaintance with the structure of the Ministry and the specifics of work in all areas of the department's activities. For many years, students of the Moscow Region have been doing introductory and pre-graduation internships at the Russian Foreign Ministry, the Presidential Administration, the Government Office, the State Duma, the Ministry of Economic Development, major domestic companies, leading media outlets, etc. Every year, more than 100 students have the opportunity to gain their first professional experience during undergraduate internships at Russian Embassies and Trade Missions around the world, as well as at the secretariats of major international organizations (primarily the UN system).

An integral part of the educational process at the faculty is the maintenance of extracurricular student activity. In addition to wide participation in the sports and cultural life of the institute, as well as volunteer movements organized on the basis of MGIMO, students of the Moscow Region are actively involved in such large-scale projects as the Moscow International Model UN named after Vitaly Churkin (MIMUN) and the A.G. Karlov Diplomatic Club.

The annual Model UN is an exciting role-playing game in which students and high school students who come to MGIMO from all over the world reproduce the work of the UN bodies on behalf of the official representatives of the participating countries in all 5 languages of the organization. The ability to defend the official position of the represented country, including in a foreign language, as well as to find consensus for the adoption of a resolution on a specific issue are necessary skills for the future professional activities of students. Diplomatic Club. A.G. Karlova, functioning at the Department of Diplomacy, is not only a community of those who plan to link their fate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but also a platform for scientific and creative creativity, uniting the most talented, creative and initiative students of all ages and faculties. Thematic master classes, "Diplomatic Olympiads" and the scientific-practical competition "Diplomat's Briefing" have long become the "calling card" of the main club of the Faculty of the Ministry of Defense, which is part of the Scientific Student Society of MGIMO - an inter-faculty association of scientific clubs of the institute.

Upon graduation from the faculty, there are ample opportunities for a diplomatic, research and teaching career. Thanks to universal training, graduates of the faculty successfully study at economic, political science, legal master's programs at MGIMO and other Russian universities, as well as at prestigious foreign educational institutions. Under the leading professional socio-political and language departments of the faculty, postgraduate studies with full-time education work, there is also the possibility of competition. Graduates also enter postgraduate studies at the leading departments of other faculties of MGIMO, defend candidate and doctoral dissertations in historical, political, economic, legal and philological sciences, thereby replenishing the team of highly qualified specialists in international relations at MGIMO.

The Faculty of International Relations is the head unit of MGIMO in the training of international specialists for the Russian Foreign Ministry and its foreign agencies. Its graduates make up the main backbone of young specialists who are annually recruited on a competitive basis to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They also work in various government agencies, in international, public and political organizations, in private firms and banks.

In the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, graduates of the faculty hold responsible leadership positions: deputy ministers of foreign affairs, directors of departments, Ambassadors Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary in many countries of the world, representatives of Russia in international organizations. Foreign Minister Sergei Viktorovich Lavrov also graduated from the Faculty of International Relations.

The faculty is also the forge of MGIMO "commanding staff". In addition to the Rector, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences A.V. Torkunov, among his graduates are Vice-Rector for Master's and International Programs A.A. personnel policy V.M.Morozov, dean of the faculty Yu.A.Bulatov and many other heads of departments and departments of the institute. The fame of the faculty has long crossed the borders of our Motherland. Currently, about 200 foreign students from 42 countries are studying at the faculty, including from Vietnam, Germany, Greece, Egypt, Israel, Indonesia, Spain, Cyprus, Libya, the Republic of Korea, Peru, Thailand, Turkey, Syria, the USA, and as well as CIS countries.

International cooperation of the faculty is carried out within the framework of the general programs of MGIMO. In addition, the faculty independently expands ties with universities and youth organizations in countries near and far abroad. The main forms of cooperation are scientific internships for teachers and their participation in international conferences, as well as language internships for students in foreign universities.

MGIMO is one of the country's oldest university centers for training international specialists. October 14, 1944 is considered to be the date of foundation of the university, when the Council of People's Commissars transformed the International Faculty of Lomonosov Moscow State University, created a year earlier, into an independent institute. The first enrollment at MGIMO was 200 students. Since 1946, students from foreign countries began to be sent to study at MGIMO. In the early years, there were three faculties at the university: international, economic and legal. In 1954, the eastern branch was opened at MGIMO. This happened as a result of a merger with one of the oldest Russian universities - the Moscow Institute of Oriental Studies, the successor to the Lazarev School, established in 1815. The famous Lazarev Library, which had no equal in terms of the composition of Oriental literature in Moscow, also went to MGIMO.

In 1958, the Foreign Trade Institute of the Ministry of Foreign Trade of the USSR, established in 1934 in Leningrad and then transferred to Moscow, joined MGIMO. As a result, the Faculty of Economics was significantly expanded, its focus on training specialists for foreign trade and foreign economic activity increased. In 1969, the Faculty of International Law and the Faculty of International Journalism were established.

In 1991, the Faculty of International Business and Business Administration was opened at the Institute, and in 1998 the Faculty of Political Science was established.

Since 1994, by the decision of the Government of Russia, the University has been entrusted with training specialists in the field of state and municipal administration from among persons with higher professional education working in government bodies. These training programs are implemented by a new structural unit of the university - the International Institute of Management.

In February 2000, at the initiative of Russia's largest oil, gas and energy companies, the International Institute for Energy Policy and Diplomacy was established within the structure of MGIMO. The purpose of the Institute was to train personnel for the development of international energy cooperation.

In 1994 the institute received the status of a university.

October 14, 1944, when the International Faculty of Lomonosov Moscow State University, established a year earlier, is considered to be the date of MGIMO foundation, was transformed into an independent institute. The first enrollment at MGIMO was 200 students. Since 1946, students from foreign countries began to be sent to study at MGIMO.

In 1948, two faculties were formed - Historical and International and International Law. A year later, the Faculty of Economics was created (since 1950 - International Economics). In the same year, a journalism faculty and a faculty of simultaneous interpreters were opened at the Faculty of History and International Affairs. In 1954, the Moscow Institute of Oriental Studies was included in MGIMO, the progenitor of which, in turn, was the Lazarev School of Oriental Languages (founded in 1815). As a result, the range of countries studied was significantly expanded, the study of two foreign languages was introduced in all specialties of MGIMO. The former three faculties also underwent reorganization, the result of their merger was the creation of two basic faculties - Western and Eastern.

In 1958, the Foreign Trade Institute of the Ministry of Foreign Trade of the USSR, established in 1934 in Leningrad and then transferred to Moscow, joined MGIMO. As a result, the Faculty of Economics was significantly expanded, its focus on training specialists for foreign trade and foreign economic activity increased. In 1959, a reorganization took place again. The Faculties of International Relations and International Economic Relations were opened, in 1969 - the Faculty of International Journalism and the Faculty of International Law.

In 1992, the Faculty of International Business and Business Administration was opened at MGIMO.

In 1994, MGIMO received the status of a university and introduced a two-stage system of education "bachelor - master". In the same year, by decision of the Government of Russia, the University was entrusted with training specialists in the field of state and municipal administration from among persons with higher professional education working in government bodies. These training programs were implemented by a new structural unit of the university at that time - the International Institute of Management.

In 1998, the Faculty of Political Science was established, and in 2000, the International Institute for Energy Policy and Diplomacy. In 2011, the Faculty of Applied Economics and Commerce was founded.

On March 6, 2016, the Odintsovo branch of MGIMO was officially opened. The Gorchakovsky Lyceum operates on the basis of the Branch (grades 8-11 in two training profiles - social and humanitarian and socio-economic).

In May 2017, the Faculty of Administration and Politics was created as a result of the merger of the Faculties of Public Administration and Political Science.
In 2017, by order of the Russian Government, MGIMO received the right to independently award Ph.D. and Ph.D. degrees, as well as to create dissertation councils and establish their powers.

On March 25, the Open Doors Day of the Faculty of International Relations took place. Dean Y. Bulatov spoke about his faculty.

Yuri Alekseevich, Faculty of International Relations is a legend, a hallmark of MGIMO. He is widely known in Russia and all over the world. And, of course, the faculty has its own traditions. What are they?

First of all, I would like to note that the creation of our faculty was the starting point on the way to the formation of MGIMO. The faculty bears the name of the university, and traditions were laid down already during the studies of its first graduates. Our traditions are, first of all, a high level of training of international specialists, the first graduation of which took place in 1948. We are proud of the unique teaching staff and a solid training program developed over the years, which consists in the optimal combination of theoretical and applied disciplines. The Faculty of International Relations of MGIMO is a kind of "forge of personnel" of the Russian Foreign Ministry. We train specialists for work in foreign institutions and the central office of the Russian Foreign Ministry, as well as for other structures - public and private, one way or another connected with foreign policy and international activities.

The faculty has a unique composition of teachers of foreign languages. In total, more than 50 foreign languages are taught at the faculty, including rare European and Oriental ones. We are recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the university with the largest number of state foreign languages taught. Knowledge of rare foreign languages allows a graduate of the faculty to become a unique specialist in Europe, America, Asia and Africa not only in Russia but also abroad.

There are two directions at the faculty - "Foreign Regional Studies" and "International Relations". What is the difference between the programs? How can an applicant choose a program?

Previously, the faculty was divided into two parts (East-West). Now there are also two departments: "Diplomacy and Politics of Foreign Countries" and "International Relations" (in the areas of "Foreign Regional Studies" and "International Relations", respectively). This is due to the structure that exists in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and provides for the division into regional and functional departments.

The program of the department "Diplomacy and Politics of Foreign Countries" in the direction "Foreign Regional Studies" is traditional for us, it has existed since 1943. Therefore, it is run-in, is in constant motion and improved. Most of the graduates of this particular program go to work at the Russian Foreign Ministry, where they are in high demand, as students come with knowledge of rare languages. The faculty trains international specialists with knowledge of European, Oriental and African languages with the obligatory study of English.

The department of international relations is relatively small. Not so long ago it was also called experimental. Now it has already proved its viability. Here we train generalists in international relations - the program does not include disciplines related to the study of history, economics, law and foreign policy of any one country or region. The broader aspects of international relations are taught here. These are, first of all, subsystems of East-West international relations. Not only the diplomacy of Russia is being studied, which is mandatory, but also the diplomacy of foreign states. Much attention is paid to the study of the activities of international organizations. That is, we are talking about the training of specialists in international affairs with a wide profile for work both in the system of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and in other public, private and non-governmental structures.

Since September 2011, another department has been operating at the faculty - a joint program of the Faculty of International Relations and the International Institute of Energy Policy and Diplomacy. This program is based on the traditional courses of the faculty, as well as specialized courses of the MIEP. This summer will see the first edition of MIEP on International Relations.

That is, the program "Foreign Regional Studies" is more suitable for those students who are oriented towards a further career in the Russian Foreign Ministry?

In many ways, this is true. You see, many students, when entering the faculty, ask themselves where it is better to apply - to the department "Diplomacy and Politics of Foreign Countries" or to "International Relations"? Preference is given initially to "International Relations". This is primarily due to the fact that they study "international" languages - English, French, German. In the direction of "foreign regional studies", as a rule, rare languages are studied, and this is not for everyone. Students are focused on in-depth study of a particular region and country. But when it comes to applying for a job at the Foreign Ministry, international students with a traditional set of European languages face more competition, because the choice is between them and students from other faculties and institutes. It is much easier for regional scientists in this respect. Therefore, those who want to devote themselves to work in the diplomatic field learn rare languages and improve themselves in the study of the chosen region. Graduates of the faculty of the Ministry of Defense with knowledge of rare languages, of a particular country and region, are most in demand for work in the Russian Foreign Ministry.

At admission, do your students already know what they want in terms of career and achievements?

They are highly motivated to become international specialists. The learning process itself is quite difficult. But when there is interest, there is no difficulty. The student must have a desire to learn, and we do everything necessary to interest him.

The faculty provides serious language training for students. How do students improve their knowledge outside the walls of the institute?

Firstly, students go on internships, during which they polish their knowledge. It is important to note that internships during studies at the Faculty involve trips to the region and the countries studied several times. Usually for three months, six months, a year.

Secondly, participation in events held by the faculty and MGIMO as a whole. We are not talking only about meetings with officials, although this form of work is an integral part of the training of international specialists. Much attention is paid to holding language evenings. For example, Arabic, Turkish, Greek evenings are held at the faculty, Spanish and Italian theaters have been created, scientific student clubs and communities are active. All this is important and necessary, because it allows you to get acquainted with the modern cultural life of the country under study and its literature. As a result, we get an active, eventful student life. Thus, our students and in an informal setting master the course "Linguistics and Regional Studies". At the same time, this is another form of immersion in the future profession. Children usually enjoy participating in these activities.

Probably, there are many bright personalities at the Faculty?

Last year our University celebrated its 70th anniversary. Assessing the stages of a long journey, I would like to emphasize that we have always had bright personalities, and first of all, this is our golden fund - the faculty of MGIMO. Well-known scientists and unique specialists teach at our faculty, including diplomats with the rank of ambassadors extraordinary and plenipotentiary of Russia, honored workers of science of the Russian Federation, historians, country experts, economists, linguists.

However, bright personalities are brought up from a young age. The essence of the problem lies in the search for talented students - how to select and identify a potentially "bright" personality capable of withstanding a difficult study at the faculty. We use the opportunities and resources available to us. The system of pre-university training is actively operating at the faculty. We also have Olympiads - for example, the History Olympiad. Its prize-winners and winners receive the highest score in this discipline upon admission to MGIMO. In 2014, according to the results of the Unified State Examination, young men and women were enrolled at the Faculty of the Ministry of Defense on a budgetary basis, having an average score in history - 93.52, in a foreign language - 93.66, in Russian - 95.95. Those enrolled under the contract had the following USE results: history - 74.05, foreign language - 82.18, Russian language - 82.72.

I would say that our bright personalities from among the applicants are talents of an all-Russian scale. In 2014 in Russia, 72 people became winners of the All-Russian Olympiad in History and, what is important for us, 21 of them entered MGIMO, with the majority choosing the Faculty of International Relations. Each of them is a bright personality, and together they form a "constellation". Worried, however, often weak training in languages. The guys have to work hard, already being students. This process is not always painless. But the most important thing is not only to enter the university, but also to become a good specialist in the chosen field, not to make a mistake in the chosen profession.

For our part, we actively support and encourage motivated and talented students. Excellent students receive high scholarships, including nominal scholarships of the President of Russia, the Government of the Russian Federation, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia, the Mayor's Office of Moscow, nominal scholarships of famous Russian scientists, the V. Potanin Charitable Foundation, and a number of leading Russian banks. Our faculty awards winners of translation competitions, student competitions, authors of the best scientific reports at student conferences. The best students of the faculty have the opportunity to take a summer introductory and undergraduate practice at the central office of the Russian Foreign Ministry. Graduation students also got the opportunity to do pre-graduation internships at the Administration of the President of Russia.

How do you see the development of the faculty?

The main goal of the faculty and MGIMO as a whole is to become a world model in the training of international specialists. And we have grounds for realizing such a lofty goal. If you look at the staff of the UN staff, you will see that most of the employees of this international structure from the countries of Central and South-Eastern Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa form the backbone of the graduates of the Faculty of International Relations and MGIMO as a whole.

Faculty History

On August 31, 1943, the Soviet government decided to create a faculty of international relations at Moscow State University with a four-year study period and the admission of 200 first-year students, mostly from among males.

On October 14, 1944, on the basis of this faculty, it was established with admission to the 1st course of 250 people. In September 1945, 400 people became first-year students. In February 1947, a decision was made on a five-year term of study.

For more than half a century, in the course of numerous transformations, restructurings, reforms and reorganizations at MGIMO, when some faculties were abolished and new divisions were created, the Faculty of International Relations continued not only to exist, but also to develop: it included entire faculties, even universities (thus was with the Institute of Oriental Studies); departments and students were separated to create other structures (in particular, when creating the international law faculty in the city, the faculty of international journalism in the city, the faculty of political science in the city).

The first reorganization of the faculty took place in 1954, when a resolution of the Council of Ministers was adopted on the merger of MGIMO and the Institute of Oriental Studies in order to "streamline the training of specialists" in international relations, philology and the history of countries of the foreign East. The existing three faculties - MO, MP and MEO - were transformed into two - Western and Eastern. Subsequently, several reorganizations of the university were carried out, as a result of which the structure of the organization took on a modern look.
