St. Petersburg State Polytechnical University's Mission Statement: The Saint-Petersburg Polytechnic Institute was founded in 1899 as the largest and most advanced engineering educational institute in Russia. Earl Andrey Gagarin has been chosen the first Rector and was succeeded by a chain of celebrated academicians. Dmitriy Mendeleev, Alexander Popov, Alexey Krylov and other outstanding Russian scholars of the time took active part in the institute's formation and planning of its future. The Polytechnic Institute has been set up as a very special place destined for much more that the ordinary. It was the institution originated with a distinctive character and a promise of high quality. From the beginning the Institute lived up to the aspirations of its founders. In 1910 with regards to its achievements it was given the highest honor to bear the name of Emperor Peter the Great. In years that followed the name of the Institute has been changed several times, but invariably it retained its outstanding position of one of the most highly regarded engineering educational centres. The hallmark of Polytechnic bears significance of the highest standard in teaching and research. The University adheres to the three long established traditions which it believes are of the utmost importance in education: to build every curriculum on a solid background of general theoretic science and mathematics to foster active learning through problem solving and through hands-on experience to encourages a pioneering spirit among its students by providing an environment for exploration. These goals are achieved via a challenging curriculum, instruction by experienced full-time faculty members in comparatively small classes, students' research of their own under guidance by a tutor, for qualified students in their 3rd or 4th year, an opportunity for active involvement in ongoing research projects.
