N.I. Lobachevsky Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics

N.I. Lobachevsky Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics - N.I. Lobachevsky Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics – one of Kazan Federal University’s Institutes. It was established in 2011 at the premises of the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics including N.G.Chebotarev Research Institute for Mathematics and Mechanics and the part of TSUHE’s Faculty of Mathematics. The Institute has Bachelor program, Master program, Postgraduate and Doctoral studies.

History
In 1814 classical university was fully opened with the division of Physics and Mathematics as its part. In 1961 the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics became independent from the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics. In 1978 the Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics was segregated from the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics. In 2011 Nikolai Lobachevsky Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics was established in KFU by merging the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Kazan University and Nikolai Chebotarev Research Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics. Johann Christian Martin Bartels is regarded as the founder of Kazan mathematical school. He was the teacher of outstanding scientists - N. I. Lobachevsky. A. F. Popov, F. M. Suvorov, A. V. Vasilyev, D. M. Sintsov, A. P. Kotelnikov worked at Kazan University in pre-revolutionary period. Corresponding members of the USSR’s Academy of Science, N. G. Chebotaryev, N. G., Chetaev, academicians of the Ukrainian and Belorussian SSRs’ AS, A. Z. Petrov and F. D. Gachov, worked there in post-revolutionary period.
