History of the Department

The Department of Building Constructions was established in 1970 and it was the part of the Faculty of Land Management. The first chief of the Department was S.M. Sokolov. In 1971 the Department became the part of the newly established Faculty of Architecture. In 1983 – the Department became the part of the Faculty of Agricultural Building.

During 1982-1987 the Department was headed by the assistant professor A.V. Mann, and since 1987 till 1994 – assistant professor V.M. Barabash. In 1994-2003 the Department was headed by the Honoured Scientist and Technician of Ukraine, Member of the Academy of Building of Ukraine and International Academy of Original Ideas, Doctor of Engineering, professor F.Ye. Klymenko. Since 2003 the Department has been headed by the assistant professor, acting professor I.M. Dobrianskyi.

The Department of Building Construction trains qualified workers according to the educational and qualification levels of “Bachelor”, “Specialist”, and “Master”. There are post graduate courses at the Department.
