Our students have repeatedly been the winners of “Student of the Year”, “The Best Group”, “The Best Film of the Year in PRUE”, etc. Student creative teams traditionally lead in the REU and are a part of the joint team of the University, representing us in regional and nationwide competitions.
The Department of Management is the legal successor of the general economic department, which was established in the structure of the Moscow State Institute of Economicsat March 1, 1945by the order N50 of All-USSR Committee for Higher Education. The Department was united with PRUE as a part of the Moscow Institute of National Economy in 1961 (now the Russian University of Economics).
At that time students studied the following directions: "Political Economy", "Labour Economics" and "Economic planning". During the Soviet period, departments and divisions were headed by eminent scholars, academicians, government officials.
In 1988, the general economic department was renamed in the Department of Economic planning by the decision of the Board of Institute. Then, a number of changes in srtucture and names has come. At June 25, 2001 by the decision of the Academic Council (Decree № 182 of 13.08.2001), it was transformed into the Management Institute of the Russian Academy of Economics named after Plekhanov. In 2004, all he Institutes of REA gained the status of departments once again, and our Institute gets its present name - the Department of Management. Thus, the listed sequence of transformations clearly exhibits the legal succession of our Department from that one which was established in 1945.
