Novosibirsk State Technical University NSTU is one of the top ten universities in Russia. It is not only a great educational but also a scientific center of Siberia and the Far East. To start with let’s mention some facts from the history of NSTU. It was founded in 1953 and got the name of Novosibirsk Institute of Electrical Engineering. The same year it opened the doors of two faculties to school leavers of Russia. The name of Professor Georgy Lyshchinsky, the rector of the institute from 1955 till 1990, is well-known not only in Novosibirsk. He did a lot for the development of high level of education and science at the institute. In 1992 the institute gained the status of a university. At present NSTU trains specialists at 11 faculties: Radio Engineering, Power Engineering, Physical Engineering, Aircraft, Business, Electromechanical Engineering, Humanities and others. So today more than 22 000 students from Russia and such foreign states as China and Korea, African countries and Republics of the former Soviet Union study at our university. The number of academic staff is nearly 1000. Tuition period lasts up to 6 years and depends on the qualification: Bachelor of Science – 4 years, Engineer – 5 years, Master of Science – 6 years. NSTU trains students on a full-time and a part-time basis. It also offers distance training. The first- and second-year students obtain knowledge in fundamental subjects. From the third year students take part in scientific work and specialize in some field. Now some words about international activity of NSTU. It has international relations with 12 universities of Korea, China, Great Britain and the USA. NSTU also participates in joint educational and scientific projects. The university has its own campus. There are 8 teaching blocks, 7 hostels, a hospital, two sports centers, a swimming pool and a ski center. High level of education is provided by well-equipped research labs, multi-media classes, rich libraries, computerized information resource centers. It is also necessary to say a few words about foreign language study at our university. The students study English, German or French for at least one year. At some faculties such as Business, Physical Engineering, Humanities students are offered two or more years of foreign language studies. The best students can take an extra course in the language for three years more. Those who want to study English as a second language can attend paid courses, organized by Foreign Languages Department of Technical Faculties. In conclusion we can say that NSTU graduates are mainly highly-qualified specialists and some of them are brilliant scientists known in many countries. 3.5.

Прочитайте текст и проверьте свои ответы из задания 4.3. The System of Higher Education in Great Britain There are 90 universities and 60 other higher educational institutions in Great Britain. Many big cities have a university and a college of higher education. There are also such higher institutions in Great Britain as polytechnics. There are the following main types of universities in Great Britain: ancient, Redbrick and New. There is also Open University. The first group is ancient universities: Oxford and Cambridge. They were founded in 12th and 13th centuries. They are the oldest and the most famous universities in Great Britain. They have a lot of rules and traditions. They have a collegiate system. It means that a university is a federation of colleges. Now Cambridge consists of 20 colleges and Oxford consists of 48 colleges. Each college is largely independent: it has its own staff of teachers, a separate building, its own financing and individual curricula. It organizes term exams, but university is responsible for final exams and for awarding degrees to college students. The next tradition is that some colleges are only for men and others – only for women students. There are also coeducational colleges. The third tradition is that the university tutors teach students one-to-one or in very small groups. Such lessons are called tutorials. Most universities in Great Britain are national universities. That is UK government pays three quarters of tuition fee and a student pays only one quarter of it. If the student’s family income is low the government helps him (her) with the grant. There are also some private universities in Great Britain (for example, Westminster University). Education in such universities is very expensive. Let’s speak about the second type of UK universities – Redbrick universities. The period of foundation of Redbrick universities is between 1850 and 1930.They have a name “Redbrick” because the material used for their construction was red brick. The most famous Redbrick university is London University. It is a federation of 44 schools and institutes. The number of its internal students is over 40 000 and it has also a great number of external students, who come to London only for examinations. The next type is New Universities. New Universities were founded after the Second World War, as a result of Industrial Revolution. After the Second World War UK began to develop its industries very quickly. British plants and factories needed a lot of qualified specialists. That’s why a number of New Universities appeared in large industrial cities, such as Manchester, Liverpool, Glasgow and others. Now a few words about Open University. It’s a very interesting type of university. It started in 1960 for people, who wanted to continue their education, but couldn’t attend classes because they worked full-time and studied only in free time. University provides its students with lecture materials and tests by e-mail, TV and radio programs. Such form of education is called distance training. Every year in October OU students take exams. Now we shall say some words about the degrees you can get at British higher schools. After three or four years of study you can get a Bachelor’s Degree (usually BA=Bachelor of Arts or BS=Bachelor of Science). After one or two years of further study a student can get a Master’s Degree (MA or MS). If students wish to teach at university, they work for a higher degree, a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). 4.6.
