Description: 
The Institute was founded in August, 1918, as the Ivanovo-Voznesensk 
Polytechnic Institute. The present name was adopted several years later. 
More than 6,000 engineers and scientific workers have been graduated. 
Research on electric power for various industries, including the 
textile industry, is conducted. Other activities include research and 
development on electric motors and drives, generators, transformers, 
lubricating and transformer oils, and cable coatings. It has worked on 
automatic control systems, and has done basic research in heat and mass 
transfer, heat conductivity of metals and materials, deformation, and 
gasodynamics. The Institute has performed mathematical studies that have 
application to satellite and rocket trajectories and orbits, including 
two-body problems of translational and rotational motion and motion of a 
point above a revolving trajectory. It also has done laboratory testing of 
equipment manufactured elsewhere. 
The Institute offers courses in electric power stations, networks, 
and systems, electrification of industrial enterprises, thermal power 
installations, technology of water and fuel for electric power stations, 
industrial thermal power engineering (oven, gas-heat, and heat-transfer 
installations), electrical machinery and equipment, and automatic, tele- 
mechanic, and electrical measuring instruments and systems.
