Where to go to study: St. Petersburg universities

Petersburg education is considered one of the most prestigious in Russia. But each institution has its own strengths and weaknesses. To study was as effective as possible, you need to choose the right university.

Saint Petersburg State University

SPbU is one of the oldest universities in Russia. Its founder is Peter I - an activist who cut a window into Europe. It is not surprising that education at this university is no worse than in European countries.

At the university they study at 22 faculties, so there is plenty to choose from. The university is strong both in the humanities and in the technical sciences. Reviews about the university as a whole are positive, although you can find complaints about the lack of practice at the faculty of journalism.

The University is trying to match its position in the world ranking, so it’s difficult to study here in any specialty, but it’s quite interesting. Passing points are also very high, especially at humanitarian faculties, where there are always many who wish to enter.

Humanities

In addition to St. Petersburg State University, one of the best universities in the humanitarian field is St. Petersburg State University of Cinema and Television. Here you can study both as a journalist and economist, as well as in creative specialties related to cinema. The university has a large base for practical training in all areas, as a result of which graduates achieve great heights, having an education at SPbGUKiT. The only problem that an applicant may have is settling in a hostel, because for some reason there are almost always not enough places.

Medical educational institutions

St. Petersburg State Pediatric Medical University is considered one of the best institutions in the city where pediatricians are educated. On the basis of the clinics that the institute has, practical classes are held for students. It is worth noting that the children's clinic, which is under the auspices of the institute, is considered one of the leading in Russia. However, on the Internet you can find many negative reviews about the provision of services in this clinic.

St. Petersburg State Medical University Pavlova, or, as it is also called, “First Honey”, was founded about a hundred years ago and used to have a reputation as one of the best medical educational institutions. Now, many students argue that equipping the university with equipment for practical classes leaves much to be desired. Nevertheless, it is worth going to an open house day to find out for yourself whether it is worth entering this educational institution.
