60 years ago, on March 1st, 1957, in the year of the launch of the Earth’s first artificial satellite, the Faculty of Mechanics of ChPI (today the SUSU Faculty of Aerospace Engineering) was created. The faculty’s dean, candidate of technical sciences, Vasiliy Salich told us about how it developed.
– Vasiliy Leonidovich, what successes has the faculty brought to this great anniversary?
– The faculty’s main achievement is its alumni who work in space rocket, aviation, and different sectors, increasing the country’s glory.
On April 12th, 1961 the world’s first spacecraft was launched into space – the Vostok satellite with the first cosmonaut Yu. A. Gagarin on board. Today, we are going on a scientific, cosmic journey with you, called “Faculty of Aerospace Engineering – 60 years”, and invite you on board the SUSU spacecraft. It’s time to get to know those people whose achievements and developments make up the modern foundation of scientific knowledge and rocket building.
On April 12th the whole world celebrates a day dedicated to man’s first flight into space. This is a special date – a triumph of science, technology, and the human mind going beyond the bounds of the possible. This is a day for all of those who made the first steps to conquering space and those who are continuing to advance the most planet’s most global sector.
Cosmonautics Day is a special holiday for a student studying at the Aerospace Faculty, especially this year. April 12, 2017 the famous AS-faculty of SUSU celebrates its 60th anniversary. That is why the activists of the faculty of SUSU decided to organize a large-scale event dedicated to two significant dates.
April 12 at 12:00 on the site in front of the main building of SUSU students of the Aerospace Faculty will arrange a spectacular flash mob.
On April 12, 1961, an event occurred that became the starting point of the era of space exploration: cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin entered the near-Earth orbit on the Vostok spacecraft and flew around the planet. These were 108 minutes of flight, which the world watched with a sinking heart. After such a breakthrough, space has become not so far away, humanity is taking bold steps to investigate it.
On April 6, South Ural State University celebrated the Arab Culture Day, in which students from Iraq, Yemen, Palestine, Jordan and Syria took part.
The event was organized by SUSU International Affairs Division. Nadezhda Gulchak, Director of the Expert Center of the International Affairs Division told us about the event organization:
Not too long ago, a world where all work was completed by robots existed only in the imaginations of science fiction writers and directors. Today, thanks to innovative technologies, the fantastical future is becoming a reality.
On March 29 the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation summarized the results for implementing projects aimed at creating and developing engineering centers in universities in 2016. Successful experience in collaborating of the SUSU Center of Computer Engineering (CCE) with industrial enterprises was presented to the Ministry experts by Andrey Keller, Vice-Rector of Strategic Development and supervisor of the Project.
A team of South Ural State University researchers won the 2016/2017 Grant Contest for Master’s Professors from the V. Potanin Foundation for the development of the linguistic evaluation master’s program.
The grant manager is Olga Aleksandrovna Turbina, director of the Center of Linguistics, professor, doctor of philological sciences, professor of the department of linguistics and translation.
The program developers (participants in the grant project) include:
The English professor held his second master class for SUSU students entitled “Design of a minimalistic home,” after which he recognized its participants.
"Thomas Kern personally handed a certificate to each participant,” says Tatyana Efimova, general director of the study abroad center, Study Land, “The professor chose three winners, giving each a present. Second, third, and fourth-year students participated.”
The laboratory of multi-scale modeling of multicomponent materials of the Nanotechnology SEC (ISSH), created as part of the SUSU 5-100 Program Road Map, works with problems of fundamental research in chemistry.
At the end of last year in the South Ural region, a neuropathology (study of the liver) laboratory was launched, analogues to which do not exist in the country nor in the world.
Information about studying in Russia is now available to French-speaking prospective students.
More than 200 million people speak French on almost all continents, this is the official language in 29 countries. The launch of StudyinRussia.ru in French will significantly expand the audience of the website aimed at attracting international students to Russian universities.
The universe, now and always, has fascinated humankind with its mystique and unexplored territories. We look at the starry sky and see many stars thousands or millions of lightyears away from us. The universe lives by its own, not fully understood laws.
At South Ural State University, candidate of physical and mathematical sciences, assistant professor of the department of physical electronics of the Institute of Humanitarian and Hard Sciences, Igor Klebanov, is studies of the mathematical models of the universe’s large-scale structures.
How can we improve students' motivation to study, especially when the whole academic process is transferred to the online space? How can students be shown that the knowledge they receive in a course can be very helpful in real life and believe in it themselves? How can you make your online course accessible to the audience, but also flexible and adapted to each student? Professors of our university can find out about this and much more through study in the program entitled “Development of customized courses”.
On April 7th in SUSU a presentation will be held about masters' degree programs in France from the cultural and educational organization Alliance Française.
The SUSU Center of Computer Engineering is dedicated to working on import phaseouts as a result of engineering developments for Russian companies. One of the main goals of the center is to develop on-board drive trains, driving axles, hydromechanical transmissions for Russian mechanical loaders, graders, cars, and track machines.
Dormitory number 7 on the SUSU campus is the youngest, but its traditions of living amicably and cheerfully are well-known in the student circle. Today, more than 1000 students from the university’s 7 leading faculties live here. And all of them, together with the administration, gathered for a holiday concert “His Majesty the Campus”. SUSU alumni, for whom dormitory 7 was truly a home during their studies, also came.
A delegation from SUSU represented by the deputy director of the office of international affairs, Yulia Polyakova, and deputy head of the department of migration services, Marina Mamonova attended the International Manufacturing Exhibition “EXPO-RUSSIA SERBIA-2017” to gain scientific and academic contacts.
South Ural State University keeps working in the frameworks of 5-100 Project. Visits of the leading international professors have become a good tradition. This time, the Faculty of Architecture invited Thomas Kern, the director of Architecture Program at Newcastle University (Great Britain).
