My studies at the Imperial Universities in Kiev and St. Petersburg and my work in the Siberian Commercial Bank in St. Petersburg and Moscow (1898-1918)

  I was a student of   Kiev’s  Imperial University of St. Vladimir in 1898-1900  and I was a student of Mathematics Department of  St. Petersburg Imperial University in 1900-1913 too.

                             This is 3D model of Saint Sophia Cathedral in Kiev, Ukraine.

Visiting  of the University was not necessary for students.  We have established the timetable of visiting our classes  ourselves. The students  could not visit there university  over the years.  I had not practical classes on my Department  of  Mathematics in St. Petersburg.

I went to Kursk every summer, during  the  vacation time, and later in the winter too. I'm doing revolutionary work at the same time in St. Petersburg and  in my homeland in Kursk.    
                         

I received this  diploma on 12 January 1913 and started to work at the  Credit Union Bank at St. Petersburg on  Nevsky 59.
