III. Read and translate the text. Our university
Kemerovo State University is not old but it has its own history and rich experience in modern education. In 1949 Kemerovo Teacher Training College became a base for the foundation of higher educational institution – Kemerovo Teachers’ Institute. Later, in 1953, Kemerovo Pedagogical Institute was founded. It was awarded the status of University in 1974. Rector is the head of the University. The administrative work of the University is also coordinated by the vice-rectors. They control the particular area of activity at the University.
The number of faculties and departments at the University is constantly growing according to the demands of modern society. Now there are 12 faculties at the University: Philology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Biology, History, Foreign Languages, Social Psychology, Law, Economics, Sports, Political Sciences and Sociology. Most of the faculties have full-time and part-time departments.
To enter the University it is necessary to write tests (uniform final exams) or to take entrance exams. The applicants are admitted on the basis of their examination results.
The academic year begins in September and ends in June. It consists of two semesters with the examinations at the end of each one. If examinations are successfully passed students get grant.
Training of specialists at the University is based on the combination of teaching and research. All the University students are taught some general subjects such as Foreign Language, Philosophy, the History of Russia, Psychology etc. Besides, every faculty provides a number of various special courses and organizes practical training for its students. Teaching takes place at lectures and seminars. Every student chooses an academic advisor who gives professional consultations and helps with the individual research activity.
There are seven buildings which belong to Kemerovo State University. Some of them, including the main building, are located at the centre of the city, within walking distance from each other. The exceptions are the buildings of Mathematics Faculty and the faculty of Political Sciences and Sociology situated many quarters far from the University campus.
The University provides accommodation for its students who came from different towns. Three student hostels on campus are available only for full-time students; one of them is mostly for married students. The housing is provided for the period of studying at the University.
The University offers numerous facilities for the process of studying. Students can borrow books from the University library. Its Reading Hall stores thousands of books, unique scientific editions, many journals and newspapers. If necessary, students may go to the University Internet Hall or do some work in the Computer Centers. The University comprises some laboratories for students’ experimental work. There are some gyms for the students who go in for sports. Large Concert Hall is available for presenting performances, conducting student festivals and organizing scientific conferences. So the students of the University have a lot of services and facilities necessary for studying and recreation.
After studies students take final examinations and defend the diploma project. A University diploma gives an opportunity for the graduates to find a good job. If a graduate is interested in scientific work he may continue his education in any field at postgraduate level.
