1988-1992

In 1988, on the basis of three institutes - MEIS, the All-Union Correspondence Electrotechnical Institute of Communications (VZEIS) and the Institute for Advanced Training of Managers and Specialists (IPC) - the Moscow Institute of Communications (MIS) was formed.

In 1992, the MIS was transformed by order of the Government of the Russian Federation into the Moscow Technical University of Communications and Informatics (MTUSI).

1931-1946

In the spring of 1931, in Lefortovo (now 8a Aviamotornaya Street), by decision of the People's Commissariat of Posts and Telegraphs, the construction of a special building began, where educational institutions were to be located that trained specialists of all levels for the needs of the People's Commissariat, the so-called Moscow Educational Communications Plant (MUKS), which included and separated from MVTU Institute of Communications Engineers. However, another reorganization of the MUKS led to the fact that the first commissioned building was transferred to the V.N. Podbelsky Engineering and Technical Academy of Communications (ITAS). The construction of the training building was completed in 1936, when its central part was commissioned.

In 1938, the MEINS and the Engineering and Technical Academy of Communications merged. On their basis, the Moscow Institute of Communications Engineers was created, which in 1946 was renamed the Moscow Electrotechnical Institute of Communications (MEIS).

Until 1921: Background

The first decade of the 20th century was marked by the rapid development of all types of telecommunications. By 1918, civil telecommunication engineers were conducted by the Moscow and St. Petersburg Institutes of Railways (wired communications), the St. Petersburg Electrotechnical Institute, where A.S. Popov taught and where several radio operators were trained per year and, finally, MVTU, in which, for example, in 1918, 15 communications engineers were released, of which three radio operators.

Therefore, at the First Delegate Congress of the All-Russian Professional Union of Radio Specialists, held in Moscow in July 1918, the issue of training domestic personnel of signalmen was raised. A. S. Butyagin made a proposal to organize a professional radio school. In February 1919, a telegraph school and radio schools were organized, which were supposed to produce telegraph conductors and radio operators-hearing stations of reception stations, respectively. However, it soon became clear that the rapid development of communication would require technical and engineering personnel. Therefore, it was decided to combine both schools and create an educational institution with more complete programs. This new educational institution was located in a building on Gorokhovaya Street and began working in the same 1919.

The Joint Engineering and Pedagogical Staff developed training programs designed to train engineers and technicians in radiotelegraphy, wire telegraphy and telegraphy. At the same time, the Regulations on Electrical Engineering and the Institute were developed, approved in early 1920. At the school, first the department of electrical engineering was opened, and then the institute. The new educational institution became known as the V.N. Podbelsky Electrotechnical College of People's Communications.

In the fall of the same 1920, 300 people were received. Organizationally, the Electrotechnical College had two faculties: radiotelegraphic and telegraph-telephone. The course of study at each faculty was divided into three levels, which trained telegraph operators, technicians and engineers, respectively. The main form of work was laboratory and practical classes. The main merit in the clear organization of classes and providing the Electrotechnical College with everything necessary belongs to the first presidium of the board of the Electrotechnical College, which included rector A. S. Butyagin, assistant rector for academic and administrative work E. V. Kitler and L. K. Ostrovsky, deans of faculties F.I. Kazakov (radiotelegraphic) and N. I. Evgeniev (telegraph and telephone).

The training of communication specialists was so successful that, according to the decree of the Glavprofobr and the collegium of the People's Commissariat of January 31, 1921, the Electrotechnicum was renamed in February of the same year into the V.N. Podbelsky Moscow Electrotechnical Institute of Communications with the provision of all the rights of higher educational institutions.

The first rector of MEIS, Professor A.S. Butyagin, was not only an outstanding mathematician, but also a talented organizer of the domestic higher school. Since 1924, when MEIS temporarily became part of MVTU, he was appointed First Vice-Rector and practically provided all the educational and methodological work of this oldest technical higher educational institution, and from 1930 to 1941 he was rector of Moscow State University.

In 1921, the first graduation of certified signalmen engineers took place: the radio telegraph faculty - 171 people, the telephone and telegraph - 128 people.
