The largest university in the city of Vladimir is VlSU. Faculties, specialties and departments are focused on the release of specialists in demand in various fields of activity. The active research work of leading scientists of the university helps to introduce innovative technologies in production, develop new products and bring up a decent young shift.
Branch
VlSU was founded in 1958 and began as a branch of the Moscow Engineering Institute with an evening form of training. Applicants were invited to two faculties - mechanical-technological and instrument-making, where it was possible to get an engineer education on the job. The specialties were popular - mechanical engineering technology, machinery and foundry technology, mechanical engineering, etc. The first enrollment of students consisted of 200 people, most of them had 10-15 years of work experience in production, only a third of freshmen were young people aged 20 years.
In 1963, the opportunity was opened to receive full-time education in several new specialties - metal-cutting machines and tools, production technology of radio equipment, engineering technology, etc. New areas of training were opened in response to the needs of local industrial enterprises. The development of the region took place at a rapid pace, which required highly qualified personnel and educational institutions, graduating specialists in several areas.
Institute creation
The practical solution to the problem of a shortage of engineering personnel was the founding of a polytechnic institute, which later became the largest Vladimir university - VlSU. Faculties, specialties and the history of the institution were in line with the spirit of the times. In 1964, the branch was transformed into an independent institution, the first specialists were also graduated and a new educational building was opened.
Separation into a separate institute allowed the departments to engage in research activities, for which orders were immediately found from local enterprises, such as Tochmash, Electromotor and Tractor plants. The number of requests for research activities grew and served to create a separate sector (NIS), which began to receive orders from the Council of Ministers of the country, industry enterprises and departments.
Development
The educational institution constantly demonstrated an increase in popularity among students, this was facilitated by the scientific work and the staff of teachers of the VlSU. Faculties, specialties, photos of student life and a description of the areas of practical application of research created the image of a progressive university. Along with scientific work, the number of departments grew.
In 1968, the second educational and laboratory building was commissioned, which housed the Faculty of Radio Instrumentation. By 1970, thirty departments, five faculties participated in the educational process, a branch was operating in the city of Kovrov. In 1978, the specialty "Electronic Computers" became available to applicants.
Many areas of training and practical activity appeared on the initiative of students of VlSU. Faculties, specialties and practice complemented each other. For the first time in 1976, an all-institute design bureau was established, where students were employees. By 1980, the bureau consisted of 8 sections of different faculties, two of which were located in branches, which brought together more than 500 students. In 1994, the Polytechnic Institute was transferred to the status of the State University (VlSTU). The university got its present name in 1997 and began to be called Vladimir State University (VlSU).
