Dear friends and colleagues!

Program 2023.

In 2023, our symposium is dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Penza State University. Penza State University traces its history back to the formidable military year of 1943. It was formed on the basis of the Odessa Industrial Institute evacuated to Penza by order of the All-Union Committee for Higher Education under the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR "On the resumption of the activities of the Odessa Industrial Institute in the city of Penza" dated July 3, 1943.

Penza University was opened under the name "Penza Industrial Institute" on November 1, 1943 and consisted of 11 departments at that time. In 1959, by order of the Minister of Higher Education of the USSR, the Penza Industrial Institute was renamed the Penza Polytechnic Institute, and the Penza Civil Engineering Institute (now the University of Architecture and Civil Engineering) was formed on the basis of the Civil Engineering Faculty. On July 5, 1993, by order of the Chairman of the State Committee of the Russian Federation for Higher Education, the Penza Polytechnic Institute was renamed the Penza State Technical University. On January 22, 1998, by order of the Minister of General and Vocational Education of the Russian Federation, Penza State Technical University was renamed Penza State University. Currently, more than 15 thousand students study at the university. The teaching staff consists of almost two thousand teachers.

Sincerely, Organizing Committee of the Symposium.
