The location in Zelenograd connects the institution to the Soviet-era microelectronics industry that remains active in the region today. Students and faculty work on research projects that often emerge directly from the needs of local technology companies.
The campus is accessible during daytime hours for visitors interested in technical education or Soviet-era architecture. Buildings are located in central Zelenograd and can be reached by public transport.
Zelenograd was designed as the Soviet answer to Silicon Valley and still hosts a concentration of microelectronics companies today. The university uses this proximity and regularly cooperates with neighboring production facilities for hands-on training projects.
