history

In what was then Kuibyshev, around 30 companies and organizations from the aviation industry were evacuated during the course of the Second World War , so that there was a need for the training of aviation engineers on site. The university was founded from the Moscow State Aviation Institute MAI, which was also evacuated, on July 17, 1942 as the Kuibyshev Aviation Institute ( Куйбышевский авиационный институт ). The first directors were Viktor Alexandrowitsch Soifer and, from November 1942, Fyodor Ivanovich Stebichow. First of all, the important war production of the Ilyushin Il-2 was organized on site.

The first teachers were scientists who had to be evacuated from Moscow , Leningrad , Kiev , Kharkov and other cities of the USSR , for example, the vice-president of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR MD Millionschikow, the corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of the Belarusian SSR MG Krein , professor WA Soifer, NI Resnikow, MI Razumichin, WM Dorofejew and AA Komar.
