History of USSR :)

My institute.

I am a student of Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. Its informal name is Phystech. It is a leading Russian university, originally established in the Soviet Union. It prepares specialists in theoretical and applied physics, applied mathematics, and related disciplines. The main MIPT campus is located in Dolgoprudny, a northern suburb of Moscow. However the Aeromechanics Faculty is based in Zhukovsky (my hometown), a suburb south-east of Moscow. On the picture below you can see the building of  The Department of Aeromechanics and Flight Engineering which is situated in my hometown Zhukovsky. I attend it almost every day. It is interesting to note that I live near my institute and a university campus. It takes me only 5 minutes to get to the institute, so I save a lot of time, being so close to it. As a result, I have much more time to study.

The word "phystech," without the capital P, is also used in Russian to refer to Phystech students and graduates. In MIPT I met a lot of interesting people from different parts of Russia and other countries. In our institute you can see students from Belorussia, Ukraine, Vietnam, Burma, France and India. All students are clever and friendly. And we spend a lot of time all together. 

About myself.

Hello! My name is Elena. I'm 20 and I'm a student.

It's my first blog, but I will try to do it interesting and probably useful for someone who has the same interests as me. My English is not ideal, so I can make some mistakes. But I hope that after a time I will know English better then now. So let's have a chat and comment our blogs. Hope to hear from you soon!;)
