Siberian State Aerospace University
About University
Siberian State Aerospace University was established in 1960 and has carried different names as the Institute of cosmic technology since 1989, and the Siberian aerospace academy since 1992. In 1996, the academy was renamed after the member of the Academy Mikhail Fyodorovich Reshetnyov. In 2002, the academy got the status of a university and accreditation from the Ministry of Higher Education and Science of the Russian Federation.
The university has a license from the Russian Federal Space Agency to study civil aviation, study mechanical engineering, study humanities, and study technologies. The university carries out basic research in cosmic science and works on its research subjects with local and foreign enterprises. The basic facilities for conducting the university’s research activity are Krasmash (the main manufacturer of the ballistic rockets for the submarines), informative satellite systems (the main manufacturer and producer of the communications satellites, tele-broadcasting, navigation, and geodesy in Russia), and KrasAir (one of the best airlines of Russia).
Today Siberian State Aerospace University prepares highly qualified personnel for the aerospace industry and conducts its research and development activities. In 50 study departments, Siberian State Aerospace University employs 970 skilled professionals who train 7,800 students in 25 aviation and technical specializations. During 55 years of conducting study processes and research activity, Siberian State Aerospace University has trained 30,000 professionals.

About City
Krasnoyarsk is a city in Russia, the largest cultural, economic, industrial, and educational center of Central and Eastern Siberia, and the capital of Krasnoyarsk krai (the second largest region in Russia). It is the largest of the ancient cities of Siberia. Today Krasnoyarsk is the largest industrial center and cultural center of Eastern Siberia, the administrative center of a huge territory, stretching 4 000 km from the North to the South along the banks of the Yenisei.
The city is divided into two parts by the Yenisei. The left bank of the city part, located on the upper terraces of the Yenisei is particularly picturesque. This is the center of ancient Krasnoyarsk. Unique classic period buildings of the XVIII-XIXth centuries have been preserved here.
Every student and city resident can see the beautiful panorama of the city from here as well. It may seem surprising, but Krasnoyarsk is a city of fountains. Currently, there are more than 300 fountains here. The most beautiful one is the light and music fountain, located in front of the Opera and Ballet Theater. The city is full of attractions for young people and international students such as modern museums, Indian restaurants, Asian restaurants, Russian restaurants, food stores, art galleries, cinemas, and recreation areas.
