Ivanovo State Power University

History

Ivanovo State Power Engineering University was founded on the basis of the Mechanical Engineering Faculty of the Ivanovo-Voznesensky Polytechnic Institute in 1930 and until 1992 was called the Ivanovo Power Engineering Institute.

In 1992, the Ivanovo Power Engineering Institute was given the status of a state technical university.

In 1993, the work of the Russian-German seminar “Reliability of energy systems” began.

In 1994, Ivanovo State Energy University received a grant for educational exchanges from the United States News Agency.

In 1997, a doctoral program was opened in the specialties “Electrical complexes and systems, including their control and regulation”, “Automation of technological processes and production”, “Computer-aided design systems”.

In 2000, on the basis of the Ivanovo Machine-Building College, the Machine-Building College of the Ivanovo State Power Engineering University was formed. In 2001, the faculty of advanced training of teachers was opened, the development of the university is in accordance with the principles of education quality management.

In 2005, a full-scale simulator of the power unit was donated to the Ivanovo State Power Engineering University by the Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant, and an interfaculty training center was founded. Thanks to this, the structure of training specialists for the nuclear power industry at ISPU is consistent with the requirements for training operational personnel at nuclear power plants, and the training program is adapted to the training programs for VIUR, VIUT and complies with the requirements of NPP guidelines.

In 2007, a military training center was opened at the university to train officers of the signal troops serving under a contract.

In 2008, the university successfully passed an external audit and certification of the quality management system by experts from the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM).

In 2010, the specialties “Industrial Electronics” and “Nuclear Power Plants” were the first in Russia to be awarded the European quality mark EUR-ACE.

In 2010, ISPU became a member of the EU4M consortium – ERASMUS Mundus Master in Mechatronic and Micro-Mechatronic Systems.

In 2011, ISPU, along with 12 leading Russian universities that train personnel for the country’s nuclear industry, entered the “Consortium of flagship universities of the State Corporation” Rosatom ”
