Types of institutions in Russia

Russia has three types of institutions:

• Universities: responsible for education and research in a variety of disciplines; There are "classical" and "technical" universities with special attention paid respectively to social sciences and humanities or natural fundamental and applied (engineering) sciences. Unofficial ratings also distinguish old "classical" universities and "new" universities, former pedagogical or technical institutions which have acquired their university status quite recently.

• Academies: responsible for education and research. They differ from universities only in that they restrict themselves to a single discipline;

• Institutes: multi-discipline oriented. They can be independent structural units, or part of a university or academy and usually specialize in one field. However pedagogical institutes are responsible for the entire spectrum of disciplines taught at schools

• Private institutions: present in increasing numbers. They offer degrees in non-engineering fields such as business, culture, sociology and religion.

Degree structure

There is a new degree structure, which follows a three-tier pattern, three levels, and uses U.S./British nomenclature.

Currently there are only two types of diploma (degrees) which are officially recognized as certifying a completed higher education - these are diploma of specialist and diploma of a Master level (magistr).

The Bachelor diploma and the certificate of "incomplete higher education" are not regarded as high education degrees. In some cases a bachelor degree suffices to start a career. However, bachelors (or undergraduates) are not allowed to take positions where higher education is required by labor law or by custom, and they can't get the research degree of Candidate of Sciences. Male graduates are drafted into the army as soldiers and must serve for two years while specialists and post-graduates have a 6 month shorter conscription period.

It should be noted that Russia has signed the Bologna Declaration and by the year 2010 transition to a two- tier degree structure should be completed, the objective is specified as one of the ultimate goals of the country's educational reforms.
