History

Solving the problems of developing mineral deposits in Belarus requires the training of national engineering personnel in a number of mining specialties, including mining, underground mining, drilling, mineral processing, mining machines, modern geotechnologies, ecology and a number of others.

Many famous people studied and worked at the faculty, which in different years was called peat, mining and mechanical, and for some time was part of the faculty of energy construction. Suffice it to recall the dean of the peat faculty, the rector of the Belarusian Polytechnic Institute and the Minister of Secondary and Higher Education of the BSSR, associate professor M.V. Doroshevich, after whom one of the streets of Minsk is named. Academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Belarus I.I. Lishtvan. Among the graduates of the faculty were the Minister of the Fuel Industry Filippov, heads of large enterprises and research institutes, laureates of the State Prize of the Republic of Belarus Gorbachev A.S., who fruitfully works at Belaruskali OJSC, as well as a member of the BSSR delegation to the UN Paremsky B.D.

A new stage in the development and history of the faculty began in April 2002 , when, during the reorganization of the Belarusian Polytechnic Academy, it was formed as a separate structural unit: the Faculty of Natural Resources and Ecology (FNRE), headed by Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor, Academician of the Russian Academy Bogatov B. BUT. The creation of such a faculty was dictated by the need to train specialists in the development of mineral deposits for the Republic of Belarus (potash salts, coal, marl, dolomite, oil, granite, drinking and mineral water, sands and sand and gravel mixtures). On February 15, 2007, the FPRE was transformed into the Faculty of Mining and Engineering Ecology(FGDE), which was headed until April 2019 by Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor Tsybulenko P.V. , a graduate of the Mining and Mechanical Faculty in 1977. Since 2019, the Faculty of Mining and Engineering Ecology has been headed by Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor Kologrivko A.A.

The deputies of the dean are: V.I. Stasevich, G.A. Basalai, A.N. Khripovich A.N, V.A. Kuzmich, E.A. Tishkovskaya.

HISTORY OF THE FACULTY OF MINING AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING AND ITS DEANS

The main specialties of the faculty date back to the beginning of the opening on December 10, 1920 of the Belarusian State Polytechnic Institute. Due to the knowledge of the peat reserves of Belarus, initially the specialties were associated with the subject of development and, accordingly, were called: "peat extraction", "peat business", "deep drilling". One of the first teachers was P. Z. Grabovsky.

The lack of material resources and the lack of specialists for teaching in the departments led to the closure of the university. On July 1, 1922, the CEC of the SSRB decided to reorganize the Polytechnic into the Belarusian State Institute of Agriculture.

The need to create our own fuel and energy base for the industrialization of the country led to the development of a national system for training engineers in Belarus. Already in 1926, studies of the peat fund of the republic were carried out, as a result of which a decision was made to create power plants on peat. In 1929, in a memorandum of the Council of the National Economy of Belarus for the commission of V.P. Zatonsky, it was indicated that “the BSSR, not being a particularly pronounced mountainous region, still has many useful minerals for the national economy, which, with greater intensification of research work, can be used with great success for industrial processing.

In this regard, in 1931, a peat institute was opened in Minsk on the basis of a bog station, but its work was complicated due to the lack of premises. Expensive equipment gathered dust in warehouses. An acute question arose about the need to create a material base for a university of national scale, which would combine a number of small institutions. In his autobiography, the future associate professor of BPI, Deputy Minister of the Local Fuel Industry of the BSSR (1952-53), Deputy Chairman of the State Planning Committee of the BSSR (1954-61) B. D. Paremsky wrote that “in 1928 he entered the Gorki Agricultural Academy to the peat department, which in 1932 was transferred to the BPI ”[Paremsky Boris Dmitrievich // NARB. - Fund 210. - Op. 4. - D. 1108. - L. 4]. In 1935, he graduated from the BPI with the title of "mining engineer for the exploitation of peat deposits."

On July 1, 1933, the Council of People's Commissars of the SSRB adopted a resolution "On the organization of the Polytechnic Institute." The Minsk Peat Institute, together with the Gorki Water Reclamation Institute, became part of the newly organized BPI as a peat reclamation faculty, which trains engineers for the development of peat deposits. The peat reclamation department included the departments of “fuel peat production technology” (N. I. Aksyuchits from July 16, 1945), “peat machines” (I. G. Bloch restored from August 1, 1945) and “hydraulic engineering”. The Department of Irrigation and Reclamation included the following departments: “hydroreclamation” (S.P. Mikhailov), “engineering and hydraulic structures” (S.V. Grodzovsky), “hydraulics” (I.M. Lifshits, since 1946 – Ya.T. . Kovalev) and "geodesy" (M. V. Doroshevich). In 1944-1945. the faculty of peat reclamation operated, which included hydrotechnical and peat-mechanical departments. But already in the autumn of 1945, these departments were designated in the documents as independent faculties headed by one dean. In 1947, on the initiative of the director of the BPI, M. V. Doroshevich, it stood out as an independent hydraulic engineering faculty, which included a peat-mechanical department.

Dean 1933-1938

Doroshevich Mikhail Vasilyevich became the first dean of the peat reclamation facultywho was born in 1900 in Orsha. From 1909 to 1916 he studied at the Orsha real school. In the autumn of 1916 he entered the Petrograd Institute of Civil Engineers, but in 1917 he was forced to leave it due to financial insecurity. In 1922-1926. student of the Gorki Institute of Engineering and Land Management Department, in 1926-1927. - a student of the Irrigation and Reclamation Department, who graduated with the qualification of an engineer-geodesist. Since 1929, he worked at the Minsk State Polytechnic School as the head of the peat department (its main organizer) and a full-time teacher of geodesy. Since 1930, after the reorganization of the Polytechnic, he was the head of the educational department of the Minsk Peat Technical School and a teacher of geodesy and peat surveys.

Since 1931 he has been deputy director of the Belarusian Peat Institute and head of the department of geodesy and peat reclamation surveys . Since 1933, when the institutes of Minsk were merged into a single Polytechnic Institute, he was appointed dean of the peat reclamation faculty and head of the department of geodesy and peat reclamation surveys. In 1938, at his own request, he was relieved of the post of dean of the faculty. From 1947 to 1959 Director of the Belarusian Polytechnic Institute (BPI). From 1959 to 1968 Minister of Higher, Secondary Specialized and Vocational Education of the BSSR [Doroshevich Mikhail Vasilievich // BNTU Archive. - Op. 9. - D. 54. - L. 154].

The 17th Congress of the CPSU (b) and the 15th Congress of the CP (b) B noted in their resolutions that Belarus should carry out its fuel balance on the basis of a local resource - peat. At the April session convened on the initiative of the President of the Academy of Sciences of the BSSR P.O. Gorin in 1934, Belarus was called the “Peated Donbas”. An interesting fact is that already in 1937 changes are planned in the doctrine of training specialists in peat extraction. In the announcement of recruitment for the 1937/38 academic year, along with hydraulic engineers and meliorators, the qualification of "Peat Mining Engineer" appears.

From 1938 to 1941, and after the war until 1948, the peat reclamation faculty was headed by associate professor Kovalev Ya.T. . In 1944-1945. S. P. Mikhailov was mentioned as the dean, who was again replaced by Ya. T. Kovalev. According to the deputy dean of the peat faculty A. Kim, after the war, from 1944 to 1949, the training of engineers for the peat industry was carried out at the hydrotechnical faculty of the BPI.

On March 12, 1949, the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education of the USSR decided to separate the peat from the hydraulic engineering faculty as part of the following specialties: “1. development of peat deposits; 2. peat machines” [2, l. 87].
