Far Eastern State Technical University

Far Eastern State Technical University (FESTU) (Russian: Дальневосто́чный госуда́рственный техни́ческий университе́т, ДВГТУ) is a university located in Vladivostok, Russia. It was established on February 20, 1930 as Far Eastern Politechnical Institute (Дальневосточный политехнический институт (ДВПИ)). It was granted the university status in 1992.

FESTU is not a successor of Oriental Institute as it claimed to be. The court denied its claims and reassured Far Eastern National University as the only successor. But FESTU was established on base of closed Oriental Institute and the building of the original Oriental Institute is currently the main building of Far Eastern State Technical University.
