In 1724 the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, established by Peter I, built a college and a sentence structure school to teach savvy people and specialists the nation required; in any case, these instructive foundations did not satisfy the undertaking they tackled.
It was Michail Lomonosov who recommended, in his letter to Count Shuvalov, the thought of building a college in Moscow.
A compelling squire and the most loved of Empress Elizaveta Petrovna, Count Shuvalov was a supporter of human expressions and science; he bolstered Lomonosov's arrangements for another college and introduced them to the Empress.

The Decree Elizaveta Petrovna marked expressed in its preface that the college was to instruct everyday citizens; just serfs were not conceded. Lomonosov himself brought up that in European colleges it was the scholastic accomplishments of an understudy that mattered, not his social position or family foundation. In the late XVIII century there were just three aristocrats among the 26 educators of Moscow University, a large portion of the understudies were normal people as well. The best understudies were sent to proceed with their training abroad, securing the contacts with the global academic group.
