Good day! I am a student at the Faculty of Economics and Mathematics, I entered on an off-budget basis (a couple of points were missing). I would like to dispel myths about shortcomings and bribes, because it’s a shame for my favorite university.
1. The university is very intimate, small, the teachers are not only professionals in their field, but also understanding people who are always ready to meet. We have groups of 30 people, teachers, even lecturers know the students by name, the atmosphere is quite comfortable.
2. If you take a language from scratch, and the choice of languages in VAT is very rich, you can be sure that after 4 years of study you will leave with a decent level of knowledge of this language. English of course
3. VAT has a study program Chinese language with further exchange of students in the 5th semester of study. That is, at my faculty, the guys study in a separate group, they have special disciplines related to the specifics of working with China.
4. Regarding bribes. No no and one more time no. Yes, mathematics is very strong, in some technical universities it is even easier. If you have any problems with calculus or linear algebra, you can ask the teacher for an additional lesson, but it is FREE. Consultations are created before or after couples and there ...
Show in full...you can personally resolve all issues. You can rewrite some work, ask questions that interest you, or come and solve problems for consolidation. The teacher always goes to meet the student if the student has valid reasons for his absence or failure to complete the assignment.
5. The downside, which I don’t even dare call a downside, is that there is a building not far from the Khovrino metro station. It takes 15-20 minutes to walk, but you can also get there by public transport. Despite this, the building is small, cozy, there are never queues or crowds
6. Absolutely all disciplines are very interesting, even if you understand that you will never need them, you will just be interested in listening to them and looking for interesting information
7. Availability of a sports complex: swimming pool, gym, games room, cardio room. You can sign up anywhere and go to physical education in the chosen direction. You can also attend this outside of class absolutely free
8. The load is really colossal. 4-5 pairs a day is the norm, a large number of seminars and assignments, but if you want knowledge and are ready to work hard, then this is definitely the place for you
Thank you!
I am a graduate of the Academy. With some points, such as the excessive demands of the department in English, I probably agree. But it should be noted that at the department there are strict, but no less worthy people, and there’s no need to offend everyone right away.
There was a saying at the Academy that the diploma is only good when you pass the state exam in English with a 5 (or at least a 4). I have studied English all my life, I was in the strongest English language group at preparatory courses HSE, I wrote the Unified State Exam in English with 92 points without special preparation, and, in the end, I got 3 on the state exam at VAVT. My diploma suddenly turned blue, it was very disappointing; subsequently, when entering an English university, I was very nervous, because due to the fact that my diploma’s average score was spoiled by this three, I was crossing the line (it was reflected twice - for the subject and for the state, the average score for the diploma simply collapsed) . But still, it should be noted that I passed IELTS without preparation with a very good score, I can’t say for sure whether this is the merit of the Academy and the English department, or the fact that I have been learning English since kindergarten.
*Highway*, *fence-building* Academy is called only by people who do not work in the field in which ...
Show in full...This is how the Academy is designed. The target audience of the Academy is international companies, ILF, and so on. I have always aspired to work for international companies, since the salaries there are much higher than the average in Russian companies, and I have never encountered questions “what is VAVT” either from recruiters or from managers. Majority Russian companies they offer salaries much lower than in international ones, plus not the same interesting job, so if future/present VAVT members are reading me, strive exactly where they are sharpening you.
It’s very difficult to study, there are really a lot of classes, you crawl home, and a bunch more homework, but let's look at the other side of the coin. International companies have a very high competition; there is almost always an interview on legal issues, either in the form of a test or orally. If it weren’t for the pressure at the Academy, like any lazy student, I would hardly have taught the way I did. By the way, I don’t agree that the program is poorly structured (3 types of stories don’t count, this applies to all law schools; Latin was excluded during my time, when it was still taught as a separate subject at many law faculties). At the moment, I regret that I did not pay enough attention to electives and “unimportant” subjects, since now I am independently looking for the information that was given to us on a silver platter, and I cannot find it to the extent that was explained at the Academy (special courses on INCOTERMS, operations on foreign trade transactions, etc.). Conclusion: if you are ready to work your butt off and then reap pleasant rewards in the form of a big salary in good companies, the Academy is for you. It is no coincidence that many good vacancies on hh.ru write “preferably MSU, VAVT, MGIMO.” If you want to go on a spree like in American films, it is better to choose a simpler place, but in this case I am more than sure that subsequently getting a job in an international corporation for a pleasant salary will be very difficult due to gaps in knowledge and due to the tough competition, including from students and graduates of VAVT.
I am a second year student at FEM VAVT. I am learning English as my first language and German as my second language.
The level of teaching both languages and mathematics. disciplines are very high. In the second year there are interesting important disciplines, and they are taught just as wonderfully (both lectures and seminars).
Teachers are always happy to explain, advise, and guide. Excellent people and true professionals in their field, in all departments!
The downside of studying here is that the program is quite complex and intense, which is difficult to complete without perseverance and hard work. But for those who love to learn, this is, of course, a huge plus.
Excellent opportunities for sports: excellent swimming pool, games room and gym, fitness, cardio, martial arts, etc. (counts as physical training).
Extracurricular life is also developed. There are sports, social, scientific, cultural and information centers. You can prove yourself in journalism, cases, scientific conferences, sports, dancing, vocals, and studies, of course.
Training is quite expensive, but if you study well, there is a high probability that after the first 2 sessions you will be transferred to budget training, or will provide a discount.
The hostel is also good. The apartments are calm, the atmosphere is conducive to studying, and the renovations are quite recent.
I entered the second tower. Bachelor's degree. Absolutely fucked up English department. The English women have absolutely no qualms about teaching not applicants or students for a long time, but being rude to independent adults non-stop. It’s amazing to miss classes that happen in the evenings, and in the evenings working people who earn money for this study have various events, especially of a work nature, skipping which for the sake of English classes risks losing their jobs :-/. These crazy women don’t want to listen at all that there is anything in the world other than ENGLISH! the aunts were rude to each of the listeners personally at various stages of training, without being embarrassed by anyone’s presence they could throw out their inadequacy in direct yelling at the person. There were outrages from the teachers of the department: like, we won’t allow you all to take the state exam. Only these will go, they are a strong group, and we won’t even give you materials for preparation. It was decided through the dean's office. Shuffling of English groups, incomprehensible mergers after two years of study. Englishwomen as teachers are also not so great. The constant message from everyone that you have gathered here is not that your English is weak, but in general ...
Show in full...idiots. As for legal English....texts about legal systems, Roman law, etc. could not be explained (although the books were written by their colleagues at VAVT) when questions arose for understanding and translation. Why they got mad and started persecution like, it’s written here, it’s correct, but don’t be clever, because you don’t know anything. In general, in principle, you should go to the second tower only if there is pressure, but not there.
The education in general is not bad, but these three years of English canceled out all the good things from the university.
The Academy itself is normal, when I entered, they immediately accepted documents for MPF, I entered on a budgetary basis. I liked the hostel, everything you need is there! The Academy accepts everyone for training, and by the 3rd year, half of the students are expelled, supposedly they collect all the money for training, sufficient quantity money, they take bribes! And the rest who “didn’t like” are expelled at their choice, whoever they want, I can fail everyone, if I have the desire! Well, and they retain some kind of status ala the Academy, in fact there is no status there, nothing! Only rich students who didn’t pass in mgimo and by mistake came to sharaga! When I transferred to another university, I went through all the circles of hell, the documents were redone 4 times! Lots of mistakes!! The documents were delayed for almost a month with translation, the rector could not sign anything! The dean's office is in complete confusion with the documents!!! They dragged it out so long that at another university they were shocked by Vavt, they said why did they even enroll there, this is chaos! For my father, all this was the last straw! I decided to completely leave the fire inspectorate, because the norms are rarely observed there, especially in the school building! The problems began in the 3rd year, they began in the English department, because... I took it with my first tongue. Before that ...
Show in full...and there were no problems with the subjects at all! Suddenly, closer to the exams (to the session), they began to intimidate us with the State Academics in English! During the winter session, they kicked everyone out, after the exam they offered additional classes, 2500 for 1 Academic hour, it was a waste of money and time! The teachers themselves don’t really know English, their pronunciation is disgusting, Ponamareva alone is worth it, she’s not a woman, but a walking disorder of English, she doesn’t know it at all, Glazkova, also a teacher of this language, only knows how to talk about how she failed as a translator, So you can go through almost all the teachers, ending with Devina, who, all smoked from the Vavt toilet, immediately goes to classes. At first I didn’t understand why I started having problems with the language, because my tutor from Moscow State University said that English. I know well, as a translator, I can easily work, there are small shortcomings, but still! The English department stubbornly did not give me an exam, they say, you have memorized everything, but it’s not a fact that you will remember it in a week (but I learned all the definitions and material like poetry, answered all their questions and even more, questions completely unrelated to the topic ). soon I got to the rector's retake, the rector said: “Pay 1,600,000!” I answered “No.” As a result, back in September, 3 years before the whole story with English, my budget place was sold, and I found myself in a hopeless situation! So How, who else, through connections, was already clearly vying for my place! I transferred to another university and don’t regret it!

Hello, I want to tell you about the educational institution where I study, about the All-Russian Academy foreign trade. I'm a first year student. I'll start with the positive aspects of the training:
1. There are many good teachers who understand the subject and are able to present it in a clear and interesting way. These are, as a rule, teachers who teach your major subjects.
2.Foreign language. Yes, the academy has a strong foreign language. My first language is English. I like that all the teaching is clear and structured. Separately there is general English and legal English. Language groups are usually 5-7 people.
3.Excellent sports complex, new, beautiful, modern. You can choose to exercise in the pool, cardio room, gym or games room. Classes are held more for yourself, as if going to the gym. Really, really great.
Now let's move on to the unpleasant, to the minuses:
1. In non-core subjects, the learning process is purely formal, the attitude of the lecturer and students is appropriate. The lecturer lectures on his material, knowledge is not added from this, we formally make presentations to earn points and receive credit automatically. I don’t know if this can be called specifically ...
Show in full...nus of the university, this situation happens everywhere, and it doesn’t even entirely depend on the university. This fact is just very upsetting. These lectures are boring and useless.
2. For me, the obvious disadvantage is the following. When I came here, I expected to meet smart, interested guys. It seemed like such a high passing grade... the rest would go to other highly promoted universities that accept just about anyone. It turned out not to be so. In VAVT there is a very low passing score for the paid one, as a result, there are complete idiots who behave accordingly. It is very important to me what atmosphere you study in, and such a situation in a higher education institution seems unacceptable to me. Perhaps for a more academic environment, go elsewhere.
3. Well, the last main disadvantage. We study in an old building, some of the classrooms in which are simply terrible, the desks are broken, and renovations have clearly not been done for a long time. There is no exact information about when the new building will open. But why not hold an open day in the old building, showing the situation from the real side???
Conclusion: Probably, knowing about the whole learning process in the summer, when I was deciding where to go, I would have thought several times whether this place was worth it or not. But if we proceed from the opposite, from the situations in other universities, then the choice of VAVT is justified.
1. Some universities are a holiday, fun, sports - this is life. Wrong address.
2. Universities that organize active campaigning for applicants. In fact, it is only a successful marketing company. Not everything that glitters is expensive)) VAVT does not do this, thank you for that.
3. Universities that represent a diverse National composition. I have nothing against it, I know very worthy representatives, but when it happens en masse, as a rule, everything is bad. There is no such thing in VAVT either)
4. At VAVT you will know 2 languages. In universities where you have to choose from economics and law, i.e. on graduation specialty + language, only one, perhaps, can give better) in many other universities insufficient attention is paid to language, and in modern world, it seems to me, knowledge of languages in high level necessary.
I hope my review will be useful for applicants.
Well, these difficult 4 years at the institute under the bachelor's program are finally over
It’s really difficult to study, there won’t be any freebies at all, languages, if you take English right away, they’re terrible, you just have to learn to sit endlessly over books, write unrealistically difficult tests, where you have to learn every word in detail, there are a lot of boring teachers and old-fashioned ones who don’t understand what We now have a bachelor's degree and not a specialty degree
Pros:
Languages for which they have, acceptable location (I live in a student apartment)
Sports complex
A bunch of TVs with crooked news
Free Wi-Fi
In general, 75% of good teachers and about 50% of interesting subjects and their interpretation
Of the minuses:
Lack of parking
In cramped conditions and resentment (wardrobe, dining room, crowds in the corridors)
Repairs, you have to go around and dance with a tambourine, and if you’re lucky with guest workers who live right on the territory of the academy
The reckless teachers were almost hit a couple of times on the territory of the university
Lots of bad teachers
For example, D***** in English can allow himself to go out among a couple to smoke and thinking that an air freshener solves the problem of smoking in the toilet
Bad food in the canteen
An inadequate dean's office would fire everyone there; they don't want to work in a madhouse ...
Show in full...!!!
In general, the institute is strictly for those who know why they came there, with the rest you can put up with it, there is plenty of inadequacy everywhere, but there is not enough space, there are classes in Khimki, the left bank...
Minimum free time, poor organization of everything else except education and sports
They're recruiting a lot of people, people are hogging it
The scarf is exorbitant in price now
Either you love VAVT and he loves you
Either he brazenly has you unilaterally
Deductions, transfers...
Thank God I finished and can forget this terrible dream
And think about the future

Few people know about VAVT, since the university is quite intimate and the after-school training program began only in the late 90s; the rest of the time the university was aimed at training the highest echelon of personnel with higher education.
So, about the university:
1. It will be quite difficult to enroll in a budget program; the main thing is to cross the threshold for commerce. Learning is difficult, really difficult. There are a lot of expulsions due to poor academic performance, mainly in languages and mathematical disciplines. But if you want to learn and try, but things don’t work out, they will help you. There is a point-rating system; you won’t be able to study for the whole semester and learn for the session. Some students took the retake precisely because of this, having written the exam with a high score and not reaching the minimum.
2. The training is conducted by really good teachers, many of them teach not only as theorists, but also as practitioners, most of them worked in large companies, both Russian and foreign, in ministries, etc. Studying is difficult, but interesting; without self-preparation it is unlikely that you will be able to pass above “good”.
3. Apartment-type dormitories, ~6 people live in one apartment, located within transport accessibility from the Academy. No cockroaches, furniture and remo ...
Show in full...nt quite new.
4. There’s a problem with parking, there’s nowhere to park if you don’t arrive to the first couple: (the same, in principle, as with places in the dining room.
5. Student life is less varied than in many other universities, but believe me, you most likely will not have time for it. There are many sports sections, in physical education you can choose where you want to practice.
It seems like everything)
I'm finally finishing my master's degree at VAVT. During my master's degree, I did not experience a single positive emotion. The training program has been put together somehow. All or almost all subjects in the master's program are either complete waste and about nothing, or a repetition of the bachelor's program (I also took it at VAVT). It even got to the point that in one subject (MEP) we took the same thing as in the bachelor's degree. The questions on the exam were also exactly the same.
The attitude of the teachers is very strange. The program is designed so that classes are held in the evening (19:00-22:00) so that you can combine study with work. At the same time, teachers do not understand and do not accept absence from classes due to work because, in their opinion, “first of all, you are a student.”
The assessment system at the university is quite subjective, that is, it is based on the personal attitude of the teacher towards the student, and not on accumulated knowledge.
The English department is absolutely non-pedagogical in its attitude towards students. For example, at the state exam, the attitude towards students depended, among other things, on their place of work (when my classmate said that she was not working in her specialty, the commission laughed).
Special mention t ...
Show in full...It also deserves the way I wrote the WRC. My scientific adviser and head Department of Private Law - absolutely tactless people expressing their unflattering opinion about me directly to my face. For example, I don’t think it’s right to ask a student, “But your parents probably pay for your studies? Aren’t you ashamed in front of them? Or do you pay for them yourself?” In response to the fact that I was crying myself, I heard “I doubt that you are able to earn enough to pay for training at VAVT.” I consider such an attitude and such words to be the height of indecency and unpedagogical behavior, especially from the head of the department.

Many, upon hearing the name of the university, say: “What is this? A highway university? Probably some kind of sharaga.” Passing score for my department's budget international law"road" was 274 points for three subjects. Draw your own conclusions. There are many pros, there are also a lot of cons, I’ve been studying for a month and a half and haven’t definitely decided whether I like it or not. The teachers are very different. Some objects make you want to hang yourself on some objects because of the load, some you also want to hang yourself on, albeit out of boredom, some are really interesting. I would like to mention languages. I myself am learning Spanish from scratch, I can already write a decent-sized story about myself, about my friends, about my family, and describe the room. Recently, Mexican students came to the university for a conference, and in November, they say, students from Spain will come. Student life is quite meager, but I was never particularly interested in it. Once a week classes are held in the building at the River Station, and this is one of the main disadvantages of the university. Another disadvantage is the schedule. On one day we were given three pairs of tongues in a row from 14.30 to 19.30. The university is small, the queues for the cloakroom and the canteen, where the food, by the way, is disgusting, are colossal. A new spectacular building is being built, the sounds of ...
Show in full...The teachers and builders accompany the entire training process, and the old building itself is, to put it mildly, ugly from the outside. Everything inside is decorated, but there is no chandelier, like in the same RANEPA. Chamber university. Now about the hostel. There are few places, this year they gave 7 to the MPF. I was lucky to be one of these seven. The dorm is amazing. No insects, new furniture, bathroom and kitchen for two or three rooms (apartment type). The hostel is located in Troparevo. It’s a bit far from the university, but the area is gorgeous. It’s easy to breathe, all the shops are at hand and, which is very pleasant for me as a girl, it’s relatively safe here. Mothers with strollers walk until nightfall, there are playgrounds everywhere, no fuss, it’s not at all scary to come back in the evenings.
This is my first impression. Let's see what will happen next.
Good afternoon I am the mother of a first-year student who entered the MPF budget in 2018 without connections or acquaintances. For all applicants I will say that it is realistic to apply, the only condition is good Unified State Examination points. Despite the fact that my daughter was 130th on the list by the end of the admissions campaign, we made it to wave 1, where we recruited 26 people. My daughter’s total score, taking into account individual achievements, was 285 points. Therefore, if you are far from the enrollment limit, do not take the original and despair. The top of the list usually goes to MGIMO, HSE, etc. The most important thing is to believe and hope. If you’re really worried, you can call the admissions office and find out what the situation is. But it is better to do this in last days reception company. After admission, there was a language test, where the daughter was offered to go to the VAVT-RANEPA network program, which is designed for those who chose French as their main language. My daughter agreed, but I’ll immediately tell those who plan to do the same. Mon, Fri classes at VAVT, Tue-Thu at RANEPA. Good luck to all!
Good afternoon. A couple of years ago I graduated from this institution. I formed a neutral, rather even negative, opinion.
And so, in fact, after graduation, people leave practically knowing nothing. During my studies, I did not obtain even the minimum knowledge required for a bachelor's degree in this specialty. The only knowledge that can be obtained is knowledge foreign language, and only if it’s not English and if you’re lucky with a teacher. English leaves much to be desired, since all template tasks and answers must strictly correspond to the answers that teachers have (even translations of sentences/texts), otherwise it is considered that the answer is given incorrectly. The rest of the languages depend on the teachers, but, in general, I was lucky with another language and I actually managed to learn it and now I have the opportunity to communicate at a free level.
They do not provide knowledge in other subjects. Teachers read either from their book or from lectures, and make slides. Only 5 percent of the entire teaching staff can explain what, how, where, why and where. And also why. Because some say that’s what’s written in the program.
The student will not receive any help/assistance under any circumstances. ...
Show in full...situations.
Even the schedule is published only on Friday, so it’s difficult to plan anything for the week. Let’s even take the simple matter of making an appointment with a doctor. The schedule is not stable, so on one Monday couples can be from 9 to 12, and the next week from 14-19. The entire course wrote a complaint to the rector, but as a result, no action was taken by the administration.
The most everyday thing, the dining room. Even she caused a negative reaction. You can't go to the dining room after 11. All tables are always occupied. The food is also specific. Expensive and low quality. The dishes are not covered, so hair gets caught in them.
In conclusion, I would like to write that Vavt also taught me a lot: stress resistance, tolerance, humility, selfishness and not giving a damn.

I received my 2nd education at VAVT (first education at MEPhI).
I would like to express my view on the level of education at VAVT. At our faculty, groups were formed according to the level of foreign language proficiency (1-5 grades of English, several groups German language). More than half of the students were graduates technical universities by first education, some of the students were teachers of English and/or German by first education (separate groups were formed from them). In my opinion, the Academy provided decent English language training for its students, as much as can be taught in 2.5-3 years to graduates of technical universities who have never studied in language schools.
For my part, I would like to express my gratitude and immense respect to K****** I.F. English teacher, who showed considerable patience and understanding towards the students of our 3rd group. Having subsequently found myself on business trips from VO Tyazhpromexport to live sites in India (construction and reconstruction of ferrous metallurgy facilities), conducting negotiations, discussing the terms of contracts and the nuances of projects, I appreciated the attempts of K****** I.F. drive English into our technical heads ...
Show in full... Yi language. Also, when working at VO Tyazhpromexport, and then at JSC Atomstroyexport, it turned out that the core subjects at the Academy were really read well and to the point. Teachers of the Department of Technology of Foreign Trade Transactions (Foreign Trade Transport Logistics, International Freight Forwarding and Documentary Operations in Foreign Economic Activity, Transport Operations in International Trade, etc.), Department of International Private Law, Department of Finance and Currency and Credit Relations provided the opportunity to learn the specifics of the subjects and apply them on practice. Professionalism in the presentation of the material X****** K.N., R***** D.V., R******** M.G., B******** S .IN. I appreciated other teachers only when I encountered problems in live work. I would confidently recommend training at VAVT to specialists dealing with the construction of facilities abroad, specialists involved in the development and execution of contracts, specialists associated with foreign trade transport logistics, that is, specialists engaged in “live” work.
But I would not recommend training at VAVT for specialists who do not plan to work in the field of foreign economic activity.
