National Research University of Electronic Technology[2] [3] (Russian: link=no|Национальный исследовательский университет "Московский институт электронной техники" / МИЭТ, lit. National Research University "Moscow Institute of Electronic Technology"[4]) is a Russian technical university in the field of microelectronics, information and computer technologies and one of 29 National Research Universities. University was founded in 1965 and is based in Zelenograd, Moscow (the Soviet Union's center for electronic and microelectronic design and engineering).
The University complex was designed by the architects Felix Novikov and Grigory Saevich and built in 1967-1971. The main administrative building (#1) with library and five lecture halls, the assembly hall (#2) with dining hall, two academic buildings (#3 and #4), and sports complex (#5) of multipurpose arena and swimming pool were built of red bricks and connected by passages in united complex. The decoration of the exterior walls of the library is the white bas-relief (970 m²) "The Becoming of a Homo sapiens" (Russian: Становление человека разумного, Stanovlenie cheloveka razumnogo) completed in 1974 by the sculptor Ernst Neizvestny. The main facades of the main administrative building and the assembly hall are turned to Shokin's Square (Russian: Площадь Шокина, Ploshchad Shokina), named after Alexander Shokin (1909-1988), the USSR Minister of Electronic Industry, one of founders of Zelenograd and MIET.
Shokin's bust is placed in the park between Shokin's Square and sports complex, and Skokin's and Presnukhin's (the first rector) memorial plates are placed on the main administrative building facade.
The university can be also referred to as Moscow Institute of Electronic Engineering in the English language sources, which was its English official name in the 1990s.
