The Department of Information and Measurement Technologies was established on March 3, 2025 through the merger of the Department of Information and Measurement Technologies and Systems (IMTS) and the Department of Computer and Radioelectronic Control and Diagnostic Systems (CRSTD). This article provides historical background information on the co-founding departments.
History of the IMTS Department
The Department of Information and Measuring Technologies and Systems (IMS), founded in June 1961, celebrates its 50th anniversary. The origins of the scientific school of the department date back to the Electrical Engineering Faculty of the Kharkiv Institute of Technology (KhTI), namely the departments of Theoretical Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering and Automation and Telemechanics. The first graduation of engineers with the specialization in Electrical Measuring Technology took place in 1954 (group E-39b). During 1961–1974, the Department of Electrical Measuring Technology was headed by the first head – Oleksandr Vasilyevich Fedorov, a well-known specialist in the field of electromagnetic measurements, a graduate of the Kharkiv Electrotechnical Institute. Among the first teachers of the department were V. I. Dyakin, V. I. Pisklyarov, V. I. Bondarenko, V. O. Fedorov, K. S. Poluliakh and O. P. Kopnyaeva is the daughter of the outstanding scientist-electrician P. P. Kopnyaeva.
It is worth noting the significant contribution to the creation of the scientific school of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of the Higher Attestation Commission of Ukraine, Ph. D., Professor K. S. Polulyakh. He studied at the Leningrad Electrotechnical Institute, where he defended his candidate’s thesis. His teachers were famous scientists O. V. Fremke, M. M. Razumovsky, M. P. Bogoroditsky. Since 1953, Professor K. S. Polulyakh began working at KhPI, where he taught the course “Electronic Measuring Instruments” and initiated the creation of an educational laboratory to provide the discipline with laboratory practicals. The laboratory studied heterodyne and capacitor frequency meters, capacitance and inductance meters, measuring generators, coulometers, oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers. This contributed to the development of the direction of research on electronic measuring instruments at the department. The accumulated material was summarized by K. S. Polulyakh in the textbook “Electronic Measuring Instruments” (1963), which received the MV SSO of the Ukrainian SSR seal and was recommended for students of higher education institutions of the Ukrainian SSR. In 1966, K. S. Polulyakh’s textbook “Electronic Measuring Instruments (Analog and Digital)” was published. This was the first textbook in the USSR for these courses, it received the MV SSO of the Ukrainian SSR seal and was recommended as a textbook for students of the “Information and Measuring Techniques” specialty. The work of K. S. Polulyakh, dedicated to the creation of a generalized theory of self-oscillating (resonant) measuring instruments, deserves special attention. He proposed the theory of resonant measuring instruments, the methodology for their calculation, the basics of design and error analysis. P. I. Tatarsky, E. M. Goncharov, Yu. I. Rozdovsky, V. I. Pisklyarov, L. G. Temnyk.
In 1970, in accordance with the requirements of the USSR Ministry of Education, the name of the specialty was changed to “Information and Measuring Equipment”. The name of the department also changed accordingly. The number of full-time and evening students increased to 3 groups. This was due to the growing demand for specialists in the specified specialty.
A significant stage in the development of scientific research of the department is associated with the teaching and scientific work of V. I. Dyakin. A graduate of KhPI, he became one of the founders of the department. He took an active part in the development of its curricula and programs. For more than 30 years, he served as deputy head of the department, was a member of the academic council of the faculty. He developed the training courses “Fundamentals of Metrology and Measuring Equipment”, “Analog Measuring Instruments”, was the author of 4 textbooks with the seal of the Ministry of Education of Ukraine, one of which was awarded the second prize of the Ministry of Education of Ukraine. This collection of practical tasks is currently considered the best in Ukraine. Under his leadership, during the 1960s and 1970s, the department’s teachers participated in research work on the creation of measuring instruments and systems for studying cavitation processes and non-stationary regimes of hydroturbines.
In 1972, the department, under the leadership of E. G. Shramkov, held meetings of the USSR Scientific and Methodological Commission on Electrical Measuring Equipment, which included O. V. Fremke, M. P. Tsapenko, V. M. Shlyandin and other prominent scientists, which is a recognition of the advanced positions of the Department of Electrical Measuring Equipment.
Under the leadership of Associate Professor O. V. Fedorov, the direction of scientific research (1960–1974) on testing ferromagnetic materials and their use for measuring electrical and non-electrical quantities was developed. The work was led by Associate Professor V. I. Pisklyarov, and the performers were Associate Professor V. I. Bondarenko, Eng. O. M. Baranov, and Asst. S. I. Kondrashov. In the 60s and 70s of the last century, interest in magnetic information carriers grew rapidly. In the USSR, the research and implementation of information carriers on thin magnetic films required the creation of new equipment and methods for controlling the magnetic properties of such products.
The first works (responsible performer Senior Lecturer V. I. Pisklyarov) were carried out for the Beloritsky Metallurgical Combine, subsequent ones for the NPO “Electron” in Zelenograd (Moscow Region).
In 1974, O. V. Fedorov was replaced as head of the department by K. S. Polulyakh. At that time, the scientific direction initiated by this scientist was gaining powerful development. A digital micrometer, a device for active control of the dimensions of parts during their processing, an automatic machine for sorting bearing rings, and control schemes for a sorting machine were developed. The devices were repeatedly demonstrated at the VDNH of the USSR and were awarded a bronze medal. Based on the results of the work, E. M. Goncharov defended his candidate’s thesis. At the same time, Jurgen Kletzner (GDR) led the development of a capacitor rejection machine at the department, the results of which were summarized by him in his dissertation. The department began a long-term cooperation with the Malyshev plant. M. V. Krivogin, L. O. Medvedev, I. I. Topolov, and others worked under the leadership of K. S. Polulyakh. In 1980, K. S. Poluliakh’s monograph “Resonance Measurement Methods” was published, which presented theoretical generalizations of the properties of phase generator circuits.
The next stage of the department’s scientific work was the development of the theory of bigenerator circuits. On this basis, equipment for bench tests was developed at the Malyshev plant. The term “bigenerator measuring devices” was first used in the works of K. S. Polulyakh and V. K. Guselnikov. In total, Prof. K. S. Polulyakh trained 7 candidates of technical sciences, published 2 textbooks, 2 monographs, and received 25 copyright certificates for inventions.
In 1975, the department was headed by Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor, Honored Worker of Science and Technology of Ukraine Serhiy Mykolayovych Terentyev. He graduated from the Air Force Academy named after Prof. Zhukovsky, served at the Kharkov Military Engineering School named after Marshal N. I. Krylov as a senior lecturer, head of the department, and deputy head of the school for scientific and educational work. In 1966 S. M. Terentyev defended his doctoral dissertation. The scientist’s main scientific achievements: development of the theory of operation of decimeter radio wave generators; research of single-circuit circuits of decimeter wave autogenerators; development of the design and implementation of meter radio wave autogenerators with coaxial resonators, methods of optimal coding for digital transmission of continuous signals, etc. He also developed the theory of noise-resistant codes in the residual class system and proposed a number of engineering solutions for their application in digital transmission channels. A number of scientific developments carried out under his leadership have been implemented in military and space technology.
The appointment of Prof. S. M. Terentyev as head radically changed the scientific and educational directions of the department’s development. He began to introduce statistical methods of receiving and processing signals, prepared courses on “Fundamentals of Information Transmission”, “Information and Measurement Systems”, “Information Theory”, “Methods and Techniques of Optimal Signal Processing”, “Methods of Optimization of Digital Communication Systems”. Under his leadership, new laboratory workshops were developed: “Study of Communication Channel Parameters”, “Statistical Signal Processing”, “Optimal Signal Encoders and Decoders” (S. I. Kondrashov, P. F. Shchapov). Among S. M. Terentyev’s students are 5 Doctors of Sciences, 30 Candidates of Sciences (5 of them in foreign countries). He is the author of over 200 scientific papers, 13 monographs, textbooks, 20 copyright certificates for inventions.
At the department of S. M. Terentyev created a scientific school, among the achievements of which are the defense of two doctoral and 11 candidate theses. Under his leadership, candidate theses were defended by S. I. Kondrashov, O. P. Davydenko. He also contributed to the defense of doctoral theses by V. P. Sebko, O. I. Ovcharenko, K. I. Didenko and many other scientists who communicated with S. M. Terentyev, as deputy chairman of the specialized academic council of KhPI. By the 100th anniversary of the founding of KhPI, the VIT department was the first in the USSR to create a class of microprocessor industrial systems based on MicroDAT tools, which exists to this day. The department established close ties with the Hanoi Polytechnic Institute (S. I. Kondrashov) and created a joint Ukrainian-Vietnamese laboratory, which was headed by S. M. Terentyev and V. P. Sebko.
The result of the development of the scientific direction of non-destructive testing of gas equipment was the creation of a new department “Instruments and Methods of Non-Destructive Testing”, the staff of which was formed exclusively from among the teachers of the Department of IVT and its graduates.
During 1984–1989, the department under the leadership of S. M. Terentyev took part in the implementation of a comprehensive program under the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the USSR and the Academy of Sciences of the USSR for the NPO “Energy”. A research center was created at the department under the leadership of S. M. Terentyev and head of the sector O. P. Davydenko. The work was carried out jointly with the Department of Physics of Metals and Semiconductors and the Department of Resistance of Materials of KhPI. The entire complex of works was called “Microdeformator”. For the development of new technology, O. P. Davydenko was awarded the S. P. Korolev Memorial Medal. According to the results of the work, 2 USSR author’s certificates were received.
Under the leadership of S. M. Terentyev and L. P. Ermolovskaya, significant educational and scientific work was carried out with students from foreign countries. Over the years, the department has trained more than 200 specialists for 11 countries of the world, including Germany, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Mongolia, China, etc.
During 1980–2005, under the leadership of the Honored Scientist and Engineer of Ukraine, Honored Inventor of Ukraine, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor V. M. Chinkov, the department carried out a complex of works for OJSC “MOTOR-SICH” (Zaporozhye). V. O. Tishchenko, V. M. Udovichenko, E. M. Goncharov, O. P. Davydenko, O. L. Kharchenko, V. V. Lysenko participated in the research. The purpose and objectives of the research were determined by the need to develop and improve modern control systems and technical diagnostics of aircraft engines and gas turbine engines for mobile power plants and gas pumping stations produced by OJSC “MOTOR-SICH”. During the cooperation, a system for bench tests of ASSOD-30 engines was automated, and software for automated data processing systems ASSOD-436 (2000) was prepared. The results of these works were implemented under economic contracts with OJSC “MOTOR-SICH” with a great economic effect. Based on the results of these works, candidate dissertations were defended by V. O. Tishchenko and O. L. Kharchenko.
A significant contribution to the development of the scientific school of the department was made by Prof. O. I. Ovcharenko. Under his leadership, a number of works were carried out at the enterprise “Engineering Group TFK”, where a branch of the Department of IVT was created. R. P. Mygushchenko defended his PhD thesis under his supervision. The scientific topics on which R. P. Mygushchenko worked include the study of thermal and vibration processes in industrial facilities with distributed parameters, the study of the characteristics of measuring transducers for temperature, humidity of bulk materials, express control of oil content of grain crops, etc. The Extruder enterprise manufactured more than 1,000 units of equipment (press extruders), which had a wide geography.
During 1998–2001, the department was headed by Konstantin Ivanovich Didenko, a graduate of the Department of Automation and Telemechanics. After graduating from KhPI in 1952, he worked at the SKB SAU enterprise, where he went through a creative path from an engineer of the design bureau to the general director of the scientific and production association “Automatic Control Systems”. In 1982 and 1998, he was a laureate of the Prize of the Council of Ministers of the USSR. In 1998, he was a laureate of the State Prize of Ukraine in the field of science and technology. The author of more than 110 scientific papers, more than 140 copyright certificates for inventions of the USSR and Ukraine, K. I. Didenko developed the concept of aggregate complexes of technical means of the State Instrument-Making System, conducted an analysis of the functional tasks of the complexes, developed a methodology for designing and constructing aggregate means and developing a design layout. For his participation in the creation of the ACS TP of water supply in Kharkiv (based on the “MicroDAT” tools), the author received the State Prize of the Ukrainian SSR.
K. I. Didenko developed new training courses “Introduction to Systems Theory”, “Fundamentals of System Engineering Design of Systems”, “Method of Dynamic System Identification” with a total volume of more than 190 hours for students and masters of the specialty of IMS and MBT. He formed the scientific direction “Control of Dynamic Systems under Uncertainty Taking into Account the Possibility of Their Dynamic Self-Control”. This allowed us to significantly expand and develop methods and systems of non-dismantling test control of measured systems based on the theory of fuzzy sets. The methodological base of the research was developed by Prof. S. I. Kondrashov in close cooperation with K. I. Didenko. It is the systemic approach to solving scientific and practical problems that K. I. Didenko proposed that is being developed by his students in further research by S. I. Kondrashov, V. M. Balev and other doctoral and candidate theses of the Department of IVT.
During the years of leadership of the Department by K. S. Didenko, the practical topics of student research papers, diploma theses of specialists and masters were significantly expanded. All his diploma projects had a deep scientific focus and practical value.
In 2001, the department was headed by S. I. Kondrashov. After graduating with honors from KhPI, under the guidance of S. M. Terentyev, he defended his candidate’s thesis, was engaged in the development of laboratory practical courses on the courses “Fundamentals of Information Transmission”, “Information and Measuring Complexes”, “Fundamentals of Metrological Support of Measuring Instruments”, “Information and Measuring Systems”, “Control of Dynamic Systems”. During 1981–2000, he served as Deputy Vice-Rector for Scientific Work. Under his leadership, the KhPI Metrology and Standardization Service was created, which in 1985–1995 had up to 30 employees, he performed the functions of the chief metrologist of NTU “KhPI”, organized the interaction of the KhPI service with the bodies of the State Committee for Consumer and Consumer Standard of Ukraine, and later opened a branch of the department at the State Enterprise “Kharkivstandardmetrology”.
Since 1980, the scientific direction of S. I. Kondrashov’s work has been devoted to the problem of creating built-in means of controlling metrological characteristics of measuring instruments and channels of measuring systems. This direction has developed to a large extent thanks to the scientific leadership of Prof. Yu. O. Skrypnyk and the scientific and production association of automatic control systems of the NPO “SAU”. The implementation of a complex of economic contract works with the NPO “SAU” allowed the creation and implementation of a microprocessor complex for studying the control of precision characteristics of microprocessor modules for the automation of their acceptance tests and research in the process of their development. This allowed the introduction of an automated test complex at the NPO “SAU” and a hundredfold reduction in test time, increase their accuracy and reliability.
Based on the results of the work, S. I. Kondrashov defended his thesis for the degree of Doctor of Technical Sciences in 2004. He is a leading specialist, known in the field of test methods and control systems and develops the methods introduced by Prof. Yu. M. Tuz, Prof. Yu. O. Skrypnyk – representatives of the Kyiv school of test control methods. S. I. Kondrashov is the author of more than 250 works, 15 patents and copyright certificates for inventions. Professor S. I. Kondrashov was elected an academician of the Ukrainian Academy of Technology.
Professor S. I. Kondrashov trained 5 candidates of science, including V. M. Balev, L. O. Nikitin, I. V. Grigorenko, T. V. Chunikhin. In 2009, P. F. Shchapov defended his doctoral dissertation “Research and development of a Bayesian classifier under conditions of a priori uncertainty”, the scientific consultant of which was S. I. Kondrashov. Since 1987, L. V. Konstantinova has been working at the department, who became one of the authors of the textbook and textbook with the seal of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. These works have become basic in studying the disciplines of the department.
Today, the department “Information and Measurement Technologies and Systems” has 2 branches in production, actively cooperates with the State Enterprise “Kharkivstandardmetrology” especially in educational and publishing activities.
The educational process at the department developed as follows: since 1990 The department is training students in three groups of full-time study, as well as one evening and one correspondence study. In the same year, the specialization “Automation of Scientific Research” was introduced. In 1994, instead of it, on the initiative of Assoc. Prof. S. I. Kondrashov, a new specialty “Metrology, Standardization and Certification” was opened. Since 1996, the department has been training bachelors, specialists and masters in the specialties: “Information and Measurement Engineering”, “Metrology, Standardization and Certification”. Since 1999, bachelors, specialists and masters have been training in two specializations: “Metrology, Standardization and Certification”; “Information and Measurement Systems”.
In 2007, the Department of “Measurement and Information Technology” was renamed and received a new name – “Information and Measurement Technologies and Systems”. This was due to the need to expand the implementation of information technologies in measuring systems, devices and solving the problems of their metrological support.
The foundations of the theory of information technologies of measuring systems were laid in the educational process and scientific research by Prof. S. M. Terentyev. Later, this work was continued by Professors K. I. Didenko and S. I. Kondrashov.

History of CRSTD Dept.
30 years of the CRSTD Dept.
The level of industrial development of Ukraine is characterized not only by the volume of production and the range of products produced, but also by the indicators of product quality, reliability and durability of industrial equipment. An integral part of the product quality assessment system is non-destructive testing. In the 90s, in the eastern part of Ukraine, namely in the Slobozhanshchyna region, there was no specialized department for training specialists in the field of non-destructive testing. Therefore, the issue of training highly qualified personnel in order to provide specialists for various industries became relevant.
The first head of the department of PMNK was Sebko V.P. and the deputy was Gorkunov B.M.
After a difficult and thorough preparation of all the necessary documentation, a group of like-minded people (former employees of the Department of Information and Measuring Technology (IMT) of the Faculty of Automation and Instrumentation of Kharkiv State Polytechnic University) finally achieved their long-awaited goal – on February 8, 1995, the Rector’s Order on the creation of the Department of Instruments and Methods of Nondestructive Testing (PMNK) was signed. It was from that February day, February 8, 1995, that the countdown of work began, which destroys all obstacles for the Department of Instruments and Methods of Nondestructive Testing on its educational, methodological and scientific research path. I would like to note a group of like-minded people, the founders of our department: the first head of the department, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Prof. Vadim Panteliyovych Sebko; First Deputy Head of the Department, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Assoc. Prof. Borys Mytrofanovich Gorkunov; Ph.D., Assoc. Prof. Sirenko Mykola Mykolayovych; Ph.D., Assoc. Prof. Goncharov Yevhen Mykolayovych. Indeed, this group of pioneers made a huge contribution to the history of education of the department, laying a solid foundation of knowledge, skills, experience and deep professionalism in the field of non-destructive testing.
90s at the Department of PMNK: Somkhiyeva O. S., Ivakina N. Ya., Bagmet O. L., Tyupa I. V., Lvov S. G., Globa (Grygorenko) S. M., Telepnev A. V., Dragun O. P.
The PMNK department was replenished with new and new employees, because for high-quality and labor-intensive work, both teachers and scientists were needed. Therefore, after a careful selection of graduate students of the IIT department, young newly-minted trainee teachers came to the department: Globa Svitlana Mykolaivna (now Ph.D., Associate Professor, Associate Professor of the department Grigorenko Svitlana Mykolaivna), Lvov Serhiy Gennadiyovych (now Ph.D., Associate Professor, Professor of the IVTS department), Tyupa Ihor Vasilyovich (now Ph.D., Associate Professor, Director of the Teploelektrotsentral-3 branch of the Kharkiv Heat Networks Enterprise), Somkhieva Olga Serhiyivna (Ph.D., Associate Professor), as well as engineers Bahmet Oksana Lvivna (Ph.D., Associate Professor) and Telepnev Andriy Viktorovich. All these young graduates, immediately after completing postgraduate studies, successfully defended their candidate theses from 1999 to 2001. Thus, the PMNK department was replenished with young assistants with degrees, and after a short time with associate professors, which was necessary to increase the level of accreditation, improve the educational process and strengthen scientific and research work.
The first graduates of the PMNK department
The first intake of students to the PMNK department was held on September 1, 1995 – it was our very first group EMB-35, which entered the newly created specialty “Instruments and systems of non-destructive testing for technical and medical diagnostics”, the curator of which was the first head of the department, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Sebko V. P. The first students were not afraid to plunge into the unknown world of non-destructive testing, with great diligence they passed the difficult path for pioneers to obtaining higher education and in February 2001 brilliantly defended their first diploma theses, receiving the long-awaited specialist diplomas.
First meetings of the specialized academic council D 64.050.09
In 1995, the specialized academic council D 64.050.09 was opened on the basis of the department in the specialty 05.11.13 “Instruments and methods of control and determination of the composition of substances”, the chairman of which was Prof. Sebko V. P. and the scientific secretary was Assoc. Prof. Gorkunov B. M. Thanks to the opening of the specialized academic council, young postgraduate and doctoral students of our department and various other departments of NTU “KhPI” had the opportunity to defend their dissertations on time. In the period from 2007 to 2017, the specialized academic council D 64.050.09 successfully and repeatedly continued its work under the leadership of the head of the special council Guryn A. G., which includes two teachers of the department: Assoc. Prof. Globa S. M. (scientific secretary of the special council), Prof. Suchkov G. M. (deputy head of the special council). Since 2018 To date, the specialized academic council D 64.050.09 also continues to work fruitfully, which includes members of the Department of KRSKD and the Department of IVTs: Chairman of the special council – Dr. Sc., Prof. Mygushchenko R. P., Academic Secretary – Dr. Sc., Assoc. Prof. Lvov S. G., Deputy Chairman of the special council – Dr. Sc., Prof. Suchkov G. M., members of the special council – Dr. Sc. Plesnetsov S. Yu., Dr. Sc., Assoc. Prof. Nozdrachova K. L.
From 1997 to 2000, under an agreement with the Hanoi National Technical University, the Department of PMNK trained middle-level specialists for foreign students in the specialties “Computer Operator” and “Instrumentation Maintenance”, which made it possible to improve the material and technical base of the department. Since 1999, the second specialty “Scientific, analytical and ecological devices and systems” has been opened at the department, so two group codes EMB-39A (“Non-destructive testing devices and systems”) and EMB-39B have already appeared, which are updated every year by more and more new students.
From 2001 to 2004, the department had an international agreement with the Catholic University of Lyon under the TEMPUS program, thanks to which our young specialists Lvov S. G., Tyupa I. V. and junior researcher Telepnev A. V. underwent internships in France and improved their professional level, and thanks to this, the department acquired a modern computer class.
