Story

Kuibyshevsky aviation institute (KuAI) was formed in accordance with the order of the All-Union Committee for high school under the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR to provide the military industry with aircraft designers in 1942 as part of the MAI faculties evacuated during the Great Patriotic War. The tradition to name faculties primarily by numbers came from there. The first classes within the walls of the new institute began in October 1942.

Administrative structures

Like many other universities, SSAU is directly controlled by the rector and his assistants in certain areas - vice-rectors, who together make up the supreme governing body - the rectorate. At the same time, all the most important questions related to strategy further development university, is decided by an elected representative body - the Academic Council.

The relations between all employees and students of SSAU are regulated by the Charter of SSAU. According to the charter, the highest governing body of the university is the University Conference. This is a general university meeting, designed to solve only the most important issues that arise before SSAU. In fact, the conference meets rarely and only in cases of extreme necessity. In fact, the administration of the university is carried out by the administration and the academic council.

Educational structures

The educational part of SSAU is subdivided into faculties, each of which prepares students for a certain set of specialties, and each of which has several departments. Each faculty is managed by its dean's office, headed, in turn, by the dean of the faculty; the departments are headed by the heads of the departments. The peculiarity of the name of faculties is the fact that when designating a faculty, its number according to the chronological order of education is often used, rather than its name.

SSAU provides training in three forms: full-time, part-time and part-time. For the latter, a separate faculty has been created, which is described. Full-time training involves the maximum number of classroom lessons, both lecture and practical. It provides the most complete and quality education. The main feature of this form of education is the fact that the vast majority of students enrolled in it are trained on a budgetary basis, that is, they do not pay any fees for education. Classroom lessons in full-time and part-time education are held in the evening, and there are significantly fewer of them than in full-time. In this case, the student is forced to master most of the material on his own, but, nevertheless, it may be convenient for students working at an enterprise or receiving education at several universities.

For people who have already received higher education, the university has postgraduate and doctoral studies that train scientific and scientific-pedagogical personnel in the person of candidates of sciences and doctors of sciences at the expense of budgetary funds on a full-time basis.

Faculty of Distance Learning

SSAU began to conduct distance learning of specialists in 1999, and already in 2000, due to the increase in the number of students wishing to receive higher education at SSAU by correspondence, a faculty was created for this. It trains specialists in the most popular specialties and areas that already exist at other faculties. The main advantage of the faculty is the absence of classroom studies, which can be very beneficial for students who are already closely engaged in work or study at another university. Sometimes faculty distance learning still called the ninth house, although this is not officially accepted. Dean of the Faculty - Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Valery Dmitrievich Yelenev.

Faculty of pre-university training

Faculty pre-university training was founded in 1990 to work, first of all, with actual or potential applicants of SSAU.

Most of the conferences are devoted to the problems of aviation and astronautics, although the topic can be any other, for example, development higher education in Russia or high technology in modern science fiction literature. The main goals of the SSAU scientific conferences are to generate interest in scientific research among the younger generation of students and postgraduates, as well as to exchange experience among professional research scientists.

In addition, SSAU holds a lot of competitions, both educational and scientific, according to the results of which grants are usually awarded to the winners. Competitions can be held both among students (for example, "Potanin Competition") and among teachers (for example, "Competition for young teachers and researchers of SSAU"). The competitions are designed to increase the urge to study among students and to scientific activity among university teachers.

Scientific results

The scientific activity of SSAU has very high results. Only in the period from to. 123 candidates of sciences and 34 doctors of sciences were trained. During this period, university students received 97 awards in the All-Russian open competition for the best student scientific work. During these 5 years, the staff of the university received 163 patents, of which 21 patents were obtained jointly with students; 36 scientific conferences were held, among which there were 11 All-Russian and 9 international. The volume of scientific work carried out with the help of the research part of the university in 2004 amounted to 67.1 million rubles.

Public organizations

In SSAU there are the following public organizations: -, - trade union organization of employees, - "Veteran SSAU", - SSAU Board of Trustees.

Leisure and entertainment

SSAU cares not only about the education and scientific training of students, but also about the organization of their leisure. Plans for such an organization are usually developed by university staff, although they are often student initiatives. At SSAU, on the basis of the rector's regulations, various student clubs function, such as the IT-club "ASIS" or the club of intellectual games, which provide students with a lot of alternative ways to spend their free time in accordance with their own preferences.

Several sports teams in various sports train at the university. They regularly successfully participate in various competitions, for example, in interuniversity sports competitions.

The university has an equipped assembly hall, which annually hosts several variety performances and festivals, such as "Student Spring" and "Student Autumn". Student theaters of variety miniatures, as well as independent performers and groups, take part in the performances.

Thanks to the extensive computer network, not the last place in the list of possible leisure activities is occupied by the students' hobby for computer online games, for example, the famous Counter-Strike, which even hosts local championships among students. The hallway of one of the hostels serves as the auditorium and game halls during such championships.

Game club "Beyond the Boundary"

"A person plays only when he is in full meaning words are a man, and he is completely human only when he plays. "That is why in 2010 the Game-Technical Club" Beyond the Boundary "appeared in SSAU. During its existence, the club has developed and successfully organized many games of various genres and directions. In 2011 year the club received a grant from the V. Potanin Foundation to conduct a game-technical camp for students of SSAU.

Yacht club "Aist"

Many students and employees of SSAU are known for their passion for sailing. It began to be expressed soon after the creation of the university - in the 50s of the XX century. The sailing section is one of the oldest in the faculty. It was formed back in 1972, and since then it has been led by its founder - a coach of the highest category, judge of the republican category, Olympic measurer, yacht captain, twice master of sports Mikhail Vasilyevich Koltsov. At present, the sailing section has been renamed into the Aist Yacht Club. During the existence of the section, the university trained 114 athletes of the first category, 69 candidates for master of sports and 10 masters of sports. Members of the yacht club regularly take part in sailing regattas of various levels.

Story

Kuibyshev Aviation Institute ( KuAI) was formed in accordance with the order of the All-Union Committee for Higher Education under the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR to provide the military industry with aircraft designers in 1942 as part of the MAI faculties evacuated during the Great Patriotic War. The tradition to name faculties primarily by numbers came from there. The first classes within the walls of the new institute began in October 1942. From the moment of its establishment to November 1942, the Institute was headed by Professor A. M. Soifer.

Russia, Kuibyshev, KuAI, 1942

After the departure of Professor V.P. Lukachev in 1988, the future academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Vladimir Pavlovich Shorin became the new rector of KuAI, but already in 1990 he was replaced by the current rector of SSAU, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Viktor Aleksandrovich Soifer. On December 25, 1991, the city of Kuibyshev was renamed Samara, as in its historical name, in connection with which the institute itself was renamed. It received the name Samara Aviation Institute, but already on September 23, 1992, it received the status of a university and since then has its current name.

SSAU graduates are rightfully considered the most versatile and ready for management work, which is confirmed by the fact that the leadership of Samara and the region has more than 80% of the graduates of this university.

Faculty of Distance Learning

SSAU began to conduct distance learning of specialists in 1999, and already in 2000, due to the increase in the number of students wishing to receive higher education at SSAU by correspondence, a faculty was created for this. It trains specialists in the most demanded specialties and areas that already exist at other faculties. The main advantage of the faculty is the absence of classroom studies, which can be very beneficial for students who are already closely engaged in work or study at another university. Sometimes the faculty of distance learning is still called the eighth faculty, although this is not officially accepted. Dean of the faculty - Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Valery Dmitrievich Yelenev.

Faculty of pre-university training

The faculty of pre-university training was founded in 1990 to work, first of all, with actual or potential applicants of SSAU. He conducts preparatory courses, tests and subject Olympiads, which should attract the most prepared Samara youth to SSAU. Dean of the faculty - Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Evgeny Aleksandrovich Izzheurov.

General humanities departments

Some of the departments of SSAU are not accepted to be attributed to any faculty. These departments provide training in their disciplines to students of all faculties.
