Azerbaijan Technical University

Azerbaijan Technical University, usually shortened to AzTU, is a public university specialising in engineering and located in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan.阿塞拜疆技术大学（常简称 AzTU）是坐落在阿塞拜疆首都巴库、以工程学科见长的一所公立大学。

The university today runs nine schools and fifty-four departments with about 884 faculty members and roughly 10,000 students, making it one of the larger engineering institutions of the country.该校现设 9 个学院和 54 个教研部，拥有约 884 名教职人员与近 10000 名学生，是该国规模较大的工科院校之一。

Its roots go back to the 1920 founding of the Baku Polytechnic Institute, and it has been renamed several times before adopting its present title in 1993, while the QS World University Rankings 2027 place it in the 801-850 band.其源头可追溯至 1920 年创办的巴库理工学院，历经多次更名后于 1993 年确定现名，而 2027 年 QS 世界大学排名将其列入第 801-850 位。

History

• On 14 November 1920 the Soviet government decided that the earlier technical school known as the Baku Polytechnicum should be closed and replaced by the Baku Polytechnic Institute.1920 年 11 月 14 日苏维埃政府决定关闭早先的巴库综合技术学校，由新设的巴库理工学院取而代之。

• The new institute focused on training engineers for sectors such as agriculture, civil engineering, electromechanics, economics and oil, reflecting the industrial priorities of Soviet Azerbaijan.新学院以培养面向农业、土木工程、机电、经济以及石油等领域所需的工程师为重点，反映苏维埃阿塞拜疆的产业优先方向。

• In 1923 the school changed its name to the Azerbaijan Polytechnic Institute, widening its title beyond the single city of Baku.1923 年学校更名为阿塞拜疆理工学院，把校名从巴库一市扩展至全共和国。

• In March 1929 the Communist Party of Azerbaijan decided that the school would be divided into three independent institutions covering agriculture, economy and oil.1929 年 3 月阿塞拜疆共产党决定将学校拆分为农、经、油三所各自独立的院校。

• Growing demand for engineers in fields beyond oil later led to an expansion of the curriculum, and in 1934 the school again changed its name, this time to the Azerbaijan Industrial Institute, abbreviated AZPI.石油以外领域对工程师需求的增长推动课程扩展，1934 年学校再度更名，这一次定名为阿塞拜疆工业学院，简称 AZPI。

• The 1934 renaming came with the absorption of civil engineering into the institute, so that AZPI combined industrial training with the construction disciplines.1934 年更名之际学院并入土木工程学科，使 AZPI 在工业培养之外兼设建造类学科。

• The Second World War placed heavy demands on the Soviet Union, and institutes such as AZPI struggled to keep teaching and research running through the war years.第二次世界大战使苏联承受沉重负担，AZPI 一类的学院在战争年代艰难维持教学与科研运转。

• In 1950 the government established a separate Azerbaijan Polytechnic Institute and transferred non-petrochemical curricula to it, so that the oil-oriented side could focus on the petroleum industry.1950 年政府另设阿塞拜疆理工学院并把非石化课程划转新校，使面向石油的一方得以专注于石油工业。

• That polytechnic line continued to evolve and eventually became the Azerbaijan State Oil Academy, a distinct institution from today's technical university.这一理工脉络此后继续演变，最终成为阿塞拜疆国立石油学院，与今天的阿塞拜疆技术大学分属不同院校。

• In 1970 a branch of the institute was established in the city of Ganja, extending the university's teaching beyond the capital Baku.1970 年学院在占贾市设立分校，把办学从首都巴库扩展至外地。

• In 1993 the Azerbaijan Industrial Institute changed its status and became the Azerbaijan Technical University, the name it holds today.1993 年阿塞拜疆工业学院变更体制，成为今日所称的阿塞拜疆技术大学。

• The Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Power Engineering was founded in 1964, gathering departments of thermal and cold technology, power supply, electrical equipment and theoretical electrical engineering.电力与动力工程系创建于 1964 年，下设冷热技术、供电与绝缘、电气与电工设备、电工理论基础等教研部。

• The faculty of Technological Machines was founded in 1986 on the basis of the earlier machine-building faculty, with five departments including machine parts and metrology.工艺机器系于 1986 年在早先机械制造系基础上组建，下设机器零件、计量与标准化等 5 个教研部。

• The Transport faculty was previously called mechanical and received its modern name only in 2001, showing how late the institute's profile shifted toward transport engineering.交通系此前称机械系，直到 2001 年才改用现名，显示学院的工科重心较晚转向交通工程。

• The Metallurgy faculty was founded in February 1964 and includes four departments, carrying the metals and materials traditions of the old industrial institute.冶金系创建于 1964 年 2 月，下设 4 个教研部，承继旧工业学院的金属与材料传统。

• The Radio engineering and communication faculty began in 1960 under the name Electrotechnical before being split into separate electro-technical and radiotechnical faculties.无线电与通信系始于 1960 年，最初名为电工系，后被分为电工与无线电两个独立院系。

• The Automation and Computer Technology faculty was also founded in 1960 and is organised into six departments spanning automation, industrial electronics, mathematics and physics.自动化与计算机技术系同样创建于 1960 年，下设自动化、工业电子、数学与物理等 6 个教研部。

• The Machine-building faculty, founded in 1982, groups five departments covering mechanisation technology, machine parts, theory of machines and physics.机械制造系建于 1982 年，辖机械化工艺、机器零件、机器与机构理论、物理等 5 个教研部。

• The Dean's Office for International Students was founded in 1978 with the stated purpose of training personnel for foreign countries.留学生院长办公室创建于 1978 年，其明示宗旨是为外国培养专业人才。

• The AzTU International Business School was established in 2021, the newest unit added to a body whose core faculties date to the 1960s.阿塞拜疆技术大学国际商学院设立于 2021 年，是这一院系群中最新的单位，其主干院系多可追溯至 1960 年代。

• Across its long history the institute was repeatedly divided and renamed, moving from the Baku Polytechnicum to the Baku Polytechnic Institute, then to AZPI, and finally to the Azerbaijan Technical University.纵观其历史，这所院校一再拆分与更名，由巴库综合技术学校到巴库理工学院、再到 AZPI、最终成为阿塞拜疆技术大学。

• Its more than seven decades of Soviet record supplied engineers for the republic's oil, industry and construction, before the 1993 transition recast it as a national technical university.其逾七十年的苏联办学为共和国的石油、工业与建设输送工程师，1993 年转型后重塑为一所国立技术大学。

• The engineering remit of the institute broadened markedly during a wave of Soviet-era foundation work, as radio engineering opened in 1960 under an electrotechnical name, automation and computer technology began the same year, and electrical and power engineering followed by metallurgy were both added in 1964.学院的工科范围在苏联时期的一波院系创办潮中显著扩展：无线电工程于 1960 年以电工系之名开设，自动化与计算机技术同年起步，电力与动力工程随后连同冶金又于 1964 年一并增设，为日后的工科格局奠定了基础。

• A later founding wave gave the institute machine-building in 1982 and technological machines in 1986, while the old mechanical faculty took its modern transport name only in 2001, so the present Azerbaijan Technical University inherited faculties assembled slowly across four decades of Soviet planning.此后一波创办潮使学院于 1982 年设机械制造系、1986 年设工艺机器系，而旧机械系直到 2001 年才改称交通系，因此今日的阿塞拜疆技术大学继承了苏联规划四十年间缓慢攒起的各院系。
