INNOPOLIS UNIVERSITY MANIFESTO ON MEDIUM OF INSTRUCTION

Innopolis University is committed to the highest international academic standards and offers the opportunity to study Computer Science and Engineering in English developing fluency and command of technical and non-technical vocabulary. This is made possible by the University’s international community of staff and students, speaking several foreign languages, and in particular English, on a daily basis: students, professors, researchers and administrative staff. This commitment is reflected on using English as the language of instruction of Innopolis University. All classes, teaching, labs, assignments, exercises and practical material are provided in English. English is expected to be used in the following situations:

• Frontal Classes, including questions
• Frontal Labs, including questions
• Class and labs material
• Technical and non-technical assignments
• Theses and projects
• Written and Oral Exams
• Group Office Hours
• Public Chats related to University life
• Emails to students or colleagues
• Student’s Groups
• Any other document related to education

Being English the officialMedium of Instruction of Innopolis University does not prevent the use of other languages, and, in particular, Russian, in other situations where two or more people share a common language, thus English is not necessary used in situations like informal conversation (questions after classes...), individual office hours, private emails, private chats.
