XX International Scientific Symposium of Students and
Young Scientists "Problems of Geology and Subsurface
development" in Honor of Academician M.A. Usov is held from
th
th
4 till 8 April, 2016 at Institute of Natural Resources, Tomsk
Polytechnic University.
National Research Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) was
founded in 1896. This is the first university in Asian part of Russia which
has trained more than 150,000 specialists. In 2013 TPU was ranked
among 15 best higher educational institutions of Russia. At present
22,800 students study at TPU in 87 qualified specialists’ programmes, 26
bachelor’s degree programmes and 104 masters’ degree programmes
under supervision of 1,340 Ph.D. holders, 325 Professors, 22 Members of
Russian Academy of Sciences and 29 Honored Workers of Science and
Technology. TPU includes 11 institutes, 99 departments, 17 scienceeducational centers, 65 science-research laboratories including 21
international ones, and research nuclear reactor. TPU was a fundamental
base for 20 associated universities and Research Institutes in Russia.
Institute of Natural Resource (INR) of Tomsk Polytechnic
University celebrated its 100 anniversary in 2001. It was founded by V.A.
Obruchev – the fist geologist in Siberia, member of USSR Academy of
Sciences, Hero of Socialist Labor, the first laureate of the Lenin Prize,
twice laureate of the State Prize, Honorary President of USSR
Geographic Society.
INR is the first institute of geological education and geological
science in Asian part of Russia. Mining investigations and studies done
by V.A. Obruchev are still applied in exploration and development of
mineral resources not only in Siberia, but also in the Far East, north-east
of Russia and Middle Asia.
Among 35,000 INR graduates are outstanding scientists,
engineers and manufacturers - М.А. Usov was the first Siberian man
who became an Academician and who played a great role in the
development of mining industry in Siberia; Academician К.I. Satpaev
was the founder and the first President of Kazakh Academy of Sciences;
Professor N.N. Urvantsev was the discoverer of Norilsk mining region;
Professor М.К. Korovin was the first who studied oil-and-gas-bearing
capacity of Western Siberia, and many other great scientists. More than
450 graduates became discoverers of mineral deposits, 50 - laureate of
the Lenin and State Prizes, more than 250 – D.Sc holders 1,600 – Ph.D.
holders, 15 – associates of the Academy of Sciences, 5 - Heroes of
Socialist Labor.
Today, INR is a large educational (more than 2,600 full-time
students) and scientific center in the sphere of geology and petroleum
recovery which comprises 16 departments,10 Research and Development
Centers and Innovative Educational Centers, 24 scientific research
laboratories. Among 357 institute staff, 7 are Academicians and
Correspondent Members of Russian Academy of Sciences, 58 Professors
and 221 Ph.D. holders. Institute prepares D.Sc and Ph.D. holders in 33
scientific fields.
