History

The lyceum was established in 1963 and was known as the Republican Specialized Physics and Mathematics Boarding School until 1992. In total 5,324 students graduated from UPML by 2013. Many of the alumni are winners of National Ukrainian and International Science Olympiads: only between 1963 and 2005 as many as 65 UPML students were awarded medals at International Olympiads in Physics (IPhO), Mathematics (IMO), Chemistry (IChO) and Informatics (IOI), 148 – at all-Soviet Olympiads, 696 – at Ukrainian National Olympiads. The lyceum is currently publicly funded in its entirety and suffers from regular budget shortfalls. Nevertheless, tuition, board and lodging are free of charge for all admitted students. In 2007 UPML became the first Ukrainian school with its name visible from
