History

• In 1957 the Soviet government created the Siberian Branch of the USSR Academy of Sciences and built Akademgorodok, a new scientific town on the Ob river near Novosibirsk, whose founders feared that the institutes would lack young researchers.1957 年苏联政府创建苏联科学院西伯利亚分院，并在新西伯利亚附近的鄂毕河畔兴建科学城阿卡杰姆戈罗多克；分院创办者担忧所属研究所后继乏人。

• In the late 1950s Siberia produced 75 per cent of the country's coal and held 80 per cent of its hydropower resources, yet its science was largely applied, and the Academy concluded that a new kind of research university was needed.20 世纪 50 年代末，西伯利亚贡献了全苏 75% 的煤炭产量并拥有 80% 的水力资源，但其科学多为应用性质，科学院因此认为必须创办一所新型研究型大学。

• On 9 January 1958 the Council of Ministers of the USSR issued the decree establishing Novosibirsk State University, and preparatory courses for prospective entrants opened in the same year.1958 年 1 月 9 日苏联部长会议颁布决议创建新西伯利亚国立大学，同年学校开设了面向入学者的预科课程。
