The Polytechnic Institute has been set up as a very special place destined for much more that the ordinary. It was the institution originated with a distinctive character and a promise of high quality. From the beginning the Institute lived up to the aspirations of its founders.

Several important elements have contributed to successful development of the University during its century long lifetime: the constant State support combined with academic autonomy, favorable disposition, extremely high concentration of talent, advanced educational programmes based on solid theoretical knowledge, traditions of extensive research with active students' involvement, vast and close links with industry and commerce, the distinctive pioneering spirit inherited from generation to generation of faculty and students.

The State support combined with academic autonomy

From the outset the Institute has received favourable attention and support of the State. The Polytechnical University is under the direct jurisdiction of the Russian Federation Ministry of Education. According to the decision adopted by the Ministry the Technical University was certified and recognized as one of the country's leading institutes. It has been selected by the Ministry as one of the few universities for investment priority. At the same time, the University enjoys an exclusive academic independence with regards to its educational programmes which the institute is allowed to maintain in accordance with its own traditions. The University rates among the top two technical universities in Russian academic hierarchy.



Disposition Polytechnic was built up as a satellite town let in the Northern environs of Russia's Capital. Its campus and numerous buildings reside over vast green grounds known as the Pine Tree (Sosnovka) and Forestry (Lesnoy) regions. Such spacious disposition, the long established tradition of pioneering research, high educational standards, cultural heritage and alumni fraternity altogether bear some analogy with American Ivy League universities. Its esteemed position in Russian educational hierarchy is comparable to that of MIT in US academic circles.

Concentration of talent

Approach to faculty selection that characterizes the University has always served to establish tradition of quality and enhance its reputation of prestige. The high standard of training at the Polytechnical University is guaranteed by the high level of the experienced teachers and professors. Among the University faculty there are outstanding individuals, specialists with leadership positions in industry, economy, governmental bodies of St.Petersburg and the Region, holders of distinguishing academic and research titles and honorary awards. To ensure the prolonged certainty of a highly qualified personnel the University traditionally pays much attention to raising the younger generation of faculty members by inviting talented postgraduates to promising academic carrier positions on teaching and research staff.



Theoretic Knowledge Plus Hands-on Experience for Students

The University adheres to the three long established traditions which it believes are of the utmost importance in education:

- to build every curriculum on a solid background of general theoretic science and mathematics

- to foster active learning through problem solving and through hands-on experience

- to encourages a pioneering spirit among its students by providing an environment for exploration.

These goals are achieved via a challenging curriculum, instruction by experienced full-time faculty members in comparatively small classes, students' research of their own under guidance by a tutor, and , for qualified students in their 3rd or 4th year, an opportunity for active involvement in ongoing research projects.



Links with industry and commerce

Since the turn of the past century Polytech has become the alma-mater to over a hundred thousand graduates, its alumni forming elite corps of research and engineering in technical science and industry. Its contribution in developing the resource base of the north-west region and in the industrial development of Russia in the past century was unsurpassed, especially in metallurgy, ship-building, rail transport, hydraulic construction, civil engineering, electrical power industry and, later, in nuclear power industry, computer industry and space projects. Through its alumni, many of whom tend to rise to commanding positions in industry, business and finance, the Polytechnical University has long-established and lasting contacts, collaboration and contracts with enterprises and institutions not only in Saint Petersburg and its environs, but throughout Russia and the former Republics. The Polytechnical University collaborates with over 300 industrial organizations. In recent years with commercial activities becoming a part of academic life and commercial units becoming a part of university structure, business links are also growing to bring in financial support to education and research.

HERITAGE SPBSPUHERITAGE SPBSPU

The Polytechnical University has inherited many treasures of historic, architectural and decorative art value. The campus itself is beautiful site, a greater part of which is a large park with magnificent buildings erected at the turn of the century, with memorial monuments.


The Main Building with its palace-like facade bearing a combination of baroque, roman and classic styles is the most impressive building among others on the campus.

Hydraulic Tower that architecturally dominates the picturesque park complex is one generic constructions on the campus site. Since 1905 it served not only for original purposes of water supply for the campus, but it was and still is used as an unique engineering construction instrumental for various hydraulic experiments and research.


The Church of Intercession of the Holy Virgin was built on University campus in 1913 in accordance with design by architects I.V. Podlevsky and V.P. Tavlinov. The Church was decorated in the ancient Russian style, marvelous icons and splendid candelabra are the main elements of the inner decor. The Church was inaugurated on 15 December, 1913.

The full-size sculpture of Lev N.Tolstoy by renowned artist I.Ya.Ginzburg (1859-1839) resides in the Reading Hall since 1911.


Historical Museum of Technology was founded in the Polytechnical University in 1976 and is a depository of national importance. Since 1987 the museum serves as the Scientific and Methodical Centre Headquarters for museums of all universities in St.Petersburg and in the north-west region of Russia. Its activities have been recognised and marked by a number of state rewards and certificates for achievements.
