The college initially involved the Principal Medicine Store on Red Square from 1755 to 1787; Catherine the Great exchanged it to a Neoclassical expanding on the opposite side of Mokhovaya Street.

The facing served as a mammoth projection screen, while firecrackers, lasers, and searchlights were all dispatched from different focuses around the building. The stage stood straightforwardly before the building, and the show, titled "The Road To The 21st Century" in Russia (yet renamed "Oxygen In Moscow" for overall video/DVD discharge) pulled in a world-record horde of 3.5 million individuals.

On March 19, 2008, Russia's most effective supercomputer to date, the SKIF MSU (Russian: Скиф Мгу; skif in Russian signifies "Scythian") was dispatched at the college. Its crest execution of 60 TFLOPS (LINPACK - 47.170 TFLOPS) make it the quickest supercomputer in the CIS
