Military Law Academy named after Kutafin. Moscow legal institutes: list, ratings, faculties and student reviews. First Moscow Law Institute. Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia

A graduate of this university: So, MGYuA them. O.E. Kutafina is "the best law school in the country", as they will tell you at the bottom open doors in this establishment. Loud statement, isn't it? But let's figure it out ...
A little about myself, I am a graduate of one of the institutes of this university (not an institute of law, it is considered much less prestigious in comparison with the others). MGUA I
I graduated only a few years ago with honors (state employee), so the information that I will give, I am sure, is relevant to this day. In my review, I will try to dispel the pretentious speech about the exclusivity of this institution and present the applicants with a real picture of what is happening. Whether to act or not is up to you.
In my review, I will list point by point important aspects, which you should take into account if you want to study at this educational institution and about which no one of the "barkers" at the open house will tell you about, and as I tell you I will dispel all the myths about the University.
1) "Moscow State Law Academy is prestigious" - this expression works only in legal circles and only on the territory of Moscow and the region. People who do not have a higher legal education or live a little further than the Moscow Ring Road from "Nerezinova" will think that you are studying at the Moscow FYuA or at a technical school that mimics this famous private university.
2) "The teachers at the Moscow State Law Academy are the best in Russia" - although in fact, they are very diverse, but in general they are divided into 4 types:
a) Luminaries of jurisprudence and strong lawyers who have rich practical experience and excellent knowledge of the subject. These are your bros, there are about 20 percent of them in the university, listen and memorize their every word, they can teach you something.
b) Teachers who have not worked a day by profession, and therefore are an audio version of the textbook. You can listen to them if you are too lazy to read the textbook, it is better not to ask them questions, they do not know, therefore they are angry. (their percentage is 30)
c) Practicing lawyers who do not know how to teach. Listening to them is interesting, perhaps sometimes useful, but they most likely will not help you understand the subject, since they do not have pedagogical skills. (another 30 percent)
d) Complete students are "teachers" who generally do not understand how they ended up here, as a rule they do not know the subject at all, but problems with passing are 100% guaranteed to you. Get ready to answer questions about the secrets of the Dyatlov Pass (somewhere on administrative law) or quote their anti-scientific monographs. However, do not worry, you will be assessed from the ceiling anyway. (such unfortunately 20 percent)
3) We pass from teachers to the educational process. There is no worse educational process than at the Moscow State Law Academy anywhere in the world. Blame it all:
a) "In Moscow State Law Academy, 100% attendance" - an inexplicable other * ne on attendance, supported by a semi-fascist system of detentions. Let me give you an example of how it works: let's say you were driving to class and you were hit by a visiting taxi driver at the crossing, your legs were broken and you were in the hospital for a week. So, despite the validity of the reasons for your absence from class, you will work out every missed class. At the same time, workouts (which are officially called consultations) are held in the evenings in the main building. That is, you need to come several times in the evening for interrogation to the teacher on a missed topic. At the same time, prepare to wait in line from an hour to four to get to his office to talk about what you have learned in the material. I understand that for a person unfamiliar with this system, all of the above sounds like complete nonsense, but this is reality and you will feel all this hell on yourself as soon as you miss the first seminar. Also keep in mind that, in addition to work passes, you may be sent for an unsatisfactory answer at a seminar, being late, "did not come out face", in general, in the "best law school in the country" this tool is actively used as a punishment. In addition, if you do not get points (which will be discussed below) for the semester, then get ready to work out.
b) The ball-rating system is the worst student assessment system out of all possible. She turns every workshop into a point-earning mine, where miners push each other to compete for an extra point. If in essence, the teachers give you points for the answers at the seminars, if you do not answer, then they do not. If you didn't get 40 points in a semester, go to detention. That is, in addition to attendance, another point of pressure on the student is his obligation to respond. Sometimes, when there is nothing to say at a seminar, but for the sake of points you need to say something, you have to talk complete nonsense, just to get the coveted point.
c) Schedule. The fact is that the university is simply not designed for the number of students who study there. There are not enough teachers or classrooms. Get ready for one couple in the morning, one at lunchtime, one in the evening. with breaks for 2-3 hours. And also classes at New Year, Victory Day, Easter and other days off.
There will be problems with the session, exams will be in a day, it will be physically impossible to prepare for them, given the requirements of the teachers and their unwillingness to delve into the difficulties of students' lives. (if they have a lot of difficulties too, the university strictly punishes them for the slightest delay and other jambs)
d) The backward system of teaching, which consists in retelling by you at the seminar the information obtained at the lectures. All this is diluted with dull reports of classmates and mournful presentations. There are some teachers who make the seminars more interesting, but these are only those who are listed in paragraph "a" of part 2 of my story.
e) The volume of the student's work. It is better for people with an excellent student's complex not to enter the Moscow State Law Academy, they will break their psyche. The work programs developed at the university are designed for superpeople who should be able to read the lecture notes, 3 paragraphs of the textbook, legislation on the topic, judicial practice, a couple of important monographs, plus solve from 1 to 20 legal problems in one evening. All this will be given to you at home in only one subject (+/- depends on the teacher). If you want to fulfill all the requirements of the curriculum, forget about your personal life, friends, leisure, etc. My advice to you is to forget about the curriculum, learn to quickly navigate the topic and peep at the textbook at the right time, get used to writing off written assignments that you will distribute among the group. As a result, the quality of the knowledge gained is seriously affected, since they require you to know everything that is a priori impossible, and as a result of applying the policy of "survival" you simply cannot always isolate the main thing in the topic.
f) In groups of 30+ people, for obvious reasons, the learning process is negatively affected.
4) Extracurricular activities at the Moscow State Law Academy are quite diverse, you can go to museums and scientific circles, and become a Mr. or Miss Moscow State Law Academy at a beauty contest, become a member of the student council of your institute, go to the sports section. But in fact, all this activity is tasteful - that is, all events (except for Miss and Mr. MSLA) gather very few people, in addition, the university does not like to help students with amateur performances. As a result, you can find something to your liking, take your time with something, but you are unlikely to get the "WOW" effect, the organization of any event does not rise above the "satisfactory" mark.
5) Beggarly scholarships, when I was studying was 2,500, now, I heard 2,000, I would not be surprised if in a couple of years it will be lowered to 1,500. "Raise" is recalculated every year and revolves around the amount of 10,000 rubles. However, to receive an increased scholarship, it is not enough to be an excellent student, it would be nice to win the All-Russian Olympiad and, at the same time, occupy a good position in student government. And that is not the fact that you will get it. There is also an annual lottery called material aid. Even if you drive to the university in your Bentley, you can always write a statement stating that you are a rogue and your plight will be helped by a university in the amount of 2 to 5 kopecks at a time. The winner is determined among the applicants at random.
6) A hostel is a difficult question, if you are lucky - you will, if you are not lucky - you will not get 50-50. If you are not from the Moscow region, the percentage is higher, regional - get ready to wind 100 km there and back every day, but this is in case you are not lucky , I do not know...
7) "The best of the best study at the Moscow State Law Academy" - state students at the Moscow State Law Academy, as a rule, are good, smart guys from decent families. The level of "paysites" is usually much lower, and the point is not even that the university does not sort out frankly weak students in any way (that is, salivators can also be found in senior years), but that there are openly aggressive elements among them. This is especially true for college students of Moscow State Law Academy. In general, it is not always pleasant to be in the same room with such characters.
8) Lack of a military department - serve after college.
9) The technical equipment of the Moscow State Law Academy raises many questions. In the main rooms where various events are held, there are projectors and desks more or less comfortable, but the remaining 90 percent of the classrooms have not been renovated since the 80s and are equipped at best with desks under the age of 98.
10) Practice - search for yourself ...? Don't want to search? Welcome to practice in admissions committee University, where due to your slave labor
11) There is corruption, but if you are just a normal student, even below average, then you will never encounter it. Bribes help completely discouraged characters pass exams for fabulous sums. Most likely there is nepotism with hostels, but in general this is a rather rare occurrence.
12) "Diploma of the Moscow State Law Academy is very much appreciated by employers" - an extremely dubious statement. At the open day, they will definitely tell you that with their diploma, the employer will beg you to get a job with him, which does not correspond to reality a little more than completely. First, let me remind you that the Moscow State Law Academy is a rather little-known university outside the Moscow Ring Road. Secondly, in Moscow, everything is not so good, because the prestige of the university has long fallen, so when you are employed you will be thoroughly checked for your knowledge. Many graduates change the field of jurisprudence for the field of sales in such well-known firms as McDonald's, Krasnoe and Beloe, Euroset, and someone chooses civil service in the positions of secretaries, interrogators in the police department, junior specialists, archivists (archival librarians). It makes sense to have a diploma from the Moscow State Law Academy only if you are a target person (that is, before entering, you entered into a special contract with a government agency for service after graduation) or you have a dad-deputy who will suit you as a big boss.

Conclusions: Moscow State Law Academy named after O.E. Kutafina is a good university by Russian standards. Thanks to the presence of good teachers and some kind of traditional school, as well as a totalitarian attendance system, you can become a more or less tolerable lawyer. Not every Russian university can boast of such a thing. Did I advise you to enter the Moscow State Law Academy for jurisprudence, most likely yes, but either for a correspondence course or in a targeted direction. The full-time form is not worth it (especially paid), it is better to think about Moscow State University, Finashka, HSE and other universities, where knowledge will give plus or minus the same, but there will be fewer problems in the learning process (there are many colleagues who graduated from these institutions.
Thank you for your attention, it is up to you to decide whether to apply here or not.

The legal profession is to question everything, disagree with anything and talk endlessly.

T. Jefferson

At all times and in all countries it was popular and in demand. In recent decades, the profession in Russia has become prestigious and highly paid: a middle-level lawyer earns twice as much as an average Russian specialist from other industries. Outstanding celebrity lawyers have exorbitant fees, but such professionals are few.

To become a really good lawyer, you need to choose the right university, study hard, and even after graduation, constantly improve in jurisprudence. The laws and rules for their application are constantly changing, so you need to keep abreast of innovations.

Due to the popularity of the profession, law faculties in the 90s were opened in almost all universities - economic, pedagogical, technical and even agricultural. At first, the quality of teaching was at a low level. But gradually the educational process has become of a higher quality. So with a certain effort of a student, he can become a good lawyer, having graduated from the law faculty of a non-core university. Another thing is that employers choose lawyers either with extensive work experience or graduated from a serious state specialized university. The salary of a lawyer also depends on this.

The most prestigious universities Moscow law schools are considered. But it is precisely this advantage that is also a disadvantage for admission. In specialized legal institutes, universities, academies, there is traditionally a huge competition and a high passing score. But the universality of education allows you to find a job in any industry. While, for example, a lawyer who graduated from the law faculty of the Russian State University of Oil and Gas. Gubkin, despite a high-quality education, will only be able to work in the oil and gas industry. It is easier to enter non-state universities, it is cheaper to study, and the quality of education in last years is at a high level. The only drawback is the lack of prestige of the diploma.

In addition to law schools in Russia, you can get an excellent education in foreign universities in the field international relations and rights. But knowledge is required here of English language at the level of a language university.

Rating of the best law universities in Russia remains unchanged for many years. Personnel officers from prosperous Russian companies took part in the compilation of this ranking, assigning points to graduates of various law schools. As a result, the best universities recognized:

  • Moscow State University M.V. Lomonosov;
  • Higher School of Economics, Higher School of Economics;
  • MGIMO;
  • SPbSU;
  • Tomsk State University V.V. Kuibyshev.

If you don’t understand what you are reading from the fifth time, it means that it was written by a lawyer.

Will Rogers

Among non-state universities accredited by the state, the leaders of legal education are:

  • Kazan Academy of Management "TISBI";
  • Krasnodar Institute of Economics, Law and Natural Specialties;
  • Moscow financial Law Academy;
  • Taganrog Institute of Management and Economics.

The economy of Russia in recent years has been successfully moving from a raw material direction to the production of intellectual products, therefore there is an urgent need for specialists in the field of legal support for the protection of information, rights intellectual property and legal support for innovative entrepreneurship.

The legal profession is not only prestigious, but also presupposes a high intellectual level. Indeed, in addition to knowledge of legislation, knowledge of rhetoric, psychology, logic is necessary. Presentable appearance, the ability to analyze and persuade are very important.

Thanks to legal education, many of the country's top leaders were able to make a brilliant career: Vladimir Lenin (Ulyanov), Dmitry Medvedev, Mikhail Gorbachev, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, Ruslan Khasbulatov and many others. In foreign countries, the same trend: the majority of US presidents were lawyers by training - John Adams, Thomas Jefferson Andrew Jackson, Lyndon Johnson, John Tyler, Woodrow Wilson, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, etc. In Cuba - Fidel Castro, in Great Britain - the prime minister -Minister Tony Blair and his predecessors. The Secretary General The Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party is Doctor of Law Xi Jinping. Before Angela Merkel, Germany's Chancellor was a lawyer Gerhard Schroeder. The presidents of the Fifth Republic of France François Mitterrand and Nicolas Sarkozy were also lawyers.

Every lawyer has the potential to become a head of state. Perhaps it will be you. Go for it!

Institutions to help applicants choose to study educational institution... All universities on the list have a specialty "Jurisprudence", and in addition, many other areas in the field of social protection and law.

MNUI

Moscow New Law Institute was founded more than twenty years ago, in 1993. It is a non-state institution. Profiles and areas of study are as follows: jurisprudence, economics, management. According to qualifications, only a specialty and a bachelor's degree, there is no master's degree. Graduates receive a state diploma. All teachers among them 85% have scientific titles and degrees. Drafting-age youths are entitled to a respite from the army. The teaching schedule is flexible, it is practiced. There is distance learning for students.

Moscow New Law Institute has five regional branches (Yubileiny, Bryansk, Sochi, Sovetsk, Tuchkovo). Educational process the branches are also carried out by highly qualified specialists. For example, the branch of the Moscow New Law Institute in the village of Tuchkovo is in no way inferior to the main university, although it is the youngest. Most likely, this is due to the proximity to Moscow.

MNYUI monitoring result

Unfortunately, this institute did not show high results, the indicator is two points out of seven. The average passing score on the Unified State Exam is 48.32, which also does not mean the height of the indicators. The Moscow New Law Institute does not provide for budget seats.

At MNUI, 2534 students study at the same time, of whom only six people are full-time, which is explained by the high tuition fees. The part-time form is paid for by a smaller amount, so there are 51 students in this department, which, of course, is also not enough. The rest study in absentia, it is even cheaper. Among the huge number of universities that train future lawyers, you can choose a more prestigious one than MNYUI. The Moscow New Law Institute is not among the best Moscow universities.

SPMUI

The Ministry of Education and Science carried out monitoring, on the basis of the conclusions of which it can be said that this is a worthy university. It is quite young, founded in 1992, and not large - only 331 students attend the First Moscow Law Institute. The rating result is six points out of seven, not bad. On the exam, the average passing score on admission is also higher - 64.01. There is no budgetary education at this institute either. The First Moscow Law Institute is a non-state institution with rather expensive training.

Nevertheless, students prefer to study full-time, there are 183 of them in this department, the rest are almost equally divided for part-time and part-time departments. Moreover, not all students of this university are Russians, the institute willingly accepts visitors from abroad to study. At first, humanitarian and socio-economic subjects are studied here, and in subsequent courses - general professional disciplines and highly specialized ones. After graduation, graduates are easily employed in the courts, internal affairs, prosecutors, notaries and security services, the legal profession and many other organizations, regardless of whether they belong to the state or not. It makes sense for applicants to think about and choose this particular Moscow law institute.

Student Reviews

After reading the reviews, the general impression is that students love their university, and graduates remember it warmly. Many people write about quality distance education, which turned out to be at its best: a convenient form for teaching adults and busy people. Teachers give detailed advice, if questions arise or difficulties are encountered, there is no refusal.

They also write that textbooks and manuals contain material presented in an understandable and accessible language. Mandatory verification tests comfortable. A high level of knowledge is noted due to well-thought-out programs. There are many such constructive reviews, but most of them contain gratitude to the teachers for the fact that the graduates did not regret their choice - the First Moscow Law Institute gave graduates a ticket to real life.

FinUniversity

The Financial University has a law faculty in its composition, which trains lawyers of the same highest quality as banking specialists who received a diploma from this university. The university has twenty-four faculties, twelve subordinate institutes, two higher schools and four laboratories. Education is given here by innovative technologies, where the system of continuous education is encouraged, including pre-university training, and retraining, and a second HE.

The rating of this university is very high - class "B" (it should be noted that class "A", which means an exceptionally high level, was received only by Moscow State University). FinUniversity received six points out of seven from the Ministry of Education and Science, which is also a very high mark. It should be noted that not every educational institution from those represented by Moscow legal institutes will enter the BRICS countries. This university entered. The average USE is very high at 79.2. Not all Moscow law schools select students so carefully. By the way, 24208 people study them at the same time at the university. There is military department... Hostels are provided.

IFLA

This is a financial and legal university, in the past an academy, now a university. It was founded in 1990, but in this short time it turned out that other Moscow legal institutions are very serious competition for this university: the rating from the Ministry of Education and Science is two points out of seven - not enough. The average passing score is also not very high: 54.92. However, the Moscow University of Finance and Law is considered the best among the accredited non-state universities. It's because this institution gives students thirty-eight specialties plus twelve postgraduate specialties.

There are bachelor's, specialty, master's degrees. Undergraduates receive practice in the IT and financial and legal clinic of the university, where they advise everyone free of charge. There is a respite from the army. 11616 students study at a time, most of all in the correspondence department - 9032. The university has ten branches in different cities of the country. For example, the Vladimir branch of the Moscow Law Institute (University), established in 2002, is working to achieve world standards for the quality of education, like the rest of the branches.

RAAN

The Russian Academy trains highly qualified specialists - the legal profession and notaries. Students receive a state diploma, therefore they always apply for a well-going career in law. There are bachelor's and master's degrees in the specialties "International Commercial Arbitration", "Notarial Activity" and many others.

There is also a graduate school. In addition, lawyers-translators and professional notaries are trained here. The rating from the Ministry of Education and Science is five points out of seven, which is a good result. The average passing mark is quite high - 63.58. There are only 281 students, and there are not much more correspondence students among them than full-time students.

MIEP

The university is not state-owned, but it is accredited by the state. Founded in 1992. It is considered one of the leading educational institutions providing legal and economic education. Many Moscow law institutes do not provide students with the same opportunities that the Institute of Economics and Law provides. This includes training, internship abroad, and international programs. The technical equipment is also on top.

Qualifications - bachelor's and master's degrees, a second higher education is given, there are both full-time and part-time education, distance learning. The Ministry of Education and Science rated the work and equipment of the university four points out of seven. The average passing score is 56.72, for full-time students - lower. 993 students are studying, including 795 in absentia. There are a lot of branches throughout Russia - thirty-three.

MGLA

The Kutafin Moscow Law Institute is state academy, formed in 1931. The academy's profile is purely legal. This is the leader of all law schools in the country, despite the fact that the Ministry of Education and Science gave only four points out of seven. Many budget places- last year it was 450, with the highest passing score - 81.75, and for the budget - 89.87.

This means that only a very purposeful applicant will be able to enter here even for a paid form of study. The university has an excellent technical base. This is where forensic experts of the highest qualifications come from. There are postgraduate, bachelor's, master's, advanced training courses, preparatory courses. The total number of students is 7,241, of whom 4,098 are full-time students, that is, a lot. There are good hostels in Moscow and in four branches - Vologda, Kirov, Magadan, Orenburg.

Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is a university established in 1975. Here, in one direction in the magistracy and in the bachelor's degree, and the specialty is aimed at seven areas. Thirteen faculties prepare highly qualified professionals for the internal affairs bodies.

The specificity and focus imply a certain closeness of this educational institution. It does not participate in the ratings; it has its own commissions. MU MIA provides an opportunity to obtain vocational secondary education. 323 students study. The hostel is good. The university has two branches - in Ryazan and Staroteryaev (Ruza).

MUGU

This university is focused on training public administration personnel, and, accordingly, it is strong in this university. In addition to jurisprudence and public administration, work is carried out here in the field of management. Eleven areas of undergraduate, ten - magistracy and five postgraduate specialties are provided for the entrant.

Traditional classical education is skillfully combined with innovative approaches, so the university confidently takes a place in the top five among non-profit universities. Business and law is one of the most demanded areas of study. The Ministry of Education and Science nevertheless assessed the university's performance indicator at four points out of seven. The average passing mark is 53.62. The university has 2,151 students, most of all in correspondence - 1,248.

In 2016, the Moscow State Law University named after O.E. Kutafina (Moscow State Law University), one of the leading law schools in Russia, celebrated its 85th anniversary.

From 1931 to the present day, a long way has been passed from the Central Correspondence Courses of Soviet Law, which, after consolidation and several renaming, turned into an authoritative educational institution that trains lawyers - the All-Union Correspondence Law Institute (VYUZI), to the flagship of domestic legal education. Many of those who today make up the country's legal elite studied here. Being a University graduate is not only honorable, but also authoritative.

Moscow State Law Academy is not just an educational institution, but a real Alma Mater for students. Students receive fundamental theoretical knowledge, practical skills and, equally important, the spirit of the profession. They educate the moral qualities of real lawyers: purposefulness, the ability to lead a discussion, love for people and their work. It is this approach that allows us to educate real professionals in their field and the successors of the long traditions of legal education. Undoubtedly, this is the merit of the teaching staff of the University, its "golden fund".
A 1978 VYUZI graduate, State Secretary, Deputy Head of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, Alexander Torshin, recalls his mentors with awe: “Our teachers did not only give knowledge. They instilled a taste for the legal profession. This is not a casual attitude towards a person. The approach was almost individual. When the professors came out, it was immediately clear that these were the inhabitants of heaven. The qualifications were such and the lecturing art was at such a level that you immediately understood: there is a master in front of you! "

During its activity, the University has trained and graduated over 180,000 specialists with higher legal education. The University is proud of its graduates, including many famous, distinguished lawyers and outstanding scientists.

Over the years, prominent Russian jurists have worked at the University: Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, laureate of the Presidential Prize, co-chairman of the Association of Lawyers of Russia Oleg Kutafin, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, laureate State Prize USSR Vladimir Kudryavtsev, professors Anatoly Vengerov, Mark Gurvich, Boris Zdravomyslov, Yuri Kozlov, Polina Lupinskaya, Valentin Martemyanov, Stepan Mitrichev, Vladimir Ryasentsev, Valentina Tolkunova, Zinovy ​​Chernilovsky, Maria Shakaryan, Anton Vasiliev and other legal scholars.

Today, the educational process and research work at the University is provided by 14 institutes, 3 branches, 31 departments. The University has more than 20 scientific schools and directions. The teaching staff numbers over 890 teachers, including one Corresponding Member Russian Academy sciences, at least 180 doctors and 520 candidates of sciences, 30 honored lawyers of the Russian Federation, 13 honored scientists of the Russian Federation, more than 70 honorary workers of higher vocational education Russian Federation.

About 13,000 students study at the University at the same time, over 400 post-graduate students and applicants, 350 foreign citizens are being trained. The process of teaching students in accordance with the requirements of the present time is in constant development.

The development of legal education follows the path of profiling. In this regard, truly unique areas (corporate, competition, sports law) are developing at the Moscow State Law Academy, new Institutes are being created in which students are trained (Institute of Business Law, Institute of Contemporary Applied Law, Institute forensic examinations and others), which have no analogues not only in our country, but also abroad.







1931 was a turning point for correspondence legal education in the RSFSR.

There was a shortage of legal personnel in the country. Until that time, the training of lawyers by correspondence was carried out at the faculties of Soviet law, the largest of which was the faculty at Moscow State University (formed in 1927).

On March 21, 1931, at the collegium of the RSFSR People's Commissariat of Justice, it was decided to transform the former faculties of Soviet law into independent institutions.

On June 1, 1931, the Statute on the Moscow Institute of Soviet Law was adopted. The first director of the Moscow Institute of Soviet Law was P.I. Knock. At the same time, the Collegium of the NCJ of the RSFSR decided to organize correspondence courses for the training and retraining of lawyers.

The organization of legal universities and training of personnel of justice workers were considered at the 5th meeting of leading officials of justice on July 18, 1931. The resolution adopted at it noted that "for the speedy training and retraining of personnel of workers of Soviet justice without interrupting them from their direct practical work," correspondence courses in legal education should be organized as part of the Moscow Institute of Soviet Law.

On December 26, 1931, the Collegium of the People's Commissariat of Justice of the RSFSR adopted the Regulation on correspondence education in Soviet law. According to this document, the guide correspondence education was carried out by the Central Correspondence Courses of Soviet Law, which were equated to the correspondence legal university, and in the circular of January 13, 1932, they were called the Correspondence Institute of Soviet Law.

On October 21, 1933, the Collegium of the NKJu RSFSR transformed the Central Correspondence Courses of Soviet Law into the Central Correspondence Institute of Soviet Law (TsZISP) with the status of the correspondence legal education sector of the Department for Training and Retraining of Personnel of the NKJu RSFSR. The task of the institute included training, retraining and advanced training in the form of correspondence education for judicial and prosecutorial officials, legal advisers and employees of economic and state institutions.

By the decree of the Central Executive Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR of March 5, 1935 "On measures to develop and improve legal education", the institutions of Soviet law that existed at that time were renamed into legal institutions. The Central Correspondence Institute of Soviet Law became known as the Central Correspondence Legal Institute (CSLI).

Later, by the Decree of the NCJ of the RSFSR of July 3, 1936, legal institutions were named legal. The Central Correspondence Law Institute became the Central Correspondence Law Institute (CYUZI).

The Institute had on the territory of the RSFSR 7 sectors with 36 consulting centers and 8 branches: in Kharkov, Minsk, Tiflis (Tbilisi), Baku, Yerevan, Tashkent, Stalinabad, Ashgabat, i.e. actually became all-Union.

In accordance with the Decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR No. 703 dated April 29, 1937, which was not intended for publication, “On the transfer of the Moscow, Leningrad and Kazan legal institutes and the V.I. professors of Serbian "The Central Correspondence Law Institute received a new name, which bore 63 years - the All-Union Correspondence Law Institute (VYUZI).

By the decree of the Collegium of the NKJ of the USSR of October 18, 1940, the All-Union Correspondence Law Academy was annexed to the AUZI. Then it really began scientific work... The first issue of "Scientific Notes of VYUZI" has been published.

In accordance with the order of the Ministry of Higher Education of the USSR No. 421 dated May 18, 1956, an evening faculty was opened in Moscow at the All-Union School of Education.

By 1960, VYUZI had 6 correspondence faculties (Moscow, Kuibyshev (Samara), Krasnodar, Khabarovsk, Gorky ( Nizhny Novgorod), Ivanovo) and 6 training and consulting points (Orenburg, Kaliningrad, Magadan, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Ordzhonikidze (Vladikavkaz).

In 1987, O.E. Kutafin for the first time in Soviet practice high school elected rector of VYUZI at a meeting of the Academic Council (on an alternative basis).

On February 10, 1988, by order of the Ministry of Higher Education of the USSR No. 98, a full-time form of education was opened in VYUZI.

On September 26, 1990, on the basis of the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR No. 974, VYUZI was transformed into the Moscow Law Institute (MYUI) (order of the State Committee for Education of the USSR No. 660 dated October 17, 1990), since the full-time form of education did not correspond to the retention of the word “correspondence” in the name.

On October 6, 1993, the Moscow Law Institute was renamed into the Moscow State Law Academy (in accordance with the order of the State Committee of the Russian Federation for Higher Education No. 245 dated 06.10.1993).

On December 23, 2008, the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1814 "On the perpetuation of the memory of O. E. Kutafin" was adopted.

The main building of the University is located in the historical place of Moscow. The village of Kudrino has been mentioned in chronicles since 1412. Once it was the property of the Novinsky monastery, and before that these lands were owned by the Serpukhov prince Vladimir the Brave, a cousin of Dmitry Donskoy.

In 1764, the Novinsky monastery fell into disrepair, and its lands were transferred for buildings for officers and officials. On the site where the University is now located, there was a city estate that belonged to the nobleman Vysotsky G.P. According to the tradition of that time, the building was a series of interconnected wooden structures.

In 1812, at the time of Napoleon's arrival in Moscow, most of the village of Kudrina burned down. Vysotsky's property also burned down. The owner of the estate was the court adviser I.A. Khilkov. He laid out a garden on the territory of the estate, erected several buildings, which he rented out. Then the property was acquired by Countess Kreutz, and in 1899 it was bought from her by the city.

In 1901, according to the project of the architect Nikiforov A.A. a three-story building for the Moscow real school was built here. It has survived to this day (it houses the first academic building of the University). On the site of the garden, stone residential buildings were erected for teachers and employees of the school.

Over the years, well-known Russian jurists have worked at the University: Vengerov A.B., Gurvich M.A., Martemyanov V.S., Mitrichev S.P., Kozlova E.I., Lupinskaya P.A., Ryasentsev V.A. ., Rovinsky E.A., Titov Yu.P., Chernilovsky Z.M., Shakaryan M.S., Shishov O.F. and many others.

BLACK AND WHITE WAR

The sunsets fell behind the sky
And the century went to rest,
The soldiers played quieter
World War II music
Wars of color - crimson
Wars are the ashes of a candle
Wars from Berlin to Bryansk
War - even shout, do not shout,

And black and white shadows
Long ago closed ranks
On the battlefield
On the field of the scarlet War
Where forget-me-nots bloom now
Where is the memory alive now
Where there is an eternal flame for a day
Will not give up his banners.
