University of Tyumen

The development of universal primary education created a desperate need for professional teaching staff, for which reason in 1930 the first Tyumen higher educational institution was founded. Students of the Agricultural and Pedagogical Institute of Tyumen could study agriculture, chemistry, biology and physics.

The UTMN offers various forms of study: full-time, part-time, distance education, master's degree, undergraduate education, graduate, doctorate, advanced training, and second degree.

The second half of 1930s saw the start of academic research. In 1935, an experimental plot was created. Scientific expeditions to the north of the Altai, studies of indigenous northern language and folklore and regional teaching courses for locals took place from 1936-40.

UTMN Graduates work at the largest international companies (e.g. Schlumberger, Lukoil, Sberbank), academic institutions, and cultural organizations. Over 90 percent of our graduates are employed. Our Career Center helps students prepare for their future careers by providing labor market analysis, organizing workshops, and cooperating with enterprises and organizations.
