Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture founded in 1930, until 1993 - Kyiv Civil Engineering Institute (KISI). The University is the leading educational institution of the IV level of accreditation in Ukraine for the training of specialists for the architectural and construction industry.

History

It was founded in 1930 on the basis of the Department of Factory and Municipal Construction of the Kiev Polytechnic Institute and the Faculty of Architecture of the Kiev Art Institute as the Kyiv Civil Engineering Institute. At first it was located on V. Chkalov Street, then on Pirogov Street, later it was located in a building built in the style of classicism, along Pobedy Avenue, 10 (then Shevchenko Boulevard).

In 1939, he came under the control of the People's Commissariat for Construction and received the name of the Kyiv Civil Engineering Institute (KISI, Ukrainian KIBI).

In 1963, the Institute moved to a new building (main building) at Povitroflotsky Prospekt No. 31, created by a team of architects: Gopkalo V.I., Katok L.B., Liberberg M.R.

The complex of post-war buildings built in 1949 along Prosveshcheniya Street No. 5 housed a geodetic building, a dormitory and a dispensary.

In 1965-1966, behind the building of the main building, along Enlightenment Street No. 3, a sports complex was built, consisting of a stadium and a three-story building with sports halls and a swimming pool (architects N. A. Gusev, L. B. Katok, M. R. Liberberg .).

In 1966, the assembly hall began to function.

On March 23, 1976, by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, the Kyiv Civil Engineering Institute was awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labor for the successes achieved in training specialists for the national economy and performing scientific research in the ninth five-year plan. In this regard, a granite slab was installed in the hall of the main building. On March 31, 1976, a decree was issued, according to which the institute became known as the "Kyiv Order of the Red Banner of Labor Engineering and Construction Institute."[

In 1978, from the side of Enlightenment Street, a four-story building with classrooms and offices was added to the main building, later connected to the information and computing center building and a nine-story laboratory building.

In 1982, from the side of Ivan Klimenko Street No. 2, a building was built for the Faculty of Architecture (architects Filenko L. I., Gershenzon M. Sh., Korobka V. L.), with an area of ​​14,567 m². During 1982-1983, the students themselves completed the construction and finishing work of the architectural building.

In 1985, in front of the main building of the institute, according to its own project and on its own, the Victory Monument was built, dedicated to the employees of the institute who fell in the Great Patriotic War.

In 1986, from June to August, students of the institute were involved in the design and construction of a village near the village of Zdvizhevka for families evacuated from the Chernobyl zone. The consolidated construction team of KISI worked under the slogan: "We design ourselves - we build ourselves!"

Since the autumn of 1989, students have been carrying out the action "Boycott of the Military Department", located along Ivan Klimenko Street No. 6/4, which took place in many universities of the USSR. Almost all the demands of the boycotters were met.

In 1990, from October 2 to October 17, students took an active part in the all-Ukrainian strike "Revolution on Granite" on Maidan Nezalezhnosti, October Revolution Square in Kyiv.

In August 1993, the Institute was renamed into the Ukrainian State University of Construction and Architecture (UGUCA, Ukrainian UDUBA). Two weeks later, by the beginning of the academic year - to the Kyiv State Technical University of Construction and Architecture (KSTUCA, Ukrainian KDTUBA).

On February 26, 1999, by the Decree of the President of Ukraine Leonid Kuchma, the university was granted the status of a national university with the renaming of the Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture (KNUSA, Ukrainian KNUBA).

In 2011, due to the construction on the territory of the Institute of the 16th residential building on the street. Enlightenment No. 3A, the stadium with stands was renovated.

Ipsos Group is an international research company founded in 1975 by Didier Truchot. Since July 1, 1999, Ipsos has been trading on the Paris Stock Exchange. The company headquarters is located in Paris.

Since 1990, Ipsos has been pursuing a policy of company acquisitions. In October 2011, Ipsos acquired Synovate, leading to the creation of a new combined organization, Ipsos, the third largest research agency in the world. As of 2018, the company has offices in 89 countries employing 17,987 people.

History

Ipsos was founded in 1975 by Didier Truchot. Truchot's initial focus was on providing services to various marketing and media companies, in particular measuring the success of their campaigns using authoring methods that were innovative in France. For example, in 1977, the Baromètre d'Affichage (BAF) was developed to analyze the effectiveness of billboards. It was followed by a tool designed specifically for media evaluation and, in 1979, France des Cadres Actifs (FC), used to establish and analyze the reading techniques of French company executives.

Despite its success, the company's profits remained small until the arrival of Jean-Marc Leh as co-chairman. With his appearance, Ipsos begins to engage in public opinion research.

By the end of the 1980s, Ipsos became the fifth largest media research company in France. The active political life of the state during this period contributed to the strengthening of the company's position in the market, especially in the sector of public opinion research.

European expansion

In the 1990s, Ipsos expanded its operations, mainly through acquisitions in Spain, Italy, Germany, the UK and Central Europe, especially Hungary.

In 1992, to increase its own value, Ipsos attracted private investors. Baring Private Equity became the first new shareholder. Truchot and Lech, the largest shareholders, retained a controlling stake of two-thirds of the company's shares.

World expansion

Having become one of the largest research companies in Europe by the mid-90s, Ipsos enters the global market. After selling 40% of the company to the Artemis Group led by François Pinault and the investment fund Amstar led by Walter Butler, Ipsos has acquired new investment partners.

With the acquisition of Novaction in 1997, Ipsos entered the South American market, and with the acquisition of ASI Market Research in 1998, the North American market.

In 1999, the company appeared on the Paris Stock Exchange. The successful offer that followed allowed Artemis and Amstar to cash out their investment and also gave Ipsos the opportunity to continue its global expansion.

Together with Media Matrix, Ipsos was involved in the creation of the Internet research company MMXI Europe. The company also gained control of four NFO Worldwide subsidiaries specializing in research access panels.

Expansion continued in Asia, South America and especially North America with the purchase of the Canadian company Angus Reid, renamed Ipsos-Reid in 2000.

In 2011, Ipsos acquired Synovate's Aegis Group Plc.

On October 30, 2018, Ipsos announced that it had acquired Synthesio, the world's leading social listening platform since 2014 (according to Forrester).

Specialization

Ipsos specializes in media research, marketing research, sociological research, and customer and employee relationship management.
