The main educational programs at Samara University are aimed at training in technology, the natural sciences and the humanities.

The learning process at the university proceeds according to the principle “education through research.” Every year, more than 3,000 students take part in the scientific-research, experimental-design and technological-engineering projects unfolding at the university. 

Thanks to our close integration with the leading industrial centers, our students and graduates can bring their ideas and advanced concepts to life – design a spacecraft, assemble it, launch it into space, and then control it in orbit. They create machinery for research satellites and take part in space experiments. Samara University is one of the select few research-and-education centers in the world to boast its own orbital family of small spacecraft intended for R&D purposes. 

Aside from its aerospace stream, Samara University also pursues scientific research and conducts the training of specialists in the field of cutting-edge biotechnologies, the creation of micro- and nano-devices for the next-generation of electronic and optoelectronic information systems, and the design of materials with pre-set properties. Coursework at the university also entails the study of fundamental social processes, exposure to the theory and practice of the preservation of cultural and linguistic heritage, and training for teaching and research pursuits.
