With the formation of the Russian Empire in the 18th century along with practical jurisprudence came the theoretical study of law. It was carried out in the law departments of imperial universities, and since the 19th century in Lyceums, the Imperial School of Jurisprudence, and the Military Legal Academy as well. The studies were conducted under the Common University Regulations that also determined teaching standards. After 1802, legal education in Russia was controlled by the Ministry of National Education. Its stated task was to train government officials. After the Great October Socialist Revolution in 1917 the purposes, ideological foundations and regulations of legal education changed considerably. In the 1930s the Soviet State founded the Law Institutes. One of them was the Siberian Institute of Soviet Law in Irkutsk, Siberia. Later, it was moved to the city of Sverdlovsk (now Ekaterinburg) in the Urals and was named the Sverdlovsk Law Institute. It is now the Ural State Academy of Law, one of the main institutes of higher legal education in Russia. Today the legal education in Russia is actively involved in integration processes including the so-called Bologna Process.
