MGIMO is the Moscow State Institute of International Relations (University) of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Moscow State Institute of International Relations of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs MGIMO MFA

In 2018, the Faculty of International Relations at MGIMO celebrated its 75th anniversary. Over the past years, thousands of specialists have been trained who have contributed to strengthening the foreign policy positions of our country in the international arena, to the development of social sciences and journalism. A highly professional teaching staff has emerged, constantly in creative search, capable of solving the most complex problems in the training and education of young specialists. Curricula are being improved in accordance with new requirements for training qualified international specialists. New training courses are being actively introduced. Teachers of major, special and language departments create multimedia teaching aids and distance learning courses. Many monographs, course programs, as well as unique forms of conducting classes, authored by faculty teachers, are adopted by other universities in Russia. The practice of delivering 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 new impetus to the modernization of higher education. The Faculty of International Relations took an active part in implementing the principles of the Bologna Process at MGIMO. New modular and comprehensive programs were developed for all taught disciplines, a competency-based approach was actively introduced, allowing for the formation of professional universalism of an international affairs specialist, and a rating system for assessing students’ knowledge was introduced. The learning process was divided into two levels - bachelor's and master's degrees. The bachelor's degree allowed us to create a fundamental basis for practice-oriented training. Faculty specialists were at the origins of master’s programs in the areas of “foreign regional studies” and “international relations”, and today the faculty’s departments are actively involved in the implementation of all specialized master’s programs at MGIMO, including 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 field of International Relations is one of the highest among all programs implemented at MGIMO.

The training of highly qualified international relations specialists requires a fundamental scientific base. Faculty staff and graduates are actively engaged in research activities within the framework of the University's scientific division - 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, and puts into practice the unity of education, science and upbringing.

The departments of the faculty are fruitful 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 a comprehensive educational and scientific center, interacting with Russian and foreign universities and scientific institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The Faculty of International Relations is characterized by a creative atmosphere, a pluralism of opinions, a variety of pedagogical and scientific concepts, and a deep awareness of strategic development objectives 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 until today, our faculty has been the country's leading center for training highly qualified international affairs specialists, a significant proportion of whom are foreign students - from countries both near and far abroad. Having appeared in 1943 exactly one year before the establishment of the institute itself, for many decades the Faculty of International Relations has not only served as the personification of MGIMO (it is not for nothing that the name of the faculty is already included in its abbreviation), but also contributes to the dynamic internal development of the university, because precisely by the need for further specialization of the curriculum, taught at the Moscow Region, explains the emergence of such basic faculties of the alma mater 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 enhance its glorious traditions, with their work contribute to the constant improvement of the training of modern international affairs professionals and to the implementation of the long-term goals of the development of our University .

Dean of the Faculty
Doctor of History, 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 changing times. First of all, this concerns the organization, equipment and support of the educational process.

The faculty uses a variety of forms and methods of teaching - round tables, business games, situational seminars, including with the involvement of 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.

Academic work according to the plans of the faculty, in addition to the general university (general education) departments, is carried out by major and special departments. The faculty's core departments 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. Teaching of regional studies, including history, economics and political systems of the countries studied, as well as countries of the region, is 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 language departments are highly qualified specialists with practical experience as interpreters, simultaneous interpreters and interpreters at high-level negotiations. The following departments teach foreign languages at the faculty:

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

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

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

Fluency in the main language being studied and mastery of a second foreign language is achieved through regular classes of 6–10 hours per week over 4–6 years of study. Although bachelor's degree graduates do not receive diplomas as professional translators or linguists, in most cases, in terms of their level of foreign language proficiency, they are not only not inferior to graduates of linguistic faculties, but even surpass them, especially when it comes to complex political negotiations, public speaking in the host country, and communication with representatives of the media. At the same time, many bachelor's degree graduates continue their studies in the linguistic master's program at MGIMO, 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 teaching activities. The scientific growth of young personnel is associated with research activities, with the opportunity to publish research results in the form of not only articles, but also monographs and textbooks.

A distinctive feature of studying at the faculty is the practical orientation of the education received. A mandatory element of the senior year curriculum is the “Diplomatic Module” - a lecture course conducted by the leadership of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a more detailed introduction to the structure of the Ministry and the features of work in all areas of the department’s activities. For many years, students of the Moscow Region have undergone introductory and pre-graduation internships at the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Presidential Administration, the Government Office, the State Duma, the Ministry of Economic Development, the largest domestic companies, leading media outlets, etc. Every year, more than 100 students have the opportunity to gain first professional experience during pre-diploma internships at Russian Embassies and Trade Missions around the world, as well as the secretariats of the most important international organizations (primarily the UN system).

An integral part of the educational process at the faculty is maintaining 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 Vitaly Churkin Moscow International Model of the United Nations (MIMUN) and the A.G. Karlov Diplomatic Club.

The UN Models, held annually, are an exciting role-playing game during which students and high school students coming to MGIMO from all over the world reproduce the work of UN bodies on behalf of official representatives of participating countries in all 5 languages of the organization. The ability to defend the official position of the country being represented, 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 named after. A.G. Karlova, operating at the Department of Diplomacy, is not only a community of those who plan to connect their fate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but also a platform for scientific and creative creativity, uniting the most talented, creative and enterprising students of all ages and faculties. Thematic master classes, “Diplomatic Olympiads” and the scientific and practical competition “Diplomat Briefing” have long become the “calling card” of the main club of the Faculty of International Relations, which is part of the MGIMO Scientific Student Society - an interfaculty association of scientific clubs of the institute.

Upon completion of the faculty, wide opportunities open up for diplomatic, research and teaching careers. Thanks to universal training, graduates of the faculty successfully study in economics, political science, and law master's programs at MGIMO and other Russian universities, as well as in prestigious foreign educational institutions. At the leading professional socio-political and language departments of the faculty, there are postgraduate schools with full-time study, and there is also the possibility of competition. Graduates also enter graduate school at leading departments of other MGIMO faculties, defend candidate and doctoral dissertations in historical, political, economic, legal and philological sciences, thereby replenishing the team of highly qualified international affairs specialists at MGIMO.

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

At the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, graduates of the faculty occupy 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 a source of personnel for the “command staff” of MGIMO. In addition to the rector, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences A.V. Torkunov, among his graduates are the vice-rector for master's and international programs A.A. Baykov, the vice-rector for academic affairs V.B. Kirillov, the vice-rector for general affairs A.V. Malgin, the vice-rector for personnel policy V.M. Morozov, dean of the faculty Yu.A. Bulatov and many other heads of departments and divisions of the institute. The fame of the faculty has long surpassed the boundaries 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 also CIS countries.

International cooperation of the faculty is carried out within the framework of general MGIMO programs. In addition, the faculty independently expands relations with universities and youth organizations in countries far and near 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.

Graduate of this university: I would like to share my impressions of 4 years
studying at the Faculty of International Journalism at MGIMO. Let's go point by point:

1. Languages
It has already been written here several times that MGIMO focuses on languages. It's like that. And this is an absolute lottery - you cannot choose the language. This applies to a greater extent to the Faculty of International Relations, where they are strictest about this. But it’s the same with MF. European languages are taught here more often, but Serbo-Croatian and Chinese are available once every five years. Think ten times whether you want to spend all your free time and nerves on endless translations (usually political topics). A huge plus, however, is that if you do love your language and work hard at it, many opportunities will open up for you. From foreign internships to part-time jobs. Almost all of my part-time jobs at the university were related to language in one way or another.

2. Specialty training
Well, there's no point in commenting on anything here. They won't train you to be a journalist here. However, I am not at all sure that there are universities in Russia that are capable of coping with this task. Programs become outdated too quickly. Nowadays people practically don’t read newspapers - only Internet portals, wouldn’t you agree? And at the MGIMO University of Journalism there are simply a bunch of subjects dedicated to newspaper journalism, and this is the main love of the head of the specialized department. For several semesters he will tell you about Soviet newspapers and demand that you know their circulation. But why?..... Why write newspaper reports in pairs? Learn how to layout a newspaper?
To be fair, there were indeed a couple of useful and interesting items. Pair. Not more.
Secondly, journalism is a practice. You won't get it at the faculty. There is a master class for journalists, which is often taught by people who either have not worked in journalism at all, or who have long since retired from the profession.
All the professional journalists to whom I came for internships said that to have a career in journalism you need to go and work. And here we are faced with the next point.

3. Work
At MGIMO it is almost impossible to combine study with full-time work. Firstly, very heavy training loads. Secondly, they monitor attendance quite strictly, which affects grades. There are exceptions, but they are rare.

4. Contingent
The problem of the journalism department as a phenomenon rather than of MGIMO is a very uneven gender composition. There are few boys, and they are trying in every possible way to encourage them so that they at least somehow dilute the woman’s kingdom. When there are only girls in a team, fights often happen out of nowhere. Plus there are a lot of ambitious Olympiad students who are ready to kill you to be the first to answer at the seminar. But here everything very much depends on the group.
But at MGIMO, contrary to stereotypes, there is practically no problem of social stratification - both Olympiad athletes from the Ryazan region and golden youth from Rublevskoye Shosse peacefully coexist in one group. Teachers look at knowledge of the subject, and everyone is equal at seminars. But there is still a problem with those who are richer and stupider - and these are not bribes. I have never heard of bribes during tests or exams. However, you can almost always write it off. Some classmates came to each exam with some kind of ultra-modern, discreet headphones, into which their tickets were dictated to them. Young people also very often buy analytical reports and course papers. And at that moment, when you bring your honestly written term paper, and the hen in stiletto heels proudly puts “her” beautifully bound work next to her, and you know that she didn’t lift a manicured finger to do anything, you start to think about workers' and peasants' uprising:)

5. Job prospects
They exist, and it’s not for nothing that MGIMO leads the list of graduates’ employment. Those who want to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can try their luck at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (boys are especially willing to take it). Very often there is a job related to your foreign language. Several classmates work directly in their specialty - namely, international political news. Someone is going to a master's program (by the way, never enroll in a master's program in linguistics, there are fewer language pairs there than at a bachelor's degree, and there are more meaningless subjects).

Conclusion:
In general, looking at the state of Russian education and Russian journalism in general, MGIMO is probably not such a bad place to get a bachelor’s degree. It sounds prestigious, you know the language, you have a superficial understanding of politics and international relations (and a journalist doesn’t need more). You can go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, TASS, or RT.
But if you are looking for a fun party and wonderful memories of your student years, if you want to enroll in journalism out of love for literature and creativity, if you don’t want to translate texts about party systems, but want to write/film about people, fashion, science, then don’t ruin your youth :) Especially for paid users. Tuition at MGIMO MG this year costs half a million. For that kind of money it is quite possible to get a good education in the field of some kind of digital journalism in the West.

Information about the university

History of MGIMO

The Moscow State Institute of International Relations, founded in 1944, is considered the oldest center where international relations specialists were trained. By decision of the Council of People's Commissars (October 14, 1944), it was decided to create this educational institution from the international faculty of Moscow State University. After the opening, there were only three faculties at MGIMO: economics, international and legal. There were only 200 students in the First Enrollment, but since 1946 they began sending applicants from foreign countries to study.

In 1954 there was a connection with the MIV (Moscow Institute of Oriental Studies). As a result, the university had an oriental department and a unique Lazarevsky library, which was famous for its collection of oriental literature. In 1958, the Institute of Foreign Trade (established in 1934) became part of MGIMO. Thanks to this circumstance, the training of specialists in foreign economic activity has significantly increased, and the Faculty of Economics has expanded. In 1969, the Faculty of International Journalism and the Faculty of International Law were inaugurated at the institute, and in 1991 - the Faculty of International Business and Business Administration.

In 1994, the Moscow State Institute of International Relations was deservedly awarded the status of a university. In 1998, the Faculty of Political Science was opened. In 2000, for better training of specialists in international cooperation, the International Institute of Energy Policy and Diplomacy was formed at the university. In 2011, the Institute of Foreign Economic Relations was transformed into the Faculty of Applied Economics and Commerce.
