Peter the Great Military Academy of the Strategic Missile Forces
(Mikhailovskoe Artillerieschule)
1820
Innokenty Seredin graduated from this educational institution

It is one of the leading institutions of higher military and higher technical domestic education. For almost two centuries, it has repeatedly changed its purpose and, accordingly, its name. Its history dates back to the officer classes of the Artillery School, officially opened on November 25 (old style) - December 7 (NS), 1820 in St. Petersburg. In 1845 the school was given the name Mikhailovsky. Since 1855 - Mikhailovsky Artillery Academy; since 1919 - Artillery Academy of the Red Army; since 1925 - Military Technical Academy of the Red Army; since 1926 - Military Technical Academy named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky; since 1932 - Military Artillery Academy of the Red Army; since 1934 - Artillery Academy of the Red Army named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky. In 1938 she was transferred to Moscow, in 1941-1944 she was stationed in the city of Samarkand (Uzbek SSR). In 1945, a jet weapons department was created at the academy and the training of rocket engineers began. In 1953, there was a division into two academies - the Military Artillery Engineering Academy named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky with a deployment in Moscow and the Military Artillery Academy named after M. I. Kalinin in the historical building of the Mikhailovsky Artillery Academy in Leningrad, now St. Petersburg.

On March 24, 1960, it was introduced into the Strategic Missile Forces. Since 1963 - Military Engineering Academy named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky; since 1972 - Military Academy named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky; from August 25, 1997 - Military Academy of the Strategic Missile Forces named after Peter the Great. In 1998, by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1009, it was reorganized into the Military Academy of Strategic Missile Forces named after Peter the Great with a branch in the city of Kubinka (formerly the Moscow Higher School of Air Defense Radioelectronics). In 2008, as separate formations (in fact, branches) as part of the reform of military education by order of the Government of the Russian Federation, the Serpukhov Military Institute of Missile Forces and the Rostov Military Institute of Missile Forces named after Chief Marshal of Artillery M. I. Nedelin became part of the academy.

For a long period, the Mikhailovsk Military Artillery Academy was a center for the development of weapons theory, the development of the fundamentals for the design and production of firearms, missiles, and mine-explosive devices - means of defeating and destroying the enemy. The works of N.V. Maievsky, K.I. Konstantinov, A.V. Gadolin, D.K. Chernov, S.I. Mosin, G.A. Zabudsky, V.N. Ipatiev, M.M. won worldwide fame. Pomortsev, V. M. Trofimov, N. F. Drozdov, D. A.

00:00 / 03:16
A privileged military school of the Russian Empire, which existed in St. Petersburg from 1823 to 1917. The school's graduates included many prominent military and civilian figures in Russia in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

From the moment of its creation until the February Revolution, only hereditary nobles - teachers and cadets - were accepted into service at the Nicholas Cavalry School. Initially, there were no certain standards of secondary education for admission to school by a cadet of private rank. Subsequently, the school accepted the most successful graduates of the cadet corps: it was necessary to have at least 9 points in science and 8 points in behavior.

The school trained officers for both regular cavalry and Cossack troops. Since 1890, the school's cadets were administratively divided into a squadron and a hundred: 250 cadets in a squadron, 120 in a hundred.

The course of study was a two-year course, and its ultimate goal was to prepare graduates for regimental cavalry service. The main academic subjects were tactics, military affairs, topography, military administration, hippology, artillery, fortification, law, hygiene and drawing; general education subjects taught the Law of God, Russian, French and German languages, mathematics, mechanics, geography, physics, chemistry, history, economics, government and psychology.

Upon completion of training, the squadron's cadets were graduated as cornets into the guards and army cavalry, and hundreds of cadets were graduated as cornets into the Cossack cavalry. There was an opportunity to take exams for a college course as an external student.

Since 1864, graduation was carried out after the summer camp gathering, since one camp gathering (after the 1st year) was considered insufficient. At first, the best graduates were sent to artillery and engineering troops, but soon graduation from combined arms schools into these types of troops was stopped.

In the period from 1918 to 1997, over 120,000 specialists were trained, most of whom connected their lives with scientific and design activities, working at the largest mechanical and instrument making enterprises. Some branch faculties of MSTU are also located in cities near Moscow: Krasnogorsk, Reutov, Korolev, and there is also a branch in Kaluga. By order of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated April 12, 2016 No. 397, the Moscow State Forest University was affiliated with the N. E. Bauman MSTU as a separate structural unit, becoming the Mytishchi branch of the N. E. Bauman MSTU.

During the existence of the university, over 200,000 engineers have been trained there.

In 2018, MSTU entered the top 150 global universities for the employment of graduates; the ranking was compiled by the consulting company Emerging and is based on the opinions of employers in 22 countries.

Famous graduates of the educational institution
Imperial School of Jurisprudence
A CLOSED-TYPE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION FOR HEREDITARY NOBLES

29.05.1833 - 18.06.1918
His Excellency Georgy Tkachev graduated from this educational institution

The school was opened in December 1835 and already in 1840 the first graduation of 14 civil servants took place. In total, during the years of the school's existence until the beginning of 1918, more than 2,000 professionals were trained, who left a noticeable mark on the social and cultural life of Russia.

On the initiative of the Tsar's nephew, Prince Peter of Oldenburg and with the close participation of M. M. Speransky, with the aim of educating legally competent personnel for administrative and judicial activities, the charter and staff of the new School of Law under the Ministry of Justice were approved by decree of Nicholas I on May 29, 1835.

Pyotr Georgievich Oldenburgsky, appointed as the trustee of the school, purchased for it from the heirs of Senator I. N. Neplyuev a house on the Fontanka River Embankment, 6 (opposite the Summer Garden), for 700,000 rubles. The house was rebuilt by architects A. I. Melnikov and V. P. Stasov. State Councilor S. A. Poshman was appointed director of the school, and professor of the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum E. V. Wrangel was appointed inspector. On December 7, 1835, two days after the grand opening, classes began at the new school.

The school was a privileged closed educational institution and was equal in status to the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum. It accepted up to 100 sons of hereditary nobles aged 12 to 17. The school was fee-based, but tuition for state-funded students was paid for by the treasury.

The duration of study was initially set at 6 years, but from 1838 it was increased to 7 years with a division into two courses: junior - gymnasium (grades VII, VI, V and IV) and senior - university (grades III, II and I). Since 1847, preparatory classes were established at the school (since 1856, three-year classes).

In the junior year, they studied the classical gymnasium program in full (however, Greek was replaced by natural science), and in the university year, they studied the encyclopedia of jurisprudence (basic law course), church, Roman, civil, commercial, criminal and state law, civil and criminal proceedings, the history of Roman law, international law, forensic medicine, police law, political economy, financial laws, the history of religions, the history of philosophy, in connection with the history of the philosophy of law, Latin and English (German and French were also optional).

A library was created at the school, and later a museum of the history of the school. The book collection was based on 364 volumes (184 works), purchased from the bookseller Smirdin by the time the school opened. The following year, the library was replenished with a complete collection of laws in 80 volumes. In 1838, a library of French books and geographical maps was purchased for the library. Publications from various educational institutions were sent to the library as gifts - scientific notes, dissertations, and others. By 1885, the collection numbered about 6,000 books. The library subscribed to general and specialized Russian and foreign periodicals.

The cost of maintaining the school at the end of the 19th century was 225,000 rubles annually; of which 90,000 were released from the treasury, and the rest was reimbursed by fees for the maintenance of students. In order to provide financial assistance to needy students and graduates, as well as their families, in 1885 the charter of the Legal Fund was approved, the members of which were, first of all, former students of the school - mostly high-ranking dignitaries who paid annual or one-time contributions.

All graduates were required to serve 6 years in the institutions of the Ministry of Justice. Those who graduated from the school with honors received the ranks of the IX and X classes (titular councilor and collegiate secretary - equivalent to a staff captain and lieutenant in the army) and were sent mainly to the chanceries of the Ministry of Justice and the Senate; others were sent to judicial places in the provinces, in accordance with the successes of each.

Noting the activity of preparing “young noblemen for civil service in the judicial branch,” Alexander III, in a rescript on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the school, called for further directing “their efforts to the upbringing of Russian youth, affirming their students in the rules of faith, truth and good morality and in unwavering devotion to the Throne and the Fatherland.” Over the years of its existence, the School of Law, which was one of the few legal educational institutions in Russia, was able to prepare more than 2,000 highly qualified lawyers.

The Regulations indicated that they were adopted as a temporary measure, pending the introduction of the Regulations on District Artillery Schools being developed in the Main Artillery Directorate.


Students were selected for the Don School for preferential troops; batteries that were in field external service (not on benefits) were supposed to send Cossacks to district fireworks schools (non-commissioned officer rank in the artillery units of the Russian Imperial Army).

The school recruited Cossacks who had served no more than 2 years and Cossacks from among those enrolled in the service ranks. All applicants to artillery schools had to be literate, preference was given to those who had higher knowledge of the subjects taught at the school. Cossacks entering schools had to purchase at their own expense uniforms, edged weapons and riding horses, 4 pairs of underwear, two pairs of boots, a blanket and two sheets. The duration of schooling was two years. The training program included the following subjects: the law of God, the Russian language, arithmetic, artillery, basic information from geometry and fortification. The training was based on practical exercises, which developed stable knowledge in future civil servants in their specialty. At the end of school, Cossacks were graduated as bombardiers (corresponding to corporal), with the right to be promoted to non-commissioned officer after 6 months. If there was no vacancy, they were promoted with seniority from the date of graduation. Low-performing students could be retained for a second year if they behaved well. School commanders had the rights of Commander of a field artillery battery. Officer teachers were selected from among those who had served in the ranks for at least 2 years. In addition to teaching, they were in charge of departments (study groups), and they appointed police officers or fireworksmen (two per class) as assistants. Cossacks who studied at school received a benefit: for each year of study, two years of benefits. Cossack Artillery schools differed in staff. At the Don Artillery School, the staff was determined to be: 5 officers, 9 non-commissioned officers and 90 students.
