Moscow is the economic powerhouse of Russia and, with 11 million inhabitants, the largest city in Europe.
- Attractive facilities in the historical centres of St.Petersburg and Moscow: Both schools are equipped with modern well lit classrooms (15 in St.Petersburg, 10 in Moscow), libraries and free Internet access (including state of the art technology like DVD sets in most classrooms and wireless zone). Students can also find a ticket reservation/domestic travel desk and a cafeteria offering inexpensive drinks and food (in St.Petersburg only).
