RSREU (up to 1993 Ryazan State Radio Engineering Institute) was founded in 1951. It is located in Ryazan, an ancient Russian town situated on the bank of the Oka-river, 180 kilometers south-east from Moscow. The town has a rich history and is famous for its cultural traditions. The University ranks high among the leading educational institutions in Russia. Since its foundation, the University has trained more than 50 000 specialists. Presently more than 6 500 students are enrolled at the University. The University is a large specialized academic and research center which consists of 5 full-time departments: Radio Engineering and Telecommunication, Electronics, Automation and Information Technologies in Management, Computer Science, Engineering and Economics. The University trains engineers, economists, managers. Bachelor's (23 programs), Specialists, and Master's (13 programs) degrees earned here make a strong basis for future career building.
The University is equipped with up to date academic and research facilities. Educational television, cinema, audiovisual technologies, computer-aided design systems, information technologies, etc., are widely used in the educational process. Our international graduates take perspective and well-paid positions all over the world. The University has its own geographically distributed high-speed corporate network Extranet, including more than 2000 computers located in different buildings and hostels of the University. Internet and Intranet - sites of the University, digital library, and other information resources are also functioning. The University has access to global networks (Internet and Runet) through fiberoptic wire telecommunication channel and uplink. The University possesses all the necessary facilities to provide an effective process of study. Meeting students upon their arrival at Moscow airports is also possible on a paid basis.
In RSREU heterogeneous, territorially-distributed corporate information system was formed, which has access to the global Internet and RunNet, covering all buildings and hostels of the University, used by over 7000 users - students, teachers, staff. The information system provides regular quick access for staff and students to local and global information resources, modern software and application programs and technologies, computing and telecommunications, and liquid program and information resources for the University. Informatization of the University is supported by the Office of Telecommunications and Information Resources, the Center of New Information Technologies, Information and Computing Center, Multimedia center of technical training aids, Center of Information Services. Created, implemented, and widely used automated software and information systems of management are created, implemented, and widely used in the University's subdivision. The University's website is designed, operated, and continually updated(more than 2 million visits per year). Electronic document circulation is implemented.
At the beginning of 1952, we learned that the government's decree organized the Radio Engineering University. This news was taken in with great interest, especially among the youth. The Institute allowed getting higher education in new engineering fields with an exciting and creative job. At this time, the construction of electronic devices and accounting machines factories was coming to an end. Based on the woodworking factory, radio engineering was organized. The construction of radio and oil-refining factories was planned. Students took the learning seriously. They did not miss classes without reasonable excuse. Any of them got a hunger for knowledge and desire to stand the pace. Unselfish and welcoming mutual help was a standard of the relationship. Some difficulties in the studying process emerged because we did not have senior food courses, experience, traditions, examples of theses, projects, and home works. We had to reach much on our own. Despite this fact, we studied not bad, and some of our works in the future found itself useful to younger colleagues.
