Story

The birth and development of the Moscow Aviation Institute is closely connected with the needs of developing aviation, with the activities of Professor N. E. Zhukovsky, on whose initiative in 1909 at the Imperial Moscow Technical School (now MSTU named after N. E. Bauman) began reading the course theoretical foundations aeronautics.

On September 17, 1929, by order of the Supreme Economic Council of the USSR (No. 124), the aviation department of the mechanical faculty of the Moscow Higher Technical School was transformed into the aeronautical faculty.

On March 20, 1930, on the basis of the aeromechanical faculty of the Moscow Higher Technical School, the Higher Aeromechanical School (VAMU) was established by order of the USSR Supreme Economic Council.

On August 20, 1930, the Moscow Aviation Institute was established on the basis of VAMU. At first, classes were held on Olkhovskaya Street, then the university was given a building on 5th Tverskaya-Yamskaya Street. Back to top school year(1930-1931) students of the aviation department of the Leningrad Polytechnic Institute - 120 people - and Tomsk Technological Institute - 19 people were transferred to VAMU. As part of MAI, as well as in VAMU, there were three departments: aircraft building, engine building and aeronautics.

In 1930-1931, the structure of the institute was being formed. The Aeronautical Faculty was renamed into the Airship Building Faculty.

On September 22, 1932, by the decision of the Central Control Commission of the RCT, on the basis of the Airship Building Faculty of the MAI, the Moscow Airship Building Institute was formed, which, by the decision of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR of April 8, 1939, was reorganized into the Moscow Institute of Engineers of the Civil Air Fleet. K. E. Tsiolkovsky (Later Russian State Technological University named after K.E. Tsiolkovsky).

By 1933, the first own building of the institute was built (currently building No. 3 of the Faculty of Control Systems) at the fork of the Volokolamsk and Leningrad highways, where the main territory of the university is located to this day.

On March 10, 1933, the Faculty of Engineering and Economics of the MAI was organized on the basis of the Moscow Aviation Engineering and Economics Institute (MAIEI) and the departments of production organization and concrete economics.

On December 16, 1935, by decree of the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR, the name of the People's Commissar of Heavy Industry Sergo Ordzhonikidze was given.

By the autumn of 1941, the government decided to evacuate the institute to Alma-Ata. After the defeat of the Germans near Moscow, the issue of resuming the activities of the institute in Moscow was raised, and already on February 2, 1942, the educational process began in the Moscow premises of the institute.

In 1945, the merits of the MAI staff during the war were awarded a high government award- Order of Lenin. In addition, 119 teachers, staff and students of the institute were awarded orders and medals.

MAI laboratory

In 1945, the Department of Special (Jet) Engines was established at the MAI (Head of the Department, Professor N. V. Inozemtsev). With this, the MAI began training specialists in air-jet and liquid-propellant engines, and then in other rocket specialties.

In 1956, a group of MAI teachers went to Beijing to provide organizational and methodological assistance in the creation of the Beijing Aviation Institute (PAI), currently renamed Beihang University (Beijing Aerospace University). MAI teachers have conducted all kinds of training sessions at PAI for a number of years.

In 1956-1975, the second stage of the MAI construction was carried out. The number of classroom buildings, educational and scientific laboratories, industrial premises increased to 35. With the growth of the institute, its structure also changed, new faculties and departments were added. The result of this stage was the transformation of the aviation institute, previously focused mainly on aircraft and partly helicopter technology, into an aerospace institute. politechnical University, which provides training for a wide range of scientific and design organizations in the aviation and rocket and space industries.

In 1959, the Department of Design and Construction of Aircraft was created to train specialists in the field of missile and space technology. From the moment of organization and until 1990, the department was headed by the first deputy chief designer S.P. Koroleva, academician V.P. Mishin (graduate of MAI in 1941). The department laid the foundation for extensive training of personnel for the rocket and space industry and served as the basis for the organization in the subsequent (1968) Aerospace Faculty.

In 1967, at the Department of Design and Construction of Aircraft, the first in the USSR student design bureau of space technology "Iskra" was created.

In 1970, in accordance with the intergovernmental agreement between the USSR and India (1966), MAI took part in the creation of the faculty aviation technology at Bombay Institute of Technology. More than 20 professors and teachers of the MAI worked at the BTI from 1970 to 1974.

On October 26, 1978, the first successful launch of a student artificial satellite Earth "Radio-2", created by SKB MAI "Iskra".

In 1980 for huge contribution in the matter of training specialists, in the year of its fiftieth anniversary, the Institute was awarded the Order of the October Revolution.

In 1998, the Faculty of Foreign Languages ​​was established, which trains public relations specialists and linguists for the aviation industry.

On March 31, 2015, by order of the Ministry of Education and Science, the MAI was reorganized by joining MATI to it.

More than 50 years ago, on orders from enterprises of the military-industrial complex, MAI began and developed the training of specialists in the entire life cycle of products in the field of rocket science, astronautics, as well as in the field of weapons systems and precision weapons, programs for supporting aerospace complexes. Subsequently, with the participation of MAI, a number of other universities were created. In 2009, MAI won the competitive selection of university development programs and is currently one of 29 universities to which the Government of the Russian Federation has assigned the category of "national research university" (Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 02.11.2009 No. 1613-r).

The accumulated scientific and pedagogical, educational and scientific and methodological experience, the presence of a unique technological base, extensive ties with aerospace enterprises allow MAI to train highly qualified specialists whose level of training, knowledge, skills and abilities correspond to modern requirements domestic and global labor markets. Today, such specialists are in high demand by the enterprises of the aerospace and defense industries of our country.

Graduates

Total graduates

175 000+

Over the years since its founding, more than 175,000 specialists for aviation and space-rocket science and industry have left the walls of the MAI, to which 60,000 graduates of MATI joined in 2015 can be added.

Separately, it is worth noting that MAI is the leader among civilian universities in terms of the number of graduates who have become cosmonauts and test pilots.

Thus, among the MAI graduates there are 23 pilot-cosmonauts who have worked in space for a total of more than 15 years. 14 of them made 65 exits in outer space. Many graduate cosmonauts are still working in the cosmonaut corps.

MAI constantly monitors the career achievements of its graduates, including 29 general directors, 9 general designers, 38 chief designers, 4 directors, 97 other senior managers of specialized enterprises.

Today, university graduates form the backbone of enterprises of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia, State Corporation Roscosmos, State Corporation Rostec, JSC UAC, JSC Corporation Tactical Missiles, JSC Concern VKO Almaz-Antey.

Most of the samples of modern (in service and (or) in operation) aviation and space-rocket technology were created under the guidance and with the direct participation of MAI graduates. As Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences E. A. Fedosov noted, “it is not necessary to say which aircraft and missiles produced during the life of the MAI, its graduates took a certain part in the creation - in all of them.”

Information about the university

At the beginning of the twentieth century, there was an intensive development of aviation science and technology. This has led to an increased demand for specialists with appropriate qualifications in the industry. The initiator of the creation of special centers for research and training of engineering personnel was Professor N. E. Zhukovsky. Realizing the importance this issue, in 1930, on the basis of the aeromechanical faculty of the Moscow Higher Technical School, VAMU (Higher Aeromechanical School) was organized with an aeronautic, engine building and aircraft building department. In August 1930, this institution was renamed the Moscow Aviation Institute.

In the memorable year 1930, the MAI hosted the first graduation of a large number of aviation engineers, many of whom Teaching Staff educational institution. In the same period, postgraduate studies appeared, in which designers and scientists were enrolled, who later became widely known.

The structure of the educational institution was constantly improved, adjusting to new requirements and discoveries in the aviation industry. That is why in 1933 the Faculty of Engineering and Economics appeared at the institute, which trained specialists in such areas as economics and the organization of the aviation industry. And in 1935, the Faculty of Aircraft Weapons appeared, where students were trained to handle aircraft combat installations, as well as navigation and radio equipment.

By 1940, the institute consisted of 5 faculties, 38 departments, 24 specialized classrooms, 22 laboratories, equipped training workshops, and a flight training detachment. After the war, specialized lecture courses and experimental installations on rocket and jet engines began to be developed at the MAI to train specialists, taking into account new discoveries in science. In the 50s, departments for the design and design of rockets were opened, and in the 80s, the MAI-89 ultralight aircraft was developed, which subsequently set a record for the speed of ascent to a height of three thousand meters. In 1998, the Moscow Aviation Institute received a certificate confirming the right to develop light civil aircraft.

Today, the university is recruiting students for the following faculties:

• Aviation equipment;
• Aerospace;
• aircraft engines;
• Applied mathematics and physics;
• Radiovtuz MAI;
• foreign languages;
• Robotic and intelligent systems;
• social engineering;
• pre-university training;
• Aircraft radio electronics;
• Applied mechanics;
• Control systems, informatics and electric power industry.

In addition, the Military Institute of the MAI, the Engineering and Economic Institute of the MAI, as well as the Institute for Advanced Studies and Retraining of the MAI are involved as faculties.

The Moscow Aviation Institute operates full-time, part-time and part-time forms of education (evening), which makes learning as convenient as possible. Thanks to multi-level training in various specialties, applicants can receive:

• elementary education;
