Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography: history, description, faculties and reviews. Universities and institutes for surveyors Gou VPO Siberian State Geodetic Academy

The Omsk Geodetic Institute (OGI), also called the Siberian Astronomical and Geodetic Institute (SAGI), was opened in 1932 by decision of the Main Geodetic Directorate of the People's Commissariat of Heavy Industry (NKTP) - as an industrial institute. The question of organizing a university to train geodetic engineers for Siberia was raised at various regional and all-Union conferences. Order on the appointment of V.S. Pankov and about. Director of the OGI, as well as his orders were dated 08/01/1932.

In 1932, students were recruited for three departments: astronomy and geodetic, photogeodetic and cartographic and geodetic. The structure of the institute initially did not have departments. By order of V.S. Pankova only 03/16/1934. the departments of geodesy and astronomy were organized with heads, respectively, P.A. Khodorovich (part-time) and I.D. Chulkov.

In Omsk, the geodetic institute worked for almost two years, and in 1934, by decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR (SNK USSR) No. 77 dated January 11, 1934. was reorganized into the Geodesy Faculty of the Siberian Construction Institute (Sibstrin). In accordance with this resolution, the director of Sibstrin on 04/09/1934 issued his order on the organization of the astronomy and geodesy faculty with the appointment of V.S. Pankov. his dean from September 1, 1934 to June 20, 1935. The heads of the departments of geodesy and astronomy are appointed P.A. Khodorovich, and I.D. Chulkov. In 1936, the faculty already had three departments: lower geodesy (head of department N.G. Bazhanov), higher geodesy and astronomy (head of department S.Ya. Belykh), cartography (head of department I.G. . Nagaev). And on January 1, 1937, two more new departments appeared at the faculty: astronomy (head of department I.N. Yazev); physical geography (head of department P.S. Belorussov).

Already in 1938, it was planned to create a branch geodetic institute in Novosibirsk within the framework of the GUGK. Novosibirsk AGP was entrusted with the construction of an educational building and dormitories. To prepare for the opening of the Novosibirsk Institute of Geodesy, Aerial Photography and Cartography Engineers (NIIGAiK), by order of the GUGK dated November 10, 1939, acting. A.I. was appointed director of the institute. Agroskin.

In 1940, the charter of the institute was approved. In the fall of 1940, the first intake of students for the 1st year took place and the transfer of teachers and students of all educational, laboratory and economic property of the geodetic faculty of NISS to the jurisdiction of NIIGAiK.

Thus, from August 1940, NIIGAiK began to function independently. In accordance with the Charter, the institute had three faculties and 11 departments. But due to the outbreak of the Patriotic War in July 1941, the structure of the institute was reduced - there was only one dean’s office and 4 departments: astronomy and gravimetry, geodesy, cartography and the foundations of Marxism-Leninism. At the end of 1942-1943. all departments and three faculties were restored.

Beginning in 1943, postgraduate studies were opened at the institute. Postgraduate students of Professor B.V. Bazilevsky were supervised after 1945 (astronomy) and (geodesy). In 1946, there were three faculties: astronomy and geodetic, aerial photogeodetic and cartographic (deans: N.V. Shubin, I.I. Markson, G.I. Znamenshchikov).

In 1946, NIIGAiK was transferred from the GUGK to the jurisdiction of the USSR Ministry of Higher Education (MVO). In 1948, in addition to three specialties, a new one was opened - engineering geodesy, and since 1951 the department of engineering geodesy was opened.

On the basis of the Faculty of Geodesy it was organized in 1969. Novosibirsk Research Institute of Applied Geodesy (NIIPG), whose first director was V.F. Chernikov.

In 1956 K.L. came to the leadership of NIIGAiK. Provorov after double defense of his candidate and doctoral dissertations. I had experience as the chief engineer of the Novosibirsk AGP. The period of leadership of K.L. Provorov (1956-1970), in the history of NIIGAiK turned out to be the brightest and most fruitful. During the years of his rectorship, an educational and laboratory building, two dormitory buildings and a residential building were built and put into operation. During this period, a training ground was built on the Inya River, near Izdrevaya station. During the 60s and subsequent years, many new training courses were introduced: on computers, radio-electronic measurement methods, satellite methods; new faculties were opened (correspondence - 1959, optical - 1964), a number of new departments. During this period, new technical teaching aids were introduced and a number of textbooks were written. During these years, many young graduates were involved in scientific research and the educational process, and a significant number of candidate and doctoral dissertations were defended. So the following became doctors: V.Ya. Finkovsky (1963), A.V. Butkevich (1964), G.A. Meshcheryakov (1964), A.A. Vizgin (1966), G.I. Znamenshchikov (1966), A.N. Gridchin (1968), V.V. Buzuk (1970), V.G. Konusov (1970).

In 1968 The scientific research sector (SRS) was organized. In 1977, the training of foreign students began, and in 1981. the dean's office was created.

In 1979, the institute opened two specialized councils for the defense of candidate dissertations: in the scientific specialty 00.24.01 “Geodesy” and in the specialty 05.24.03 “Cartography”.

By the 80s, all geodetic organizations in Western and Eastern Siberia were provided with specialists, graduates of NIIGAiK.

In 1983, for its services in training specialists for the national economy and scientific research, by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on April 5, the institute was awarded the Order of the Badge of Honor.

By the beginning of 1993, the university had five faculties, the student population numbered 2,700 people, training was carried out in 7 specialties, and the number of scientific and teaching staff was 290 people.

A new form of applied research work was the participation of department teachers in a grant competition. The result was the winning of three grants from the Novosibirsk Regional Administration in a competition.

In 1994, the institute received a new status and name: Siberian State Geodetic Academy (SSGA). In 1994-1995 Two institutes appeared in the structure of the SSGA: Institute of Optics and Optical Technologies, director O.K. Ushakov. and the Institute of Cadastre and Geographic Information Systems, director V.B. Zharnikov. The Institute of Geodesy and Management was formed by the decision of the Academic Council of the SSGA, on July 1, 1997, on the basis of the geodetic faculty consisting of seven departments and two faculties, A.P. Karpik became its director, deputy Director Padve V.A.

On the basis of the aerial photogeodetic faculty on September 28, 1999. The Institute of Remote Sensing and Environmental Management was created (director Yu.V. Dementyev, deputy A.P. Guk).

In November 2001, in order to increase the efficiency of the academy's activities in the field of distance and correspondence education, the Institute of Distance Learning (IDL) was created. The institute included: correspondence faculty, branches in the cities of Yekaterinburg, Toguchin, Bolotnoye, r.p. Linevo, representative office in Kemerovo. The creation of a branch in Karaganda, Republic of Kazakhstan, is in the process of being formalized.

There are more than 20 universities in the Russian Federation whose profile is geodesy and related specialties. One of the largest in this area is the Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography. Let's get to know him in more detail.

Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography: history

The functioning of the future alma mater is associated with the spring of 1779, when the opening of the Konstantinovsky Land Surveying School (“branch” of the Land Survey Office) took place in the capital, which was dedicated to the birth of the second grandson of Catherine the Great. In 1796, the work of the land surveying school was enshrined in law, and in 1835 it was transformed into the Land Survey Institute of Konstantinovsk (by decree of Nicholas I). According to the new charter, the duration of study at the institute was six years, in addition, the study of new disciplines was introduced: architecture, mineralogy, foreign languages, etc. In the 40s of the 19th century, an observatory was created at the university.

The winter of 1930 was marked by a split in the Land Survey Institute. Now it has become the Moscow Institute of Land Management Engineers and Geodetic Representation. After 6 years, the university received a new name: Moscow Institute of Geodesy, Cartography, and Aerial Photography Engineers. At that time, it consisted of only four faculties (geodesy, cartography, aerial photogeodesy, geodetic instrumentation).

The period from 1957 to 1967 was significant for the institution, when the head of the aerial photography department B.N. Rodionov designed a number of space programs that made it possible to make plans for individual parts of the Moon on a large scale. In 1979, MIIGAiK was replenished with a new building, where two years later a faculty was formed where applied cosmonautics was studied. Two years later, a new building of the institute was put into operation. In the spring of 1993, the university was reorganized and since then has had a new name - Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography .

Structure

Being a large educational and scientific-production complex, the university consists of:

six faculties of full-time education and one - distance learning (evening and correspondence departments);
Department of Education for Foreigners;
center for postgraduate retraining and advanced training.

In addition, MIIGAiK is represented by:

postgraduate and doctoral studies;
numerous specialized laboratories;
training and production center;
two training grounds;
educational and computing faculty centers;
educational and geodetic museum;
library.

Some numbers

Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography is a full member of the Association of Universities of the Russian Federation. It is attended by undergraduate and graduate students from Russia, the republics of the former Soviet Union and foreign countries - about five thousand people in total.

The teaching staff includes more than 400 teachers and about a hundred researchers, of whom 20 are corresponding members of various academies, 70 are professors and doctors of science, 228 are associate professors and candidates of science.

Scientific practice

The Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography, headed by cosmonaut, MA academician, Professor V.P. Savin, is actively engaged in scientific work in the field of geodesy and related fields, and carries out aerospace developments. The University identifies a number of priority areas in its scientific activities:

geodetic support of the cadastre of lands and real estate of the Russian Federation;
automated processing, interpretation and use of aerospace information;
development of expert geoinformation systems;
systems and methods for sensing the Earth over long distances, their mapping and tracking;
discoveries in digital photogrammetry and CFS.

Every year, about 60 research projects are carried out on a budgetary and investment basis to study leading scientific directions. The university’s research personnel are “forged” through postgraduate and doctoral studies in seven specialties.

Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography: faculties

MIIGAiK carries out the educational process at six faculties. Geodetic - the very first of them, was formed in the spring of 1917. It prepares graduates in:

Applied geodesy - with full-time study for five years at the qualification level "Specialist".
Geodesy and remote sensing - here they study for bachelors and masters (4 and 2 years, respectively)
Applied informatics - preparation of bachelors (4 years).

The Faculty of Cartography and Geoinformatics trains students in the same field: 4 years - bachelor's degree, 2 years - master's degree. The Faculty of Optical Information Technology Systems trains specialists:

in the field of optical and electronic devices and special-purpose systems;
optics;
laser technology and related technologies;
information security.

The full-time department offers bachelor's and master's degrees.

Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography (MIIGAiK) is one of the leaders among institutions with the specialty “Information Security”, since its graduates of a wide profile are capable of organizing and maintaining the safety of various types of secret information at all levels of protection.

The Faculty of Territorial Development is engaged in training and retraining of personnel, as well as scientific developments in the following areas:

real estate cadastre;
geographic information systems;
accounting, economic assessment and real estate management;
theoretical development and planning.

The Faculty of Humanities is represented by two specialties: “Jurisprudence” and “Architecture”. The Applied Faculty of Cosmonautics trains specialists in geodesy and remote sensing, as well as in information systems and technologies.

Correspondence education

Evening and correspondence forms at MIIGAiK provide training for a period of 4.5 years. Here they study optics, study geodesy and remote sensing, and also specialize in land management and cadastres.

Student Feedback

The Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography evokes conflicting reviews from former students: some admire the high level of teaching and the ancient history of the university, others complain about the depressing state of the premises and the ambiguous presentation of educational material.

But if negative reviews are dictated by subjective emotions, then the “advantages” of the university are outlined quite clearly:

rich history of the university;
high level of teaching of both specialized and humanitarian subjects;
a large number of practical exercises;
presence of a military department.

In addition, there is a rich and interesting student life here.

Details

For those who have decided to choose the profession of surveyor as their life choice, the country's universities are ready to provide the opportunity to obtain a higher education. This profession is very relevant and in demand in the modern labor market.

Obtaining a higher education for a surveyor is necessary to apply knowledge in practice. And the range of application of this profession is quite wide. In studying the global dimensions of planet Earth, one cannot do without the knowledge and work of a surveyor. The scope of application of this profession is especially wide in modern construction. The surveyor goes through all stages of construction. From design to commissioning of a construction project.

Obtaining a higher education as a surveyor and further work are useful not only in studying the size of our planet. Many things that people use in everyday life were also created by the work of a surveyor. For example, such popular things as maps and plans. Modern motorists actively use GPS devices. The data for the operation of this device is supplied by the geodesy service.

Obtaining higher education as a surveyor

The need for specialists in such an industry as geodesy is very high. There are many courses, colleges and schools that offer training in this profession. And yet, in increasing the level of mastery of the entire complex of knowledge of the surveyor profession, higher education will be the best choice. The duration of study at universities in this profession is five years. Experienced teachers will guide the student step by step - from simple to complex. A large teaching staff is called upon to help surveyors obtain higher education and teach them the specifics and intricacies of the profession. Many teachers have extensive experience not only in practical work, but also in scientific work. The team of teachers always includes doctors of technical sciences and researchers.

Obtaining a second higher geodetic education

Among the university students, more and more often there are not only yesterday’s schoolchildren, but also those who wish to receive a second higher education in the specialty of surveyor. Master new production technologies and improve your professional level. What is it for? Many people improve their level of knowledge. Time does not stand still. In geodesy, as in many fields of science, there is a constant development of methods and technology for measuring and processing data. New disciplines are emerging that just recently did not exist at all. Methods for analyzing and processing measurement results are being developed. The devices themselves are also changing. Classic levels and theodolites are being replaced by a new generation of devices - electronic. The developers of new generation devices have done a great job of collecting all the best achievements of optical devices and combining them into one device.

Electronic total stations have become a real revolutionary breakthrough in technology and measurement methods. To improve a qualitatively different level of knowledge in the surveyor profession, the institute will be the right choice.

Where can a surveyor receive higher education? Universities for surveyors

To obtain higher education, a surveyor has nowhere to roam. Not many universities in our country train surveyors in higher and second higher education programs. But, fortunately, this does not affect the quality of preparation in any way. One of the recognized universities in the capital, where a surveyor can receive higher and second higher education, is the Moscow State University of Geodesy, known to graduates as the MIIGAiK Institute.

Using MIIGAiK as an example, you can familiarize yourself with the list of faculties where future specialists receive higher education:

geodesic,
cartography and geoinformatics,
optical information systems and technologies,
economics and territorial management,
humanitarian,
applied cosmonautics and photogrammetry.

After reading only the names of the faculties, it becomes clear how multifaceted the very concept of surveyor is. It is safe to say that each faculty represents a separate branch of geodesy. And in order to find your choice in such a profession as a surveyor, higher education offers a wide range of choices in the areas of this science.

Undoubtedly, the specialty of applied geodesy is currently in great demand. This is due to the high pace of construction in Russia. At every construction site it is impossible to do without using the labor of a surveyor. Each stage of construction undergoes geodetic control and monitoring of the progress of work.

Unfortunately, construction practice has bitter experience of mistakes and financial losses on those construction projects whose managers decided to save money by involving a professional surveyor in the construction process. Many managers, when constructing structures, especially low-rise residential buildings, believe that the knowledge in the field of geodesy acquired at a construction university is quite sufficient.

There are often cases when gross errors in observing the geometric dimensions of structures led to enormous financial costs.

The advanced methods that surveyors master during their five-year training period are not just empty words of “higher education as a surveyor.” The knowledge and experience that specialists acquire immediately find their application. During the training process, students receive not only theoretical knowledge, but also practical experience in using advanced technologies for measuring and processing measurement results.

At the same time, in the construction organization itself, there are very rare cases when graduates of construction universities were immediately entrusted with construction. In order for a young specialist to be entrusted with managing a work site, an introductory period is required.

The Siberian State Geodetic Academy is a university that was founded in 1933. I received a certificate of state accreditation in early November 2010.
The Siberian Geodetic Academy is a unique educational institution in the city of Novosibirsk, which has become the largest scientific and educational center in the country. There are only two similar universities in Russia, and only five in the world. The academy’s great pride is its graduates, who work both in their homeland and in many continents of the world. The basis for stability and career growth of the Siberian Academy is the continuously growing, in modern conditions, demand for university specialists.
The Academy trains professional personnel in basic specialties, as well as training in professions that are non-traditional for the university profile, such as hotel and tourism economics, real estate economics, environmental economics and organizational management.
At the present time, the Geodetic Academy is a major scientific and educational center of the international and all-Russian level. In its structure, the Academy is a multidisciplinary holding, which is divided into five institutes: the Institute of Optical Technologies and Optics, the Institute of Remote Environmental Management and Sensing, the Institute of Management and Geodesy, the Institute of Geographic Information Systems and Cadastre, and the Institute of Distance Learning.
In the learning process, multimedia lecture halls and display classrooms operate, and information technologies are widely used. Specialized laboratories are equipped with the most modern instruments and equipment. Professional retraining in a block of programs in the field of cadastre, geodesy, real estate, land management and processing of remote sensing data is given great importance.
The Siberian Academy has well-established partnerships with leading mining, processing and oil and gas companies. With most administrations of the constituent entities of the Siberian Federal District. Using modern technologies, highly qualified specialists perform a huge range of research and production work. Currently, specialists from the Geodetic Academy are implementing a very important project called GLONASS/GPS, which includes the deployment of nineteen active stations throughout the Novosibirsk region. During training, they have a great opportunity to undergo practical training in many large companies in Russia. The Academy has no problem finding employment for its graduates.
