Nizhny Novgorod State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering. Construction College - Nizhny Novgorod

An educational institution that trains professional builders is the Construction College in Nizhny Novgorod.

FGOU SPO NIZHNY NOVGOROD CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUE- one of the oldest educational institutions in Russia.

The first school year began on October 1, 1896.
The school had two departments: mechanical and road construction. Pupils of the road construction department, along with regular school subjects, were required to study architecture, construction art, technical and construction drawing.

The first graduation of construction foremen consisted of 17 people.

In total, until 1917, the school trained 352 specialists.

Since 1930, the educational institution began to be called the Construction College.
During the existence of the Construction College, a huge army of specialists, more than 20,000 thousand, was graduated. They can be found in many corners of our vast Motherland. Every third builder in the Nizhny Novgorod region is a graduate of NST.
In the 90s, new prestigious specialties were opened at NST, and additional educational activities began to develop. For the first time in the Nizhny Novgorod region, the technical school begins training in new specialties “Organization and service in hotels and tourist complexes” and “Environmental protection and rational use of natural resources.”
In 1997, training began in the specialty “Economics, Accounting and Control”.

A new page in the history of the Nizhny Novgorod Construction College opened from the day when Nikolai Aleksandrovich Demin, Ph.D. in Economics, Associate Professor, “Honored School Teacher of the Russian Federation,” became the director of the technical school.
He worked for more than 30 years in the public education system, going from a school teacher to the first deputy of the Department of Education and Science of the Administration of the Nizhny Novgorod Region. Colleague directors of technical schools in the Nizhny Novgorod region elected him Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Opened by Decree of the Sovereign Emperor on July 1, 1896, NST has been training highly qualified specialists in the construction industry for more than 100 years.

The pride of the technical school is its teaching staff, including Honored Teachers of the Russian Federation, Honored Builders of the Russian Federation, Candidates of Sciences, Honorary Workers of Secondary Vocational Education, and teachers of the highest category.

June 23, 1930 in the city of Gorky As a result of the separation of the construction faculty of Gorky State University into an independent technical educational institution, the Institute of Civil Engineering was formed. From this date, the activities of the Gorky Civil Engineering Institute (now -) began.

Today the University is one of the leading architectural and construction universities in Russia. It graduates architects, designers, civil engineers and technologists, ecologists, cadastral engineers, managers, economists, lawyers, social educators, specialists in the field of information systems and technologies, as well as bachelors, specialists and masters in other specialties/areas.

Nizhny Novgorod State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (NNGASU)- one of the leading architectural and construction universities in Russia, located in Nizhny Novgorod. Formed on June 23, 1930 as Nizhny Novgorod Civil Engineering Institute (NISI) as a result of the separation of the construction faculty of Nizhny Novgorod State University into an independent technical educational institution.

More than 500 teachers currently work in 39 departments of the university, including 55 professors and doctors of science, more than 250 associate professors and candidates of science, 60 members of Russian state and public-professional, as well as international academies. The university graduates designers, architects, civil engineers and technologists, managers, economists, lawyers and other specialists.

History of NNGASU

The Nizhny Novgorod State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering was organized on June 23, 1930 by a resolution of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR as the Nizhny Novgorod Civil Engineering Institute (NISI). Before this date, the training of civil engineering personnel was carried out in Nizhny Novgorod at the faculties and departments of a number of universities. The first among them was the Warsaw Polytechnic Institute (WPI), evacuated to Nizhny Novgorod in 1916 during the First World War. The construction department was the largest within this university. In 1917, VPI was transformed into the Nizhny Novgorod Polytechnic Institute (NPI), which was disbanded in 1918. Subsequent training of civil engineers was carried out at the construction department of the Nizhny Novgorod State University (NSU), established in 1918. In 1930, on the basis of the faculties of NSU, branch institutes were created, including the Nizhny Novgorod Civil Engineering Institute (from the city - the Gorky Civil Engineering Institute (GISI), since 1938, the Gorky Civil Engineering Institute named after V.P. Chkalov).

The political situation in the country and the management system in the 30-40s had a significant impact on the staff of the institute. During this period, seven directors of the institute were replaced: F. M. Denezhkin, S. A. Akimov, I. I. Fedoseev, F. A. Krivonogov, E. M. Filippov, K. G. Divakov, D. I. Demidenko. When the institute was created, four departments (faculties) were formed within it: industrial construction; civil engineering; sanitary and technical; road construction. Subsequently, the names of faculties and specialties were frequently changed. Stability came only in the post-war years, three faculties were formed within the institute: construction (with the specialty “Industrial and Civil Engineering”), sanitary engineering (with the specialties “Heat and Gas Supply and Ventilation” and “Water Supply and Sewerage”), and also created in 1944 Faculty of Hydraulic Engineering (with the specialty “Hydraulic Engineering” opened in 1942).

The period of the 50-60s is characterized by the systematic development of GISI. The director of the institute from 1951 to 1966 was Professor, Doctor of Technical Sciences V. G. Lenov. During these years, the number of students increased (in 1965 the number was 4275 people, 6 times more than in 1940). The teaching staff increases threefold (in 1965 - 235 people), largely replenished by graduates of the institute. In 1957, evening and correspondence faculties were opened. In 1957, preparatory courses began to operate, and in 1970, the preparatory department began operating. The range of architectural and construction specialties is expanding. In 1961, the specialty “City Construction and Economy” was opened, in 1962 - “Production of building materials, products and structures”, in 1965 - “Purification of natural and waste water”, in 1970 - “Highways and airfields”. In 1966, the specialty “Architecture” was opened, and the Faculty of Architecture was created. Forms of interaction between the university and scientific organizations and production are developing. In 1950, the country's first public institute of construction innovators was created. In 1956, a student design bureau was created, which marked the beginning of the student movement “We design ourselves - we build ourselves.” Much attention is paid to educational work. In 1961, a student university of culture was opened. In terms of mass participation and the level of achievements in cultural and sports activities, this period can be considered the most productive in the history of the university.

In 1987, the first rector elections in the history of the institute were held, as a result of which Academician V.V. Naidenko, who headed the university until 2005, was elected rector. The comprehensive university development program adopted at the end of the 80s made it possible not only not to slow down the pace of its development, but also subsequently to significantly exceed pre-crisis indicators. A feature of this period of development of the university is active participation in international projects, intensive development of scientific research, postgraduate and doctoral studies. The number of graduate students in 1990 was 12, in 2004 there were 257 people. The situation at the university with regard to the preparation and defense of dissertations has changed dramatically: in 1991, the university had one dissertation council for 2 specialties, in 2005 - 8 dissertation councils for 30 specialties. In 1990, university employees defended 7 candidate and doctoral dissertations, in 2004 - 47 dissertations. The volume of state budget and contractual work increased almost 20 times, from 1,768 thousand rubles. in 1990 to 34110 thousand rubles. in 2004. During this period, a number of large federal and international programs are being implemented in which the university is one of the lead implementers, including: the federal target program “Improving the environmental situation on the Volga River, restoring and preventing the degradation of natural complexes of the Volga basin” (“Renaissance of the Volga "), Russian-German project "Oka-Elbe", Russian-German project "Volga-Rhine", Russian - German - Dutch project "Creation of an exemplary university in economics, law, and management in the city of Nizhny Novgorod", TACIS project "Training in the field of sustainable development of territories using the example of the Volga Basin." In 1998, the Center for Pre-University Preparation and Education of Foreign Citizens was created. A big event in the life of the university staff was the opening in 1997 at its base of the UNESCO Chair “Environmentally Safe Development of a Large Region - the Volga River Basin.” From 1990 to 2005, the number of students increased more than 4 times and reached 23 thousand people, the number of teaching staff increased more than 2 times and exceeded 1000 people.

During this period, the university actively participates in the implementation of the reform of domestic education, including the development of conceptual issues of multi-level and continuous architectural and construction education. The international conference “Problems of Multilevel Higher Education” is held regularly. The university was one of the first technical universities in the country in 1992 to switch to a multi-level education system. The number of educational programs being implemented is increasing. During the 90s, the number of specialties increased 4 times (from 9 in 1990 to 37 in 2004), and the total number of basic educational programs, taking into account open bachelor's and master's degrees, increased almost 6 times (from 9 in 1990 . to 52 in 2004). Characteristic of this period was the expansion of the specialization of educational services. In 1990, the programs implemented at the university corresponded to two profiles, but by the beginning of the 21st century the university became wide-ranging (11 profiles out of 15 possible are implemented).

The information and laboratory base of the university is growing, specialized laboratories and computer classes are opening. The number of computers increased from 62 in 1990 to 1,500 in 2005. The development of the university, the expansion of the range of specialties, especially in the humanities, and the further development of scientific research led to the need to rename it. In 1991, GISI named after. V.P. Chkalov was renamed the Nizhny Novgorod Order of the Red Banner of Labor Architectural and Construction Institute (NASI). In 1993, the institute received the status of an academy and was renamed the Nizhny Novgorod State Academy of Architecture and Civil Engineering (NASA). In 1997, the university received university status. Accordingly, its name also changes, which remains to this day Nizhny Novgorod State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (NNGASU); new faculties, specialized institutes, centers are opening, including: the General Technical Faculty (1993); Faculty of Economics and Law; Faculty of Humanities and Arts (1998); Faculty of Distance Learning (2001). Subsequently, a number of faculties are transformed into institutes and back. The structure of the university's educational, research and production complex is developing.

From 1987 to 2005, the rector of the university was a famous scientist, laureate of the USSR State Prize, Honored Worker of Science and Technology of the Russian Federation, honorary citizen of Nizhny Novgorod, academician of the RAASN Valentin Vasilyevich Naidenko. In 2006, Dr. T. was elected rector of NNGASU. Sc., Professor E.V. Koposov, July 31, 2013, died in a car accident.

An excerpt characterizing the Nizhny Novgorod State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering

– At what time did the battle begin? - asked the emperor.
“I can’t tell your Majesty what time the battle began from the front, but in Dürenstein, where I was, the army began the attack at 6 o’clock in the evening,” said Bolkonsky, perking up and at the same time assuming that he would be able to present what was already ready in his head a true description of everything that he knew and saw.
But the emperor smiled and interrupted him:
- How many miles?
- From where and to where, Your Majesty?
– From Durenstein to Krems?
- Three and a half miles, Your Majesty.
-Have the French left the left bank?
“As the spies reported, the last ones crossed on rafts that night.
– Is there enough fodder in Krems?
– The fodder was not delivered in that quantity...
The Emperor interrupted him.
– At what time was General Schmit killed?...
- At seven o'clock, I think.
- At 7 o'clock. Very sad! Very sad!
The Emperor said his thanks and bowed. Prince Andrei came out and was immediately surrounded on all sides by courtiers. Kind eyes looked at him from all sides and gentle words were heard. Yesterday's adjutant reproached him for not staying at the palace and offered him his home. The Minister of War approached, congratulating him on the Order of Maria Theresa, 3rd class, which the Emperor had bestowed upon him. The Empress's chamberlain invited him to see Her Majesty. The Archduchess also wanted to see him. He didn’t know who to answer, and took a few seconds to collect his thoughts. The Russian envoy took him by the shoulder, took him to the window and began to talk to him.
Contrary to Bilibin’s words, the news he brought was received joyfully. A thanksgiving service was scheduled. Kutuzov was awarded the Grand Cross by Maria Theresa, and the entire army received decorations. Bolkonsky received invitations from all sides and had to make visits to the main dignitaries of Austria all morning. Having finished his visits at five o'clock in the evening, mentally composing a letter to his father about the battle and about his trip to Brunn, Prince Andrei returned home to Bilibin. At the porch of the house occupied by Bilibin, a britzka half-stuffed with belongings stood, and Franz, Bilibin’s servant, with difficulty dragging his suitcase, came out of the door.
Before going to Bilibin, Prince Andrei went to a bookstore to stock up on books for the trip and sat in the shop.
- What's happened? – asked Bolkonsky.
- Ach, Erlaucht? - said Franz, with difficulty loading the suitcase into the chaise. – Wir ziehen noch weiter. Der Bosewicht ist schon wieder hinter uns her! [Ah, your Excellency! We go even further. The villain is already on our heels again.]
- What's happened? What? - asked Prince Andrei.
Bilibin came out to meet Bolkonsky. There was excitement on Bilibin’s always calm face.
“Non, non, avouez que c"est charmant," he said, "cette histoire du pont de Thabor (bridge in Vienna). Ils l"ont passe sans coup ferir. [No, no, admit that this is a delight, this story with the Tabor Bridge. They crossed it without resistance.]
Prince Andrei did not understand anything.
- Where are you from that you don’t know what all the coachmen in the city already know?
- I am from the Archduchess. I didn't hear anything there.
– And didn’t you see that they are stacking everywhere?
- I haven’t seen it... But what’s the matter? – Prince Andrei asked impatiently.
-What's the matter? The fact is that the French crossed the bridge that Auesperg defends, and the bridge was not blown up, so Murat is now running along the road to Brunn, and today they will be here tomorrow.
- How is it here? How come they didn’t blow up the bridge when it was mined?
– And this is what I’m asking you. Nobody, not even Bonaparte himself, knows this.
Bolkonsky shrugged.
“But if the bridge is crossed, it means the army is lost: it will be cut off,” he said.
“That’s the thing,” answered Bilibin. - Listen. The French are entering Vienna, as I told you. Everything is very good. The next day, that is, yesterday, gentlemen marshals: Murat Lann and Belliard, sit on horseback and go to the bridge. (Note that all three are Gascons.) Gentlemen,” says one, “you know that the Tabor Bridge is mined and counter-mined, and that in front of it is a formidable tete de pont and fifteen thousand troops, who have been ordered to blow up the bridge and not let us in.” But our sovereign Emperor Napoleon will be pleased if we take this bridge. The three of us will go and take this bridge. “Let’s go,” others say; and they set off and take the bridge, cross it and now with the entire army on this side of the Danube they are heading towards us, towards you and towards your messages.
“No more joking,” said Prince Andrei sadly and seriously.
This news was sad and at the same time pleasant for Prince Andrei.
As soon as he learned that the Russian army was in such a hopeless situation, it occurred to him that he was precisely destined to lead the Russian army out of this situation, that here he was, that Toulon, who would lead him out of the ranks of unknown officers and open the first path for him to glory! Listening to Bilibin, he was already thinking how, having arrived at the army, he would present an opinion at the military council that alone would save the army, and how he alone would be entrusted with the execution of this plan.
“Don’t be kidding,” he said.
“I’m not joking,” continued Bilibin, “there is nothing fairer and sadder.” These gentlemen come to the bridge alone and raise white scarves; They assure that there is a truce, and that they, the marshals, are going to negotiate with Prince Auersperg. The officer on duty lets them into the tete de pont. [bridge fortification.] They tell him a thousand Gascon nonsense: they say that the war is over, that Emperor Franz has appointed a meeting with Bonaparte, that they want to see Prince Auersperg, and a thousand Gasconades, etc. The officer sends for Auersperg; These gentlemen hug the officers, joke, sit on the cannons, and meanwhile the French battalion enters the bridge unnoticed, throws bags of flammable substances into the water and approaches the tete de pont. Finally, the Lieutenant General himself appears, our dear Prince Auersperg von Mautern. “Dear enemy! The flower of the Austrian army, the hero of the Turkish wars! The enmity is over, we can give each other a hand... Emperor Napoleon is burning with the desire to recognize Prince Auersperg.” In a word, these gentlemen, not for nothing Gascons, shower Auersperg with beautiful words, he is so seduced by his so quickly established intimacy with the French marshals, so blinded by the sight of Murat’s mantle and ostrich feathers, qu"il n"y voit que du feu, et oubl celui qu"il devait faire faire sur l"ennemi. [That he sees only their fire and forgets about his own, which he was obliged to open against the enemy.] (Despite the liveliness of his speech, Bilibin did not forget to pause after this mot to give time to evaluate it.) The French battalion runs into tete de pont, the guns are nailed down, and the bridge is taken. No, but what’s best,” he continued, calming down in his excitement by the charm of his own story, “is that the sergeant assigned to that cannon, at the signal of which the mines were supposed to be lit and the bridge blown up, this sergeant, seeing that the French troops running to the bridge, he was about to shoot, but Lann pulled his hand away. The sergeant, who was apparently smarter than his general, comes up to Auersperg and says: “Prince, you are being deceived, these are the French!” Murat sees that the matter is lost if the sergeant is allowed to speak. He turns to Auersperg with surprise (a real Gascon): “I don’t recognize the Austrian discipline so vaunted in the world,” he says, “and you allow a lower rank to talk to you like that!” C "est genial. Le prince d" Auersperg se pique d "honneur et fait mettre le sergent aux arrets. Non, mais avouez que c" est charmant toute cette histoire du pont de Thabor. Ce n"est ni betise, ni lachete... [This is brilliant. Prince Auersperg is offended and orders the arrest of the sergeant. No, admit it, it’s lovely, this whole story with the bridge. This is not just stupidity, not just meanness...]
“Est trahison peut etre, [Perhaps treason," said Prince Andrei, vividly imagining the gray greatcoats, wounds, gunpowder smoke, the sounds of gunfire and the glory that awaits him.
– Non plus. “Cela met la cour dans de trop mauvais draps,” continued Bilibin. - Ce n"est ni trahison, ni lachete, ni betise; c"est comme a Ulm... - He seemed to think, looking for an expression: - c"est... c"est du Mack. Nous sommes mackes, [Also no. This puts the court in the most absurd position; this is neither treason, nor meanness, nor stupidity; it’s like at Ulm, it’s... it’s Makovshchina. We dipped ourselves. ] - he concluded, feeling that he had said un mot, and a fresh mot, such a mot that will be repeated.
The folds on his forehead that had been gathered until then quickly dissolved as a sign of pleasure, and he, smiling slightly, began to examine his nails.
-Where are you going? - he said suddenly, turning to Prince Andrei, who stood up and headed to his room.
- I'm going.
- Where?
- To the army.
- Yes, you wanted to stay two more days?
- And now I’m going now.
And Prince Andrei, having given the order to leave, went to his room.
“You know what, my dear,” said Bilibin, entering his room. - I thought about you. Why are you going?
And to prove the irrefutability of this argument, all the folds disappeared from the face.
Prince Andrei looked questioningly at his interlocutor and did not answer.
- Why are you going? I know you think it is your duty to jump into the army now that the army is in danger. I understand that, mon cher, c"est de l"heroisme. [my dear, this is heroism.]
“Not at all,” said Prince Andrei.
- But you are un philoSophiee, [a philosopher,] be one completely, look at things from the other side, and you will see that your duty, on the contrary, is to take care of yourself. Leave it to others who are no longer fit for anything... You were not ordered to come back, and you were not released from here; therefore, you can stay and go with us, wherever our unfortunate fate takes us. They say they are going to Olmutz. And Olmutz is a very nice city. And you and I will ride together calmly in my stroller.
“Stop joking, Bilibin,” said Bolkonsky.
– I tell you sincerely and in a friendly manner. Judge. Where and why will you go now that you can stay here? One of two things awaits you (he gathered the skin above his left temple): either you don’t reach the army and peace will be concluded, or defeat and disgrace with the entire Kutuzov army.
And Bilibin loosened his skin, feeling that his dilemma was irrefutable.
“I can’t judge this,” Prince Andrei said coldly, but he thought: “I’m going in order to save the army.”
“Mon cher, vous etes un heros, [My dear, you are a hero,” said Bilibin.

That same night, having bowed to the Minister of War, Bolkonsky went to the army, not knowing where he would find it, and fearing on the way to Krems to be intercepted by the French.
In Brünn, the entire court population packed up, and the burdens were already sent to Olmütz. Near Etzelsdorf, Prince Andrei drove out onto the road along which the Russian army was moving with the greatest haste and in the greatest disorder. The road was so crowded with carts that it was impossible to travel in a carriage. Having taken a horse and a Cossack from the Cossack commander, Prince Andrei, hungry and tired, overtaking the carts, rode to find the commander-in-chief and his cart. The most ominous rumors about the position of the army reached him on the way, and the sight of the army randomly running confirmed these rumors.
“Cette armee russe que l"or de l"Angleterre a transportee, des extremites de l"univers, nous allons lui faire eprouver le meme sort (le sort de l"armee d"Ulm)", ["This Russian army, which English gold was brought here from the end of the world, will experience the same fate (the fate of the Ulm army).”] he recalled the words of Bonaparte’s order to his army before the start of the campaign, and these words equally aroused in him surprise at the brilliant hero, a feeling of offended pride and hope of glory. “What if there is nothing left but to die? Well, if necessary, I will do it no worse than others.”
Prince Andrei looked with contempt at these endless, interfering teams, carts, parks, artillery and again carts, carts and carts of all possible types, overtaking one another and jamming the dirt road in three or four rows. From all sides, behind and in front, as long as one could hear one could hear the sounds of wheels, the rumble of bodies, carts and carriages, the clatter of horses, blows of a whip, shouts of urging, curses of soldiers, orderlies and officers. Along the edges of the road one could constantly see fallen, skinned and unkempt horses, or broken carts, where lonely soldiers were sitting, waiting for something, or soldiers separated from their teams, who were heading in crowds to neighboring villages or dragging chickens, rams, hay or hay from the villages. bags filled with something.
On the descents and ascents the crowds became thicker, and there was a continuous groan of shouts. The soldiers, sinking knee-deep in mud, picked up guns and wagons in their hands; whips beat, hooves slid, lines burst and chests burst with screams. The officers in charge of the movement drove forward and backward between the convoys. Their voices were faintly audible amid the general roar, and it was clear from their faces that they despaired of being able to stop this disorder. “Voila le cher [“Here is the dear] Orthodox army,” thought Bolkonsky, remembering the words of Bilibin.

Construction is one of the rapidly developing and promising industries in our country, but this does not encourage applicants to choose construction universities and colleges. The fact is that people have the wrong idea about the work of a builder. People believe that this specialist does hard physical work. Hard labor with a shovel on a construction site, naturally, does not attract anyone. In fact, the work of a specialist with a construction education can be varied. Some people work in the office, others - in a scientific laboratory or at the control panel of complex mechanisms.

Interested applicants should pay attention to the specialized educational institutions of the city - the university and technical school. The university and college were opened a long time ago. Over the years of existence, they have been able to become one of the best educational organizations in the region. Let's take a closer look at these educational institutions, consider the Nizhny Novgorod Construction University and the Nizhny Novgorod Construction College.

General information about the institution

The university has existed since 1930. However, at the time of its founding it had a different status. It was a construction institute. Nizhny Novgorod, therefore, has long begun to train highly qualified specialists for the construction industry. Over the years of its existence, the university has made a huge number of steps forward - from a small educational institution it has turned into a large university.

The modern construction university of Nizhny Novgorod is developing various areas of training for bachelors, masters, and specialists, but the base still remains the same - construction. The university specializes in training students for this industry. The educational institution strives to provide quality educational services. This is facilitated by qualified teaching staff. The team of employees includes several dozen doctors of science and professors, over 250 associate professors and candidates of science.

Structure of the educational institution

The Nizhny Novgorod Civil Engineering University is a large educational institution. More than 10 thousand students study there, and there are more than 5 thousand students in the additional education system. The educational process in such a large university is organized by structural divisions:

  • faculties (general technical, civil engineering, architecture and design, engineering and environmental systems and structures);
  • economics, management and law, international institute of economics, law and management, intersectoral institute for retraining and advanced training);
  • Department of training of scientific and scientific-pedagogical personnel;
  • Department of Pre-University Training and Marketing of Educational Activities;
  • center for pre-university preparation and training of foreign citizens;
  • departments, of which there are more than 50.
