History

edit

Don State Technical University was established on May 20, 1930. It was originally named North Caucasus Institute of Agricultural Engineering and had two faculties namely, Agricultural engineering and Metalworking. In 1938 the institute was renamed as the Institute of Agricultural Engineering. In 1937, it began its cooperation with Rostselmasch[3] and developed combine harvester Stalinets-1, which was represented at Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne in Paris. In 1940, there were 21 departments and 14 degree programs. In 1941, the institute as well as Rostselmash were evacuated to Tashkent. Many buildings of the institute were destroyed by German bombs. Teaching began again in August, 1943. In the late 1940s they began redevelopment to combine harvesters for maize and sunflowers based upon Stalinets.
