Переведите со словарем текст. Выпишите в словарную тетрадь все незнакомые слова.

MIPP is one of the first non-governmental higher educational establishments in Russia. It was established in 1991 and twice accredited. It has established a good reputation in the international education system and tries to meet the modern demands of the society and employers.

There are nineteen branches of the institute throughout Russia and abroad as well. The young men and women entering the institute must pay for their studies. The tuition fee depends on the form of education.

There are three forms of higher education in our country: full (day)-time, part (evening)-time and extra-mural.

There are three faculties at the institute: Economics, Law, Second and Extra-mural Education. They are housed in the same building with the library, lecture halls and assembly hall. Being a student of this institute you can take courses in world economy, finance and credit, accountancy, law, management, commerce, insurance, informatics and get a Bachelor’s degree.

Students have many subjects to study: history, philosophy, foreign languages, sociology, logics etc. They learn the foreign language for two years. But those who would like to master the language can continue doing it for four years. Senior students can specialize in civil and criminal law, statistics, marketing, management, finance etc. The basic form of study for an external student is independent work at home.

Thousands of Russians choose the extra-mural (correspondence) form of studies. People living even in the most distant towns and villages of our country can meet with their professors and teachers and openly discuss any issues.

Extra-mural education allows people to study without leaving their jobs. If the “finals” are passed all graduates – full-time, part time and extra-mural receive the same kind of diploma and enjoy equal rights.
