BRIEF HISTORY

In March 1928 in Dnipropetrovsk Mining Institute training mining constructors has begun and October 1, 1930 department "Mines Drifting" was established. Professor I. Novosiltsev was appointed as a head of the department. Before the war the department was also headed by Assoc. Prof. Vereskun G.Kamyaniy P. and Prof. Belaienko F. 

In the first educational plans the main principles of training of engineers were deep general engineering and specialized training, versatility and practical training at the mines of Karahanda, Donbass and others. 

During the Second World War the training mine constructors continues in Karahanda. During this period the department is headed by Assoc. Prof. Marshak I. 

In the postwar period constrcucters for the mining industry were extremely needed. During this period the department was headed by Assoc. Prof. Vereskun G., Marshak I., prof. Belaenko F.A. and Kozhushko Yu. The main scientific works were related to the restoration and development of Donetsk, Kryvyi Rih and Nikopol-Manganese basins. In 1950's the department conducted research on explosive destruction physics, rock heaving nature and workings stability. 

Since 1965, the department was headed by Dr. Sc. Maksymov O. After the expansion it was titled as "Construction of mines and underground structures". 

Much attention was paid to the quality of the educational process. The department had main mining and construction courses since the 60's. High students consciousness, serious attitude to education allowed to prepare high-class specialists such as: Striltsiv E.V. - Director of the “Дніпрогіпрошахт” Institute; Head of the Department of the Coal Industry Ministryof the USSR, Polak E.; - deputy Minister of Capital constructing of the Coal Industry Ministry of the USSR, Poltavets V.- Minister of Coal Industry of Ukraine, Director of the "Луганськдіпрошахт" InstituteKucherskaya N. - Chairman of Navoi MMC Board, Chairman of the " Кизилкумредметзолото ", Honored Engineer of Uzbekistan, Hero of Uzbekistan, Reva V. - Director of ВНІМІOutstanding specialists Bilichenko N.Lazorina A., Drukovaniy M., Comir V. and others became Doctors of Science, Professors, Headof Departments. 

This period students' practices are conducted at leading enterprises of Western and Central Donbass. Both researchersgraduate students and students made a tremendous contribution in construction of the Western Donbass mines. 

Since 1990, the Department of Construction and Geomechanics has been headed by Dr. Sc. Shashenko O. During these years, a great education and training work has been done. The "Mine and underground construction" specialty had three specializations: construction and reconstruction of mines; urban underground construction; construction of roads and tunnels, and two levels of preparation - Bachelor or Master. The list of practice bases has expanded: the corporations "Укртунельбуд", "Київметробуд", "Харківметробуд" have been added. Basic market requirements such as computer skills, knowledge of economics, management and foreign languages are provided in the frame of training program. Considering the modern construction trends, since 2006 training engineers on “Industrial and Civil Construction” specialty started. 

 Since 2015, the Department of Construction, Geotechnics and Geomechanics has beed headed by Prof. Gapieiev S. Applicants are trained at two educational levels - Bachelor and Master (specialty 184 Mining and 192 Construction and Civil Engineering) and educational and scientific level Doctor of Philosophy (specialty 184 Mining and 131 Applied Mechanics). There are the following educational and voluntary training programs: Bachelors in "Mining" and "Construction and Civil Engineering"; Masters in "Mine and underground construction", "Construction and civil engineering", Doctors of Philosophy in "Mining" and "Applied Mechanics". 

Over the past 90 years, the staff of the department has trained more than 2,800 mining engineers, about 150 civil engineers, published more than 3,000 scientific papers, received about 200 copyright certificates and patents, made 5 discoveries, defended 95 PhD and 15 doctoral dissertations, published 110 monographs and more than 60 textbooks.
