Over 350 million people across the world speak Russian. International graduates of Foundation and Russian language courses all round Russia annually join them.

Preparatory faculty is a university course where international students are prepared for their further studies and degree programs at Russian universities. During one academic year (8-10 months), students learn the Russian language and major subjects required for their future specialty: Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, Information Technologies and others. The program of the Foundation course is of medium complexity and is designed for the applicants with intermediate knowledge and skills. The students who regularly attend their classes and diligently do their homework normally do not have any issues with their studies and mastering the academic program.

Experience has shown that over 95% of the students successfully complete their Foundation course and are subsequently enrolled for the main program (to the first year of their specialty) in Russian. Upon completion of the Foundation course international students usually demonstrate adequate language skills. They can read and understand the written text, retell the texts and participate in discussions; they have good comprehension of spoken Russian and are ready to engage in a dialogue; they are capable of rendering in writing any texts they read; they can also write down lectures, summarize and make proper notes. Moreover, international students have an opportunity for daily practice of their Russian which is also an important contribution to mastering the language: they speak at the students’ hostel and university, on the streets, in shops etc. Therefore, the Russian language appears not so difficult to learn, nowadays over 310 000 international students from 200 different countries have already become students at Russian universities and are doing great in their studies.
