historical Background

On May 29, 1918 it was decided to open the Moscow Institute of Physical Education at the meeting of the State Commission on Education of the Russian Federation,. This date is considered the birthday of our University.

On August 29, 1919 the first "Statute of the Institute of Physical Education" was approved.

On December 1, 1920 the Russian Government adopted a resolution of the Institute "... as the higher erudite academic institution", which won the right to be called the Central; and since 1921 - the State Central Institute of Physical Education (SCIPE). Under this name it will exist until 1934.

In 1934 the SCIPE was awarded the Order of Lenin - the highest state award of the USSR — for successes and achievements in development of Soviet sports movement, for excellent physical conditioning of students and for good organization of educational process. The name of the institution was changed - it became the State Central Order of Lenin Institute of Physical Education (SCOLIPE).

In 1993 SCOLIPE was converted to the Russian State Academy of Physical Education (RSAPE) by the resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation .

In 2002 the Russian State Academy of Physical Education received the University status and became the Russian State University of Physical Education, Sports and Tourism (RSUPE).

In 2007 RSUPE was declared the winner of the competitive selection of higher educational institutions who introduce the innovative educational programs and was provided with a substantial government support.

In 2011, due to the expansion of training profile, the University was renamed to the Russian State University of Physical Education, Sport, Youth and Tourism (SCOLIPE).

Initially, the University has been located in the former palace of Count Razumovsky at the Kazakova street, 18. In 1970 it moved to a special building complex at Sirenevyi Boulevard.

3 class- 13-00 - 14-30

4 class- 14-50 - 16-20

5 class- 16-40 - 18-10

There can be from 3 to 5 classes during one academic day. Training sessions are held from Monday to Friday.

Classes are held according to the curriculum. Training sessions schedule for each year and training areas are placed on a special stands near the relevant institutions and at the Educational Department page of the University official website umu.sportedu.ru.

There are several forms of the training sessions: lectures and group (laboratory, seminar, practical, methodical). As a rule, the lectures are held for an educational streams. The educational stream includes students of one year or one specialty. Group classes are held for training group or specialization groups.

Each academic year is divided into two semesters, which have serial numbers from the 1st to the 10th, the semester ends with an examination session: summer and winter. During the session is held an interim attestation of students on subjects studied in the semester, in order to assess a level of educational material proficiency.

In the 2006-2007 academic year, the university has introduced a point system of training quality control. A scoring monitoring system of students' progress is one of the components of a credit system, which has been introduced by the Ministry of Education and Science of Russian Federation's order № 215 dated 29.07.2005 "About the innovations of higher education institutions on transition to the credit system."

The scoring system is being introduced to encourage systematic learning activities of students throughout the academic year and to provide control over this activity. The introduction of scoring system is also intended to stimulate the creativity of students, their independent work.

A scoring system is used to control the learning process in all subjects of the curriculum.

It provides intermediate (exam, test, semester control) and current (participation in seminars, homework, examinations, computer testing, preparation and defence of essays, passing of control standards, etc.) monitoring of progress in each discipline. This system does not apply to the final control - final state performance.

For making the final grade for the whole period of the discipline or phase of study, culminating in test or examination, a 100 - point scale is used. A student can earn points in each type of current control and in ntermediate one. Types of current control, their quantity, the number of points accrued in each kind of control over a particular discipline, are determined by leading teachers with the necessary approval of the department. The department also sets dates for each type of control.

In the absence of a student in the classroom for a valid reason (participation in sports events, conferences, exhibitions and other events), in order to support an active extracurricular research or other creative activity of students, as well as to increase the participation of students in interacademic and international events, is possible the maximum points accounting, provided in the frames of discipline for attendance.

Scoring scale of current progress in any discipline should include the possibility of examination assessment / credit without their passing, ie the student should be able to earn up to 100 points in the current progress . On this basis, the total maximum score for all types of current control should be 100 points.

In case the discipline of the curriculum does not provide any exam or test, the interim certification of a student in the discipline is performed in a form of knowledge control of current progress.
