Today, January 25, Lomonosov Moscow State University is celebrating 270 years since its foundation.
On January 25, 1755 (January 12, the Feast of St. Tatiana according to the Orthodox calendar), Empress Elizabeth Petrovna signed a decree on the establishment of Moscow University — the first in Russia. This day is considered the official date of the foundation of Moscow State University and St. Tatiana is now honored as the patroness of education, students and all those who feel that they belong to the university community.
The establishment of the university in Moscow was largely due to the activities of the encyclopedist Mikhail Vasilyevich Lomonosov and his associate, the first curator of the university, Count Ivan Ivanovich Shuvalov.
Initially, education was conducted in three faculties: philosophical, medical and legal.
In Moscow State University named after M.V. Lomonosov more than 45 thousand people from all regions of the country study (in various forms of education). MSU has 43 faculties (21 faculties were created in the last 20 years), 15 research institutes, about 750 chairs, departments and laboratories, Medical Research and Education Center, Scientific Library, 4 museums, Botanical Garden, Science Park, 7 branches.
