D. Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia (MUCTR) (Шаблон:Lang-ru) is a public research university in Moscow, and is the largest Russian center for education and research in the field of chemical technology. The history of MUCTR can be traced back to the Moscow Industrial School initially founded in 1898. The university acquired its current name and status in 1992 with its Moscow campus mainly located on Miusskaya Square and in Tushino. The university's other two branches are situated in Novomoskovsk (Tula Oblast) and Tashkent (Uzbekistan). In 2023, the university was ranked # 1,955 by US News & World Report.

The university offers bachelors, specialists credential, masters and PhD programs in various areas of chemistry, sustainable development, petrochemistry, biotechnology, materials of modern energy and nanotechnology, and several other specialities.

The D. Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia is one of the leading centers of scientific and innovative research. The university regularly implements projects carried out under federal target programs, as well as numerous grants initiated by scientific foundations. In 2020, the university carried out 202 research projects, with 40 grants from the Russian Foundation for Basic Research, and 9 from the Russian Scientific Foundation. As of 2021, MUCTR has more than 120 cooperation agreements with universities and companies from more than 35 countries around the globe. In 2018, under the state program "Industry Development and Increasing its Competitiveness," the university founded the Mendeleev Engineering Center, which now hosts most of its laboratories and scientific equipment. As of 2021, preparations are underway at the Tushino complex to create an innovative scientific and technological center called "Mendeleev Valley". The Mendeleev Valley project was approved by a government decree issued in 2019.

History

The Moscow Industrial School

On January 9, 1880, the Moscow City Duma approved the founding of several realschule in Moscow. The Duma would later allocate 100 thousand rubles in support of the project for the purchase of land and more than 260 thousand rubles for the construction of buildings. A year later, the Duma issued a decree establishing a new metropolitan institution - a full-time realschule with mechanical-technical and chemical-technical departments. As initially planned, the school was supposed to have a boarding house able to accommodate from 50 to 100 students. The inclusion of dormitories led to additional expenditures, and the overall construction cost for the institute increased to 360 thousand rubles. However, the very same year, construction of the school was suspended as a result of a new program of administrative reforms initiated by Tsar Alexander II of Russia. The implications of these reforms included the reformation of technical education in the Russian Empire while a new special commission of the Ministry of National Education was established to deliberate on the matter of technical education. According to the reports provided by the commission, the Moscow City Duma was planning "to build in Moscow an industrial school (secondary technical, four-year) with five general education preparatory classes." Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

In the end, the Moscow Industrial School would be founded towards the end of the 1890s. Initially, the building was supposed to be constructed on Шаблон:Ill street, but this site was subsequently given to the Pushkin Museum.nstead the new site for the Moscow Industrial School was allocated on the Miusskaya Square – it was around 4000 square sazhens.Шаблон:Sfn

On November 18, 1896, the Special Construction Commission for the Construction of Industrial School Buildings was established with the geologist Alexander Krylov as its chairman and Maxim Geppener as the primary architect. On December 30 of the same year, Krylov was appointed the first director of the LPA. According to plans for the project, the complex of buildings included a three-storey "school building" (currently part of the Main building of the Russian Chemical Technical University overlooking Miusskaya Square), a three-storey "house for teachers and servants" (now the children's technopark "Mendeleev Center"), as well as a one-story building for LPU service.Шаблон:Sfn In November 1896 the Russian architect Шаблон:Ill was appointed as the head of the commission dedicated to the construction of Moscow Industrial School buildings. On December 30 Geppener was also appointed as the first director of the Moscow Industrial School. Among the milestones included in this working project was the construction of a three-story educational building, a three-storey house for the professors and staff, and a one-storey campus for the facilities.Шаблон:Sfn

The ceremonial laying of the foundation stone of the Moscow Industrial School took place on May 23, 1898, and a decree issued by The State Council issued a decree that would imply opening the classes on July 1 of the same year. First, all the classes were held at the Stroganov Moscow State Academy of Arts and Industry with the result that students would only move into a new state-of-the-art campus equipped with all of the newest technologies in 1902 when construction was finally completed. The campus was finally inaugurated on the 24th of February, 1903. During the official opening ceremony, it was declared that the Moscow Industrial School would be named in honor of the 25th anniversary of the reign of the emperor Alexander II of Russia. The first faculty of the school were top graduates from Moscow State University, The Imperial Moscow Technical School, as well as retired officers.Шаблон:Sfn The first cohort of 27 students graduated in the spring of 1906.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

Moscow D. Mendeleev Institute of Chemical Technology (MCTI)

After the Russian Revolution of 1917, the name of Emperor Alexander II was removed from the title of the School. The following year the Moscow Industrial School would be renamed as the Moscow Chemical Technical College, and later, in 1919, it was given the name of the famous Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev. At that time, the Moscow Chemical Technical College was mostly training practical engineers.

However, the school would subsequently undergo a further spate of name changes and reorganisations under the new authorities. On December 22, 1920, the technical school was reorganised to become the D. Mendeleev Institute of Chemical Technology (MCTI) until on February 13, 1923, the school was again renamed the Moscow Institute of Chemical Technology (MHTI).Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn With this reorganisation MHTI became the first specialised chemical engineering educational institution in the country.Шаблон:Sfn

In the early 1930s, the United Moscow Institute of Chemical Technology was created on the basis of MCTI and consisted of five main branches:Шаблон:Sfn

• The Moscow D. Mendeleev Institute of Chemical Technology
• The Faculty of Chemistry of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University (then reorganised into the NBC Protection Military Academy named after Kliment Voroshilov)
• The Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy of the Second Moscow State University (subsequently reorganised into the Moscow State University of Fine Chemical Technologies)
• The Faculty of Chemistry at the Moscow State University (returned to Moscow State University)
• The Moscow Institute of Chemical Engineering Engineers (founded February 22, 1931, on the basis of the mechanical department of the Moscow Chemical Engineering Institute, later reorganised into the Moscow Institute of Chemical Engineering)

By 1933, the United Moscow Institute of Chemical Technology had been dissolved as a parent entity, and the Moscow D. Mendeleev Institute of Chemical Technology became an autonomous educational institution.Шаблон:Sfn

At the onset of World War II MCTI would be partially evacuated to Kokand (Uzbekistan) as part of the evacuation of essential industries conducted by the Soviet authorities in response to Operation Barbarossa the German military invasion of the Soviet Union. On March 23, 1943, the institute would be brought back from KokandШаблон:Sfn and on June 15 of the same year, a new branch of the institute would be opened in the Russian city Dzerzhinsk operating until 1945.Шаблон:Sfn After the war in 1949, the Moscow D. Mendeleev Institute of Chemical Technology was granted the use of two building complexes formerly belonging to the Crafts School named after Шаблон:Ill on Miusskaya Square.Шаблон:Sfn A decade later, in the beginning of October 1959, MCTI expanded again to open another branch in Stalinogorsk (now – Novomoskovsk).Шаблон:Sfn By 1965 the institute started construction of a new student complex in Tushino, however, due to a partial work freeze at the beginning of the 1970s, the process of placing the Tushino building complex into operation took quite a longer time than originally forecast.Шаблон:Sfn Another campus constructed concurrently with the one in Tushino was also opened in Shelepikha in the 1970s.Шаблон:Sfn

MCTI was awarded the Order of Lenin in 1940 in accordance with a decree of the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn On February 11, 1971, the university would receive another prestigious award in the form of the Order of the Red Banner of Labour.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

MCTI has honorary degrees to outstanding scientists and public figures with the practice starting in 1961. Notable awardees of honorary MCTI degrees include Krishnasami Venkataraman, Шаблон:Ill, Dennis Meadows, Margaret Thatcher, Eberhard Diepgen, Jacques Cousteau, Samak Sundaravej, Galina Vishnevskaya, Yuri Oganessian, and others. MCTI faculty would also receive recognition such as in 1974, when Valery Sergievsky, Vladislav Nikolaev, Nikolai Kizim (teacher in the Novomoskovsk branch) and Evgeny Yurtov were awarded the Lenin Komsomol Prize in Science and Engineering for their work on thermodynamics and chemical kinetics.

University of Chemical Technology of Russia

After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1992, the Moscow Institute of Chemical Technology was renamed to become the D.I. Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia (MUCTR) which retained a focus on specialization in the fields of chemistry and chemical technologies.

From 1999 to 2010 MCTI and three other institutes (including the Moscow Aviation Institute, KBP Instrument Design Bureau in Tula, and NIKIET named after N. A. Dollezhal) were under one-sided US sanctions implemented after the backdrop of US-Iranian conflict. US government found the links between these research centers and Russian foreign policy towards Iran, claiming that these are "organizations promoting the development of weapons of mass destruction in other countries.".Шаблон:Sfn These sanctions would subsequently be lifted in 2010 after the US government recognized that contemporary Russian politics now "aligns with the interests of US foreign policy and security.".

Since 2015, the university has had the status of a federal state budgetary educational institution of higher education according to the decree issued by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, the university has the status of a federal state budgetary educational institution of higher education. In the same year the rector of the university Шаблон:Ill was fired because he was unable to comply with the obligation to increase teachers' salaries granted earlier by a decree of the President of Russia.

In 2016, the Ministry of Higher Education attempted to merge the University of Chemical Technology of Russia with the National University of Science and Technology MISiS. However, the plan was not implemented after as a public petition campaign initiated to preserve the autonomy of Mendeleev University gained several tens of thousands of signatures.

In September 2021, Professor Ilya Vorotyntsev was appointed as the acting rector of the university. As of 2021, the university included eight faculties, two institutes, the Higher Chemical College of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Children's Technopark, the Center for Digital Transformation, and various other research and educational centers and laboratories. The university prepares bachelors, specialists, masters, postgraduate and doctoral students for careers in the fields of chemical technology, sustainable development, petrochemistry, biotechnology and other areas. As of 2020, there were approximately 9,000 students enrolled at MUCTR, out of which around 800 hailed from the Commonwealth of Independent States, Myanmar, Iraq, India, China, United States, European Union, and African countries. In 2021 the Ministry of Higher Education included MUCTR in the new program "Priority 2030" aimed at supporting domestic universities. The program launched after the conclusion of a prior education initiative under the title Project 5-100. As a result of these programs, MUCTR became a part of the second group of universities in "Territorial and/or industry leadership", qualifying MUCTR to receive additional federal sponsorship till the end of 2022.

Research

In 2010–2014, under the “Megagrant programs”, MCTUR launched the International Laboratory of Functional Materials Based on Glass named after Academician P. D. Sarkisov. The laboratory was initially headed by the Italian scientist Albert Paleari and the head of the Department of Chemical Technology of Glass and Sitalls Vladimir Sigaev. One of the laboratory's key contributions has been the creation of radioactive microspheres that could be potentially used for the treatment of oncological diseases. In 2017 the university also launched the International Center for Laser Technologies which has been investigating femtosecond laser modification of the structures of optical materials. The center is currently headed by Peter Kazansky a professor from the Russian Foundation for Advanced Research Projects in the Defense Industry, the center developed an "eternal archive disk" based on nanostructured glass. Distinctive features of this material include its durability, resistance to aggressive environments and potential to store large amounts of information. As of 2020, a prototype of a data storage medium with a diameter of 120mm has been developed.

Specialists from MUCTR regularly publish articles in international peer-reviewed journals in collaboration with Russian and foreign colleagues. In 2020-2021 alone, the media reported about the following MCTUR-supported studies:

• search for new forms of delivery of targeted cancer drugs using silica gel;
• work on natural plastic components obtained from agricultural waste;
• development of an environmentally friendly and economical way of processing sulphur dumps at enterprises;
• creation of a new sorbent technology for an elusive form of radioactive iodine - iodomethane, which retains up to 99.5% of the dangerous isotopes;

• an alternative method of extracting xenon from natural gas and, as a result, reducing the cost of anaesthesia;
• development of new light-emitting devices based on aerogel from Silicon dioxide with embedded luminescent particles and much more.

In October 2018, the "Mendeleev Engineering Center" was founded with the support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education and the Ministry of Industry and Trade. The coordination of many scientific laboratories, including ones specialising in petrochemistry, agrochemistry, pharmaceuticals, radiochemistry, polymer chemistry, and fine organic synthesis has been achieved under the auspices of the Mendeleev Engineering Center. There are more than 80 units of the latest equipment for elemental and molecular analysis, electron microscopy, and determination of physicochemical parameters of solids and liquids. In 2020, the center's profit amounted to more than 4.8 million rubles, and its revenue - was 42.5 million rubles.

In 2019, the Russian government signed a decree on the creation of an Mendeleev Valley Innovation Scientific and Technological Centre on the territory of the MUCTR Tushino campus. According to the project description, the center is supposed to unite both scientific and business representatives to reduce the time between scientific discovery and its practical implementation. Particularly it might help to stipulate import substitution in Russia in the field of chemical industry. There are five main startup trends in the Mendeleev Valley – high tech, chemistry, agrochemistry, agrobiotechnology and biotechnology; medical and pharmaceutical chemistry; special purpose and high-energy substances. Center has three main clusters which are all curated by the Ministry of Industry and Trade. Initially, the number of private investments in the project was estimated at around 5 billion rubbles. The project was supposed to launch in 2020, however, as of the end of 2021 the working date has still not been confirmed.

MUCTR and its Novomoskovsk branch work on the development of the Composite Valley INTTS, located on 29 hectares special economic zone Uzlovaya in Tula oblast. The project was initially supported by the Tula State University and later approved by the Prime Minister of Russia Mikhail Mishustin in January 2021. The launch is scheduled for 2023. MUCTR announced its plans to invest in the research on high-tech chemistry that the university scientists would conduct in the center. Besides MUCTR, the project is supported by the Moscow State University, Rosatom, and the Russian Academy of Science.
