Located in Moscow, the university is composed of faculties of biology, chem¬istry, computational mathematics and cybernetics, eco¬nomics, foreign languages, fundamental medicine, geo¬graphy, geology, history, journalism, law, mechanics and mathematics, physics, psychology, sociology, and soil sciences, as well as an institute of Asian and African Studies. Several museums, colleges, and a number of in¬stitutes are affiliated with Moscow University, and a preparatory faculty teaches Russian language and other subjects to foreign students.
