BMSTU

The history of our institution, the Bauman MHTS (Moscow Higher Technical School), or presently the Bauman MSTU (Moscow State Technical University) dates back to 1830, when Emperor Nicholas I confirmed the "statute of the industrial school" to open in Moscow. Russia's developing industry needed skilled labor in many trades. So, the aim of the new school was to train skillful artisans with a solid theoretical background to improve and spread skills in various trades all over Russia. The training personnel of the school comprised graduates of the Moscow University who specialized in mathematics, mechanics, physics and chemistry. By 1868 the academic standards of the school were so high that it was reorganized into a special institution of higher learning (Imperial Moscow Technical School or IMTS). Its major task now was to train mechanics in construction, engineering and manufacturing. The IMTS was financially supported by the Government and industrialists. Its management was democratic. Its teaching staff boasted of many talented scientists who maintained contacts with the West. All these circumstances helped the School to achieve outstanding successes in manufacturing processes and practices in the chemical, food and textile industries, metal and wood processing, and structural mechanics. During the 1876 Exhibition in Philadelphia the practically-minded Americans highly appreciated and admired the methods used by the School, recognizing them as an original "Russian system" of training engineers. In 1876, Dr. Wrinkle, President of the Boston Institute of Technology, writes to V.K.Dela-Vos, Director of the Imperial Moscow Technical School that Russia is a recognized leader in handling the important problems of engineering education, and that no other system will hence be used in America. IMTS system of handicraft education of engineers was recognized all over the world. «Russian method» became especially well-known after Vienna World Exhibition (1873) where it was awarded Big Gold Medal. IMTS was recognized the best machine-building education institution of Russia and joined the ranks of the world leading polytechnic schools. A lot of outstanding scientists taught in IMTS, such as D. Mendeleev, N. Jukovsky, P. Chebychev, S. Chaplygin, A. Yershov, D. Sovetkin, F. Dmitriev, A. Letnikov, A. Gavrilenko.

Thus, the Moscow Higher Technical School joined the ranks of "leading polytechnical schools in Europe".

The late 19th century witnessed quickening progress in electrical engineering, aeromechanics, and the power engineering industry.

In 1918, the MHTS organized several research institutes, including TSAGI (Central Aerodynamics and Hydrodynamics Institute), which eventually developed into independent structures, separating from their parent. The quick industrial expansion of the country called for new training facilities on other fields of science and technology. In 1930, the MHTS began to branch out into many new institutions of higher learning: the Moscow Aviation Institute, the Moscow Power Engineering Institute, the Military Chemical Academy, the Textile Institute, and the Moscow Civil Engineering Institute.

The MHTS continued to specialize in training engineers for the machine-building and instrumentation industries.

In 1938, the MHTS opened new departments with a defense profile: armoured vehicles and tanks, artillery, and ammunition. In 1948, a department of rocketry was added.

The following famous scientists and specialists have graduated our school: Academician A.N. Tupolev, S.P. Korolev, and many other aircraft and rocket designers and developers; Academician N.A. Dollezhal, chief designer of atomic piles; Academician A.I.Tselikov, chief designer of metallurgical engineering; Academician S.A.Lebedev, chief designer of computers.

Our School is distinguished for high-level scientific and engineering training of students, extensive relations with industries, good traditions, and high professional and moral requirements which both the professors and students feel obliged to meet and maintain.

In 1989, the MHTS was conferred a new name: the Bauman Moscow State Technical University (Bauman MSTU).

Pafnuty Lvovich Chebyshev (16 May 1821 – 8 December 1894) was a Russian mathematician. Chebyshev is known for his work in the fields of probability, statistics, mechanics, and number theory. The Chebyshev inequality is used to prove the Weak Law of Large Numbers. Chebyshev is also known for the Chebyshev polynomials.

Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev(8 February 1834 – 2 February 1907) was a Russian chemist and inventor. He formulated the Periodic Law, created his own version of the periodic table of elements, and used it to correct the properties of some already discovered elements and also to predict the properties of eight elements yet to be discovered.

Nikolay Yegorovich Zhukovsky (17 January 1847– 17 March 1921) was a Russian scientist and a founding father of modern aero- and hydrodynamics. Whereas contemporary scientists scoffed at the idea of human flight, Zhukovsky was the first to undertake the study of airflow.

Sergei Pavlovich Korolev (12 January 1907 – 14 January 1966) was the lead Soviet rocket engineer and spacecraft designer in the Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union during the 1950s and 1960s. He is considered by many as the father of practical astronautics.

Vladimir Nikolayevich Chelomey (30 June 1914 – 8 December 1984) was a Soviet mechanics scientist, aviation and missile engineer. He invented the very first Soviet pulse jet engine and was responsible for the development of the world's first anti-ship cruise missiles and ICBM complexes.

Laboratory Building of BMSTU

The Laboratory Building of BMSTU was opened in 2004.

At the opening ceremony Minister of Education Vladimir Filippov called it "a symbol of the Russia’s rebirth".

The total area of the 11-storey building is over 80 thousand sq. meters (equivalent of 11 football fields). 5 thousand students of all departments can have classes there simultaneously.

The building houses 100 lecture halls, 20 computer classrooms, 19 elevators, a library, which can store nearly 1 million books, a reading room for 700 visitors, a concert hall having almost 1,200 seats and a conference hall for 130 seats.

The Laboratory Building stands on the bank of the River Yauza and its similarity with a ship's hull explains its nickname, that is "an icebreaker".

The Fundamental Science Scientific and Training Complex (visit for the Russian version and - for the English version) is located on the 4th , 6th, 8th, 9th and 10th floors of the Laboratory Building as well as in the main building on 2nd Baumanskaya street.

The PIRT Conference has been held in the Conference Hall of the Laboratory Building since 2005.

Department of Physics

Department of Physics of Bauman Moscow State Technical University (BMSTU) has worked since 1832, when Physical Study to demonstrate physical phenomena during lectures for students was created at the Craft Institution of Moscow Training House.

On the first June in 1968 the Craft Institution was reformed into Emperor Moscow Technical Specialized School and the Physical Study got a new official status as Department of General and Applied Physics. Professor A.S.Vladimirskii, who had graduated from Moscow University, headed the Department.

The brightest historical moments of the Department were linked with names of professor V.S.Shchegolyaev (the head of the Department since 1886 till 1912) and academician P.P.Lazarev (the head of the Department since 1912 till 1925).

At different times a number of remarkable scientists have worked at the Department: academician, president of USSR Science Academy S.I.Vavilov, corresponding-members of USSR Science Academy K.A.Krug and A.S.Predvoditelev, professors A.B.Mlodzievskii, A.K.Trapeznikov, A.V.Shpol'skii, N.E.Uspenskii, V.D.Zernov, K.A.Putilov.

At present the staff of the Department of Physics consists of 14 professors, 47 readers, 8 senior teachers and 7 professors, 15 readers, 7 senior teachers occupy private positions.

History of PIRT

The PIRT Conference is a four-day event held in September since 1988 at Imperial College in London and since 2003 at Bauman University in Moscow.

The idea of the conference was proposed at a scientific seminar by Dr. Michael Duffy from University of Sunderland, United Kingdom and initially aimed to allow free communication for foreign scientists with scientists from the former Soviet Union. It was planned to hold a conference in Kazan University (Russia), where one of the founders of non-Euclidean geometry N.I. Lobachevsky used to work.

In 1988 Michael Duffy organized the first PIRT conference at Imperial College (London), where it is held every two years. The conference is notable for the freedom of scientific views, large reports (up to 40 min), Proceedings published and the participation of Russian scientists.

In 2003 the first PIRT conference was held at BMSTU in Moscow. The conference was organized by V. Gladyshev, P. Rowlands, M. Duffy. The event was a success, and it was decided to hold a conference in Moscow every two years. The PIRT Conference was also held in Calcutta (India) and Budapest (Hungary).

The PIRT Conference features talks on multi-dimensional theory of gravity, gravitational-wave experiments, dark matter, cosmic microwave background, space anisotropy search, tests of the theory of relativity and electrodynamics.
