History
It was founded in 1918 as Chemical Faculty of Ivanovo-Vosnesensk Polytechnic Institute. In 1930, Ivanovo-Vosnessensk Polytechnic Institute was split into four independent schools: Ivanovo Textile Institute, Ivanovo Power Institute, Civil Engineering Institute, and Ivanovo Institute of Chemistry and Technology (ICTI). The latter gained a new status in 1992 and was renamed to Ivanovo State Academy of Chemistry and Technology, and in 1998 it was renamed again, becoming Ivanovo State University of Chemistry and Technology.Education
The ISUCT has a multi-level system of higher education:Campus
The university is located in seven buildings: * The main building ("Г"). The building was built in 1930 by the project of academician Fomin. It is an architectural monument. * The building "A". This is a classroom building and it was built in the 1930s. * The building "Б". This is a circular building. It contains large auditoriums and the library. It was built in the 1970s. The building has an unofficial name "Банка" ("Banka", English: jar). * The building "В". The building has an unofficial name "высотка" ("visotka", English: high-rise building). It was built in the 1970s. * The Humanitarian building ("К"). This was built in 1930 as a student dormitory. It completely renovated in 2009. * The building "Д". The new academic building has been open since 2016. * The building "И". The university has 4 student hostels in a close proximity to the university buildings, a health and resort center, a country sport camp, cafes and canteens in all university buildings.Student life
The university hosts a large number of events weekly. The most famous traditional student events are celebrations of Chemist's Day, concerts of Student Club, scientific conference "Fundamental Sciences for a Specialist of the New Century", etc. The ISUCT offers students to realize their opportunities. The following organizations work at the university: * Student Club An association of talented ISUCT students, including dance groups, folklore ensembles, vocal groups, student theater,Research
Over the years of its existence the ISUCT has turned into a major center of fundamental and applied science. This was primarily promoted by the traditions laid down in different years by the founders of scientific schools and directions: N.N. Vorozhtsov, Ya.K. Syrkin, P.P. Budnikov, E.A. Shilov, K.B. Yatsimirsky, G.A. Krestov, V.P. Vasiliev, A.A. Spryskov, P.V. Moryganov, B.N. Melnikov, V.F. Borodkin, R.P. Smirnov, K.S. Krasnov, V.N. Kiselnikov, V.A. Shormanov, E.M. Rumyantsev, V.G. Melnikov and others. Today their scientific ideas are being continued and developed by leading scientists of the university, including honored scientists of the Russian Federation, honoured workers of the higher school of the Russian Federation, laureates of the prize of the President of the Russian Federation and the Government of the Russian Federation. The ISUCT pays great attention to the development of youth research projects. In 2019, the ISUCT has received more than 30 patents for inventions and won over 20 grants. Young scientists of the ISUCT regularly win all-Russian and international competitions. In 2019, representatives of the university received one-twentieth of all scholarships of theScientific infrastructure
The scientific infrastructure of ISUCT contains: *Testing and analytical centres (Center for collective use of research equipment, Testing center "Quality", Center for certification of goods and equipment "RegionTest") * Research Facilities (Institute of Macroheterocyclic Compounds Chemistry, Institute of Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Chemical Processes) *Scientific journals
The ISUCT publishes five scientific journals, three of which are included in the international scientific citation databases Web of Science and Scopus. All of them are included in the List of peer-reviewed scientific publications, in which the main scientific results of dissertations for the degree of candidate and doctor of science should be published.Izvestia Vuzov. Series: Khimia i Khimicheskaya Tekhnologia (Russian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Technology)
This journal is the oldest scientific journal published at ISUCT: in 2018 it celebrated its 60th anniversary. The founder and the first chief editor was Professor K.B. Yatsimirsky. A specific feature of the journal is its wide profile which allows one to represent materials on chemistry and chemical technology in Russian and in English. Periodicity is 12 issues per year.Macroheterocycles
The journal ''Macroheterocycles'' has been published at ISUCT since 2008 on the initiative of a Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Chemistry O.I. Koifman. The journal ''Macroheterocycles'' is a forum of the specialists studying macroheterocyclic compounds. It publishes original experimental and theoretical works (full papers and brief reports) and reviews on the synthesis, structure, physical and coordination chemistry of macroheterocycles as well as on their practical application.Russian Chemical Journal. Journal of the Russian Chemical Society after D.I. Mendeleev
The journal publishes analytical reviews devoted to the problems of chemical science, technology and education, original papers and brief reports. Most issues of the journal are thematic and are devoted to a specific area of science or technology. The ''Journal of the Russian Chemical Society'' was founded in 1869. The first editor was a Russian chemist, professor at the Imperial St. Petersburg University, corresponding member of St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences N.A. Menshutkin (1842–1907). In 1956 the journal was renamed. The All-Union Chemical Society established the ''Journal of the All-Union Chemical Society named after D.I. Mendeleev'' edited by Academician of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Doctor of Chemistry I.L. Knunyants. The journal was published inModern High Technologies
Regional supplement to the journal of theIzvestia Vuzov. Series: Economika, finansy i upravlenie proizvodstvom (Series "Economics, Finance and Production Management")
International activity
The ISUCT handles foreign students since early 1950th due to either intergovernmental agreements or direct contracts. More than 4000 students study at the University. Number of foreign students is more than 200. Students from different countries studied at the university at different times. These are citizens of Angola, Belarus, China, Congo, Mongolia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, etc. ISUCT is developing broad international contacts with universities and educational institutions of many countries of the world including Poland, Germany, Italy, Spain, China, Uzbekistan and others.Faculties and departments
