The Belarusian-Russian University is a regional institution of higher education of the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation.

We have come a long way in information and development. The University has a half-century history. It was founded as a Machine Building Institute today. It has become a major scientific and educational complex. Every year more than 1,000 young specialists graduate from the University - competent professionals with a high level of education capable of mastering innovative technologies and new equipment. Our graduates are among the most versatile and mobile professionals holding senior positions in different companies and organizations.

The University offers a variety of programs in the field of secondary, higher, postgraduate and continuing professional education. About 20 years ago, we were the first in the region to open the Continuing Education and Professional Development Institute. Today, we are the first to offer distance education in the regional market of educational services.

The University continues to work on creating scientific and industrial laboratories that provide close cooperation between higher education and production. The creation of a unified system "science - education - production" ensures the dynamics of critical components of the pedagogical system and allows adapting general theoretical and general professional training of future specialists for promising areas of innovative production.

Developing cooperation with foreign universities, our University seeks to create favorable conditions for the export of educational services and increase the number of undergraduate and graduate students from the CIS and other foreign countries. Today export of educational services has grown considerably, and the geographic origin of our undergraduates, master students, and postgraduates has widened: China, Iran, Syria, Israel, Turkmenistan, etc.

However, the University is represented, first of all, by its people, a team united by one goal. The University takes pride in its highly qualified teachers and researchers and established scientific schools. Today, recognized schools in the following areas of science and engineering operations at the University: mathematical modeling of engineering systems, control systems for motion modes of wheeled vehicles, metal and welding technologies, machine elements manufacturing technologies, mechanical transmissions of new types, as well as intelligent systems for quality control of products for machine-building production, etc. In our work, we have adopted as an axiom the idea that the success of creating an innovative economy and the knowledge society depends mostly on the integration of education, science, and industry. Today, this idea is not disputed; it is a crucial principle of educational policy in most developed countries, including the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation.

The quality management system of the Belarusian- Russian University was developed, implemented, and certified. The Lyceum, the College, and the University were the first in the country to be certified. It resulted in continuous training of specialists: "Lyceum - College - University - Continuing Education and Professional Development Institute» following the international standard 150 9001:2008, thus improving the effectiveness of educational, methodological, scientific, pedagogical, and innovative activities in the University.
