We spend a lot of time to improve the skills of trainers, professors and basketball specialists. To do this, we conduct internships, courses and seminars. It’s important to note that at the department there is an actively working Higher School of Basketball Coaches. We involve leading trainers, doctors, psychologists, managers, judges and other specialists in the educational process.
Postgraduate students, undergraduates and applicants also study at the department. For students who are inclined to scientific work, there is a scientific student circle. These people continue their studies in magistracy and graduate school. They also take part in scientific and practical conferences, publish their works in cathedral and university compilations that are connected with scientific conferences, including works in English language.
With the basic study we offer an opportunity to gain the skills of refereeing with involvement in the judging brigades.
In the women's and men's teams of the basketball department there are numerous prize-winners of the Championship in the First and Higher Division of the SBL. It’s important to note that the women's team is a three-time Champion in the divisions of Moscow.
The men's team of basketball in SCOLIPE is a two-time silver and bronze medalist of the ASB Championship in Moscow Division, It’s also the bronze medalist of the Moscow Student Games Championshipa and the silver medalist of the Moscow Basketball League Division B.

In a while, the chair disintegrated, and there were only 2 specializations that came together - handball and basketball.
Despite the relatively short period of the department's existence, its specialists have already developed programs for the preparation of masters, physical education and pedagogical improvement of specialization students. And there was also developed a program of basic sports (handball) for other students wishing to learn how to play handball.
For a long time, graduates of specialization take prizes and play in the national teams: Denis Krivoshlykov became Olympic Champion, Ekaterina Andryushina won a silver medal of the Beijing Olympics, Vladimir Belov - became a captain of three teams (junior, youth and national).

Since 2002, the chair has been headed by a graduate of SCOLIPE and Moscow State Linguistic University, Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences, Assistant Professor of the Department of Foreign Languages, Master of Sports in Shotgun - E.V. Komov.
Professors of the department help to the sports departments of SCOPLIPE and sports federations with the translations and language training of participants and volunteers that take part in different events and international competitions.
The department has sections of English language, German and French. In 2008, three projects of the department received a Grant of the Priority National Project for the introduction of an educational innovative model.
To increase the motivation of students at the department, some annual events are organized and held:
Since 2008, on the basis of the department, a special center for the preparation of translators in the field of professional communications has been established. Students of the Center study for 3 years and receive a state diploma with the right to conduct professional translation activities in the field of FCC.
The department is a member of the scientific and methodological council of the Educational and Methodological Association for Linguistic Education (non-linguistic universities) of the Moscow State Linguistic University.
The Department of History and Management of Innovative Development of Youth in the Russian State University of Physical Culture, Sports, Youth and Tourism is one of the leaders in training the qualified specialists in the field of youth policy and social work of Russian Federation.
Professors, employees and students of the department hold positions in law enforcement agencies, state and public organisations of physical culture, sports, youth policy at the federal and regional levels.
Due to the scientific, partner relations and strong teaching staff, the Department of Youth policy projection holds one of the central places in the sports industry of Russia.
Students get some practical experience and an opportunity to actually implement their projects, while passing practice in the Ministry of Sport, Tourism and Youth Policy of the Russian Federation, the Olympic Committee of Russia, the Department of Physical Education and Sport of Moscow, the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, the State Duma of the Russian Federation and so on. Due to such big amount of knowledge and practical experience students of the department can
participate in various projects during their studies.
Since its foundation, the students of the department participated in the implementation of the national priority project called "Education", within the framework of which a large number of scientific and methodological works in the field of ensuring youth policy were prepared.
The department, with the support of the Ministry of Sport, Tourism and Youth Policy, organizes the largest scientific forums on the problems of youth policy, civil and patriotic education.
More than 50 000 highly qualified specialists have been trained during the university’s existence. This number includes about 4 thousand foreign specialists from 115 countries. Among our students and graduates there are more than 170 Olympic champions, champions of Europe and the world in whole. These people are: Lev Yashin, Irina Rodnina, Valery Kharlamov, Svetlana Zhurova, Pavel Bure, Alexander Ovechkin, Ilya Kovalchuk, Dmitry Bulykin, Dmitry Sychev, Pavel Pogrebnyak, Dmitry Nosov, Adeline Sotnikova, Aliya Mustafina and many others.
In the early years of the Institute’s existence (1918 - 1930), only some brief information about the history of physical culture was given to the students in the general course of “theory, history and methods of physical education”. The independent subject "history of physical culture" started being formed since the beginning of 30s.
In 1932, the Department of Physical Culture History was created and it was headed by A. G. Ittin. The program of physical culture history was based on the history of physical culture for students. The program consisted of 18 sections, three of which were dedicated to the introduction of this phenomenon, 11 - to the general history of physical culture and 4 - to Russia and the Soviet period in whole.
In 1937, A. G. Ittin translated the book of R. T. McKenzie (USA) called "Physical Exercises in Education and Medicine", which became the main educational tool for students because there were almost no other analogues.
In 1939-1940 Ya. V. Verkhovsky, F.I. Samoukov, I.G. Chudinov protected the first Ph.D. theses on the history of physical culture.
In 1956 the first textbook for technical schools of physical culture "History of Physical Culture" was published.
In 1970, the first textbook on the history of physical culture for medium-sized sports schools was also published.
In 1967 the department prepared and published a monograph called "Physical Culture and Sport in the USSR" about the fifty-year history of the Soviet physical culture movement.
In 1961, a Museum of the institute’s history was opened at the Department.
In 1982, within the department there appeared a new subject: sociology of physical culture and sports. As a result, there was a division of the department into two parts: "management and economics of physical culture and sports" and "history of physical culture and sports". The latter combined two academic and scientific subjects: history and sociology.
For seventy-five years more than a hundred candidate and six doctoral dissertations have been prepared at the department, more than six hundred scientific and methodical works have been published, including textbooks on history of physical culture, educational and methodological manuals on the history and sociology of physical culture and sports and aesthetics of sports for higher and secondary educational institutions of the country.
The course "History of Physical Culture and Sport" consists of three parts: the general history of physical culture and sport; the history of physical culture and sports of Russia, the USSR and the Russian Federation and the history of the international sports and Olympic movement. In 2001, the textbook called "History of Physical Culture and Sport" was published.
In addition to the basic courses, the professors of the department developed some special courses: "civilization and sport", "modern Russia in the international sports and Olympic community", "Olympic education", which are taught at various courses and faculties of the university.
In 2007, a new specialty "organization of work with youth" was introduced.
In February 2008, due to the reorganization of the department, the Department of the Physical Culture History, Sports and Olympic Education was established. Specialty "organization of work with young people" is assigned to the Department of Youth policy projection.
More than 50 000 highly qualified specialists have been trained during the university’s existence. This number includes about 4 thousand foreign specialists from 115 countries. Among our students and graduates there are more than 170 Olympic champions, champions of Europe and the world in whole. These people are: Lev Yashin, Irina Rodnina, Valery Kharlamov, Svetlana Zhurova, Pavel Bure, Alexander Ovechkin, Ilya Kovalchuk, Dmitry Bulykin, Dmitry Sychev, Pavel Pogrebnyak, Dmitry Nosov, Adeline Sotnikova, Aliya Mustafina and many others.
The Department of mass sports directing and art performances was established in 1995. It was headed by professor, candidate of pedagogical sciences - E.V. Kuzmicheva. Students studied in two directions: "mass sports directing and artistic performances" and "sports animation".
As part of its scientific activity, the department published textbooks on the mass sports directing and art performances and on mobile games. It also developed some educational and methodical programs, wrote miscellany of theatrical performances and sport events.
In 1998, the team of authors, headed by Boris Petrov, wrote the world's first textbook on the basics of directing, technology, organization and methods of mass sports and artistic performances.
In 2008, the department of sports and art direction of performances of SCOPLIPE was named after V.A. Gubanov.
7 candidate dissertations have been defended at the department and also a scientific laboratory has been created. Nowadays, it is equipped with the modern research and computer technologies.
Over the period of its existence, the department has trained over 140 specialists, conducted more than 150 for state and public organizations, committees on physical culture and sport, federations of sport kinds.
The history of the department begins in 1929. At different times it is headed by famous scientists - great representatives of culture and education: these are the founder of the department Professor I. Kaluzhsky and also A. Konyakhin, P. Rudik, N. Zhelvaki.
From 1972 to 1978, the department was headed by professor, doctor of pedagogical sciences I. Reshetny. Outlining collective decisions based on knowledge and pedagogical work with athletes helped to revise the learning programs. Methodical manuals and lectures were written, special courses for senior students were developed, a textbook "Pedagogy" for institutes of physical culture and technical schools was published.
From 1982 to 1986 the department was headed by Professor, Chevalier of the Alexander Nevsky’s order - I. Tikhonov.
Since 1986 and up to the present time the department has been conducted by Sergey Neverkovich - Academician of the Russian academy of education, Doctor of pedagogical sciences and Professor.
Under his leadership, new methods of educational process intensification are introduced, as well as new courses and disciplinary directions. Moreover, monographs, methodological programs and textbooks are published.
In 2006, the textbook called "Pedagogy of Physical Culture and Sports" was published. It was based on the concepts of V. Davydov's theory of developmental learning and the methodology of designing written by G. Schedrovitsky.
Employees of the department wrote more than 30 monographs, numerous teaching aids and miscellanies. More than 100 methodological books are published as well as scientific and practical recommendations and programs. Over the past 20 years, about 300 scientific articles have been published, 10 doctoral and also 55 Ph.D. theses have been prepared by specialists from foreign countries
To draw the conclusion, it can be noted that due to the effective work of our staff, we have been awarded by different prestige awards.
The Department of Psychology was established in the Russian State University of Physical Education, Sport, Youth and Tourism in 1930. Peter Rudik founded it. It is commonly believed that the sport psychology as a science appeared after the publishing of his widely known work called "The influence of muscular work on the reaction process".
After the Second World War, the staff of the department published the world's first textbook on psychology for the institutes of physical culture. Moreover, a special textbook for medium-sized sports schools was published as well.
In the middle of XX century sport psychology started being perceived as a necessary educational part of the athletes’ training process.
Nowadays, the Department of Psychology is the base of scientific research in the field of psychology of physical culture and sport.
In the first decade of the 21st century, a magazine called "Sports Psychologist" was published by our specialists and an international scientific and practical conference "Rudikov Readings" was held for the first time.
In the second decade of the XXI century a new specialty "Sport Psychologist" started its work on the basis of the department. The first enrollment of students consisted of 35 people. Also the members of the department joined the Russian Psychological Society.
Today the department considers such scientific areas as “the psychology of man in extreme conditions”, “the diagnosis of athletes’ mental states”, “the psychological climate in sports teams”, “the interaction of athletes and coaches”, “some personal characteristics of an athlete” and much more.
More than 50 000 highly qualified specialists have been trained during the university’s existence. This number includes about 4 thousand foreign specialists from 115 countries. Among our students and graduates there are more than 170 Olympic champions, champions of Europe and the world in whole. These people are: Lev Yashin, Irina Rodnina, Valery Kharlamov, Svetlana Zhurova, Pavel Bure, Alexander Ovechkin, Ilya Kovalchuk, Dmitry Bulykin, Dmitry Sychev, Pavel Pogrebnyak, Dmitry Nosov, Adeline Sotnikova, Aliya Mustafina and many others.
The history of the department begins when laboratory of anatomy and anthropology was established. It was under the leadership of the prominent domestic anthropologist Victor Bunak (1891 - 1979). The first head of the Anatomy department was a famous anatomist - Professor Peter Karuzin (1864 - 1939).
1928 is considered to be the year of the anatomy department’s official foundation.
In the history of department, there were the next periods:
1928 - 1957 - the period of creation, public recognition and scientific development of dynamic anatomy as a new scientific direction;
1958 - 1977 - the period of sports morphology formation: a study of athletes’ somatic status and its features, an adaptation of different systems of the body to increased physical stress.
1978 - 1998 - the period of sports-morphological sciences formation and its system that took on the tasks of anatomical and anthropological support of physical culture and sports; creation of integrative anthropology concept .
1998 - present - further development of the knowledge system of sport morphology.
In 2003, the department was renamed into “Department of Anatomy and Biological Anthropology” and now it’s called the same way.
One of the main achievements of recent years is an information about the secular shifts direction and current trends of epochal variability.
So, the following disciplines are taught at the department:
- Human anatomy at full-time and part-time departments (1st and 2nd semesters).
- Biology with the basics of ecology at full-time department and distance courses (I and II semesters).
- Anatomy and morphology of a person at the full-time department (I and II semesters).

- Fundamentals of biological anthropology at the full-time department (IX semester).
- Human Anatomy for students of the Institute who take refresher courses.
- Biology for students of the Institute who take refresher courses.
- Biology at the faculty of pre-university training.
- Specialization "physical culture and health technologies", section of the specialization course "morphofunctional foundations of physical culture and health technologies" (for masters on the first course).
- Specialization "sports and athletes training system", section of the course "sports genetics" (for masters of the first year of study at full-time department and for those, who took distance courses).
Over the past five years, the department's staff has published over 100 works in foreign journals (11 pieces) as well as in the leading scientific journals and publications recommended by the Higher Attestation Commission (20).
According to the results of the contest called "The Scientist of the Year", the staff of the department regularly takes prizes and first places there.
In the Institute of Physical culture chemistry has been taught since 1918 - the year of its establishment.
Until 1927 the lectures on chemistry were read by Professor A.M. Berkenheim.
In 1927 the Department of Chemistry was actually created and headed by the A.M. Berkenheim’s brother - B.M. Berkenheim.
In those years, the chemistry course included sections of general, inorganic and organic chemistry.
In 1935, the department was headed by Associate professor V.S. Gorshechnikov. During his leadership the chemistry course was significantly improved and supplemented with laboratory researches.
In 1938, V.S. Gorshechnikov together with the professor L.I. Morin from the Physical Culture Leningrad Institute created the first curriculum of chemistry course for all the institutes of physical culture situated in our country.
From 1950 to 1973 The department of chemistry was headed by Doctor of chemical sciences, State prize laureate - Professor P.S. Vasiliev. Under his leadership much work has been done in order to organize and equip a biochemical laboratory.
In the 1960s, the Course of chemistry was renamed into the Course of biochemistry, and the department started to be called The department of biochemistry.
In 1957, the department opened postgraduate study for the specialty of "sports biochemistry".
On January 25, 2011 at the meeting of an educational council of SCOLIPE a new name of the department was approved: "Biochemistry and bioenergetics of sport." A new research division of the "bioenergetics laboratory" was created. Moreover, a new bioenergetics course of sports (for bachelors and undergraduates) was prepared for the main academic departments of the university; a new discipline of sports bioenergy was included in the curriculum of the specialists training.
It’s important to note, that on july 5, 2016 the department was awarded with the diploma "GOLDEN CHAIR OF RUSSIA" No. 01732.
The department was established in 1991. It prepares highly qualified bachelors, specialists, masters for the 3rd academic standard of higher professional education:
since 1991 - it is held in the specialization of "physical culture and sport" (specializations "theory and methods of physical culture and health movement" and "sports and health tourism");
since 2001 - in the specialization "recreation and sports tourism" (the specializations "junior tourism and local history" and "management in the field of recreation and tourism";
from 2006 to 2008 - in the specialization "tourism" (the specialization "technology and organization of carrier and agency services").
About 300 graduates of the faculty that have studied at the full-time and part-time departments now work in the preschool institutions, colleges, lyceums, secondary and higher educational institutions, organizations and enterprises in the sphere of recreation and tourism.
The staff of the department together with the Institute of Recreation and Tourism of SCOPLIPE created a new State educational standard of higher professional education for the specialty "recreational and sports tourism". It happened for the first time in the worldwide educational sphere in late 2001.
The standard was recognized and approved by more than thirty universities in Russia and Europe and also on three international congresses (Moscow, 2003; Alma-Ata, 2004; Kiev, 2005), dedicated to the Olympic "Sport for all" movements.
In accordance with this standard, students of the department study the following disciplines:
regional studies, bio rhythmology, recreation, balneology, a foreign language, theory and methodology of cultural and leisure activities, video- and photo activities, excursion business, marketing, management and economy of recreation and tourism.
The department has 14 candidates of pedagogical and medical sciences, 2 professors, 6 associate professors. It invites highly qualified specialists from other universities, fitness centers and travel agencies.
In the last 10 years, 12 Ph.D. theses have been defended and about 100 scientific and methodical works were published, including 2 monographs, 15 methodical guides and recommendations, and about 20 learning programs. The work was done by professors of our department, post-graduate students and those, who work on the problem of recreation, sports and health tourism.
The department was established on February 1, 1996 in order to bring the Russian education system closer to the global model of specialists’ training with higher education.
The department conducts scientific work in several areas:
Over the past 5 years, the department has produced 9 candidates and 1 doctor of science, including such professors as Konyukhov G., Britvina V. and Ivannikov G. The research is carried out by 1 doctoral student, 2 post-graduate students and 2 candidates of science.
Training sessions are held both in traditional forms - lectures and seminars - as well as in specific, tested on practice forms - for instance, by doing some calculation and graphic work (physics, mathematics and computer science).
For topics not sufficiently studied in the course of traditional studies there has been developed an independent work. Professors of the department constantly work on the creation of teaching aids.
During department’s existence, there have been developed and published programs on all the disciplines written in accordance with the didactic units of the State standard of the second generation. Multimedia lectures on all academic disciplines of the department have also been developed.
For the disciplines of the department there are constantly introduced some new forms and methods of teaching the students: for instance, as for the mathematics, a program for a teaching course is developed and implemented, including the development of students’ cognitive abilities. So, it is held on 22 seminars and numerous practical classes. A methodology of mathematics teaching based on the development of thinking, imagination, memory and attention is created. It doesn’t only improve the quality of learning material, but also significantly increases students' interest in learning.
In the 20-ies of the last century the first offices of medical control were created. In 1923, the scientific and medical department of the University was organized, soon after that, there followed the first department of scientific control. The theoretical foundations of discipline were established by the works of Russian scientists, in particular P. Lesgaft and V. Gorinevsky - the founders of the physical education science.
In 1925, the "Guide to Medical Control" by V. Gorinevsky and G. Birzin was published. In the early 30-ies of the last century the training of physicians and experts in physical education started being held. In the Central institute for advanced training of physicians the Department of physical education, headed by Professor B. Ivanovsky, was organized. It happened in 1931.
In the late 1960s, the Department of physiotherapy and medical control of SCOLIPE was divided into two parts according to the specialization. Since then, the Department of medical control sounds like the Department of sports medicine. The new name of the department reflected qualitative changes in the process of its development. The laboratory of medical control was also re-profiled into the laboratory of sports cardiology.
Employees of the department and laboratory conducted systematic surveys of many national teams of the country from 1960 to 1980.
In 1980, the first textbook on sports medicine was published. The second - a supplemented one - was published in 1987. Both were under the general editorship of V. Karpman.
Currently, the department continues research on the common problem connected with "Sports Heart". The main attention is paid to the possible pre-pathological processes that happen in the organism in this case.
The department was created in May 1996. It prepares specialists for the organization of rehabilitating, preventive, physical, recreational and sports work with people that have some disabilities in their state of health. Graduates of the department receive diploma of a new standard.
In the department there are 2 directions of specialization:
The program includes the following disciplines:
and other disciplines.
Starting with the 2nd year of education students have practice in medical, rehabilitation and educational institutions of Moscow. There is a laboratory at the department where problems of adaptive physical culture are investigated. Also, we’ve got a scientific student society.
