  The history of the Belgorod State National Research University is closely connected with the history of teacher education in Russia. The reforms of the 60s of the XIX century contributed to the acceleration of the development of the economy, trade, military affairs and led to an increase in the number of educational institutions. Since 1872, secondary specialized educational institutions - teacher's institutes - began to be created.

  In September 1876, in the county town of Belgorod, by order of the Ministry of Public Education of the Russian Empire, a teacher's institute was opened - the ninth in a row in Russia. From this moment begins a difficult but interesting path of the university.

  From a teacher's institute in 1919, during the reorganization, it was transformed into a pedagogical one, then again becomes a teacher's one.

  In 1923, a decision was made to transform it into a pedagogical technical school.

  In 1939 it was transformed into the Belgorod Teachers' Institute.

  The 140-year history of the Belgorod State National Research University is inextricably linked with a whole era in Russian education. The reforms of the 60s of the 19th century contributed to the development of the entire education system in Russia. On May 31, 1872, the "Regulations on Teachers' Institutes" signed by Alexander II was published. And in the seventies, the first teacher's institutes began to open in different cities of the country.

  The Belgorod Teachers' Institute, which opened in 1876, became the ninth teacher's institute in our country.

  BelSU Medical College

  BelSU Medical College - one of the oldest colleges in Russia - traces its history back to 1932, when a medical college was opened in Belgorod by a decree of the Council of People's Commissars. It was located in a pre-revolutionary merchant's house on the site of a modern building [ ] . In 1935, the technical school was reorganized into a feldsher-obstetric school. In 1954, by order of the Minister of Health of the USSR, the feldsher-obstetric school was transformed into a medical school. In 1992, the school received the status of a medical college. In 1997, the college became a structural subdivision of the Belgorod State University.

  Students study in the following specialties: General Medicine, Obstetrics, Nursing, Preventive Dentistry, Pharmacy, Laboratory Diagnostics.

  Branches

  Alekseevsky branch of BelSU (now Alekseevsky branch of the federal state autonomous educational institution of higher professional education "Belgorod State National Research University" (AF NRU "BelSU")) in the city of Alekseyevka, Belgorod Region, was opened in 1999 in accordance with the Order of the Ministry of General and Vocational Education of the Russian Federation Federation. The branch in the city of Stary Oskol, Belgorod Region, was established in 1999 by the Order of the Ministry of General and Vocational Education of the Russian Federation. It is the successor of the Stary Oskol Pedagogical Institute (1866-1917), the Stary Oskol Pedagogical Institute (1917-1941), the Stary Oskol Pedagogical University (1941-1954), the Stary Oskol Pedagogical Institute (1954-1999)

  Scientific divisions

  In 2004 BelSU announced a competition for the formation of new scientific divisions of the university. As a result of the competition, a project of a scientific group headed by Professor Yu. R. Kolobov from the Institute of Strength Physics and Materials Science of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Tomsk) was supported to create a Center for Nanostructural Materials and Nanotechnologies (NSMN Center) of BelSU. In 2005, a scientific group of 9 people, by agreement between the leaders of the academic and university organizations (in order of transfer), began work at Belgorod State University.

  The main directions of applied research of the Center:

  • development of technological processes and equipment for obtaining bulk metallic nanostructured materials for use in medicine and technology.
  • development in clinical practice of bioinert and bioactive implants for use in traumatology, orthopedics, dentistry and cardiac surgery.
  • development of a technological process and equipment for the synthesis of nano-hydroxylapatite for use in therapeutic and prophylactic preparations in dentistry and for applying biactive coatings to surgical, dental and orthopedic implants.

  To begin with, I entered my university the second time. In the first year, I was not lucky. in schools there was a double graduation and, as a result, twice as many applicants, the passing score for my faculty was very high. I will say in my defense that I lacked only three points. The second time was successful. There were much fewer applicants and the passing score was lowered.

  And now I am a student of Belgorod State University. There were twenty of us in the group. Eighteen girls and only two boys, but by the end of the first year there were only twelve of us left, and yes, only one guy. Our university is large - ten thousand students. I will not say that the university is particularly popular, in recent years there have been fewer and fewer applicants. However, our university has one big plus - these are specialties that are unique in their kind, i.е. only our university trains specialists in this direction.

  The organization of the educational process was quite acceptable. Couples started at nine in the morning, a maximum of four couples. The couple lasted an hour and twenty, without a break, which I think is much more convenient. I would especially like to note our dining room. for the student, the canteen is the main place in the university. They fed us excellently, the choice is like in a restaurant, and the prices are infinitely pleasing.

  The teaching staff was terrible. All the teachers were immediately hostile, they tried to force us to pick up the documents, and one person almost threw books at us. For a first year student, it was terrible. There were tears, and screams, and tantrums.

  There was no student life as such. We were not lucky, our faculty was far from the main building, and we never attended the holidays and events organized by the student activists. In our building there was always silence and no movement. We learned about all the events, concerts, seminars only after a week. It was hell for me, I felt like I was turning into a vegetable.

  In defense of my university, I want to say that we have no corruption. No one has ever taken bribes. I heard that they offered, but our teachers firmly held the defense and did not agree.

  In my specialty, I have to work because. I studied at the expense of the budget, but I hate my job and dream of escaping as soon as possible. I realized that after the first failure, I had to choose another university and another specialty.

  And finally, I want to give advice to future students. Guys, please, choose your future profession consciously, yourself, choose what you really want to do, do not listen to anyone, not friends, not relatives, only yourself.

  National Research University Belgorod State University - Research Institute BelSU Belgorod

  Surprisingly, BelSU, especially the so-called. the new building is popular among the townsfolk - a lot of money was invested in the improvement, so the university itself and the surrounding area turned out to be the main and most beautiful sight of the city, where it is very pleasant to spend time. BelSU as a place of study is very popular in the region, although recently it has had quite a lot of competition from branches of nonresident universities, including Moscow ones. The Technological Academy is also in serious competition. I heard such an opinion that the quality of education there is higher. studied only at BelSU.

  Entering a prestigious faculty "without blat" is quite difficult, but real. I entered although of course I had to sweat and cram.

  The competition for a place is different - depending on the faculty - it’s getting harder to get to the fashionable ones, especially to the free department every year, while others, on the contrary, are barely recruiting and even trying to lure applicants and students from other faculties.

  For a regional university, the university has a very large building scattered over several districts of the city, and still there are a lot of students, most of them are visitors, including students from distant countries in the area near the university dormitories, you can meet students of various nationalities.

  In groups, on average, 25-35 people, depending on the faculty. The university buildings themselves are big people, but the organization was approached correctly and there are almost no flea markets and traffic jams. True, at first, confusion in the many corridors is inevitable. As for the organization of the educational process, there is still work to be done. Teachers, mostly of 2 generations, are young only because of their desks or those who will not be retired in any way, there are pluses in this, but there are more minuses, since the average training of teachers suffers. Often, instead of teachers, lectures are given by senior students, at best, graduate students, and they do this almost illegally. Teaching hours go to professors and others.

  Gatherings of trade unions and so on are mostly forcibly ostentatious in the best Soviet traditions; instead of classes, students are "driven" to various kinds of extras and conferences. But we must pay tribute to there are health facilities and vouchers, including abroad, but of course there are not enough of them for everyone, you understand.

  A lot of window dressing, however, we have it everywhere.

  Unfortunately, the business of “selling tickets” for a test (exam) is flourishing and some teachers are so insolent that they demand that all students donate “on books”, “on paper” or even “on a teapot” for the department, regardless of whether the student knows subject or not. Plus, a legal tax on all students “purchasing university products” - if you think that a research institution publishes and forcibly sells books in order to increase the education of students, then you are mistaken professors and associate professors distribute sweets, T-shirts, caps and other consumer goods with the alma logo mater.

  They help to find a job after graduation, but not for everyone and in different ways - they can offer a deliberately unacceptable vacancy in Tmutarakan. A lot of people who have received a diploma do not work in their specialty, but at best in a related field, and even then this is a rarity, a diploma of higher education is often required for show. Well, in this case, the checkmark will be bold. The university, despite its shortcomings, is still prestigious in our region.

  I am a student of the Belgorod National Research University (NRU BelGU) in the city of Belgorod. This is one of the largest universities in Russia, where more than 30 thousand people study. It also ranks 64th in the Top 100 Russian Universities. We have quite a lot of international students. Before entering BelSU, I was very worried that they would not accept me, but, as it turned out, in vain. In 2009, when I entered, there was a shortage of students in almost all faculties, so everyone was accepted on a paid basis. If we talk about studying on a budgetary basis, then the competition was on average 5 people per place when I entered. More up-to-date data can be found on the official website of the university. NRU BelGU is one of the two largest universities in the city. He constantly competes with the Belgorod State Technological University. Shukhov. Of course, if it comes to technical specialties, then at BSTU. Shukhov is better trained, but there are no humanitarian specialties. Bribes at NRU BelGU are monitored very strictly. In many faculties, it is impossible to buy an exam. Although, as they say, the Faculty of Law, the Faculty of Economics, the Faculty of Business and Service, and the Faculty of Physical Education are the exception. At the same time, for example, at the Faculty of Medicine, at the Faculty of Romano-Germanic Philology, one should not try to bribe a teacher. It is difficult to judge the teaching staff. Of course, as elsewhere, there are favorite teachers, and not so much. As for student life at the university, we organize competitions of KVN teams between faculties, Miss BelGu is chosen every year, in May the entire university goes to the Nezhigol natural park for one day, where all students celebrate health day.
