On August 1, 1958, by a decree of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR, the Vladimir branch of the Moscow Evening Machine-Building Institute was opened with two faculties: mechanical-engineering and machine building.[3] The institute initially admitted 200 students.
In 1962, in connection with the liquidation of the Moscow Evening Engineering Institute, the Vladimir branch was transferred to the jurisdiction of the Moscow Institute of Electrical Engineering.[3] In February 1964, the branch was transformed into the Vladimir Evening Polytechnic Institute. In the same year, the machine building faculty for radio parts was created, of which the first dean was B. F. Gradusov.[3]
In 1969 Vladimir Evening Polytechnic Institute was transformed into the Vladimir Polytechnic Institute (VPI). In 1993, VPI was once again renamed to Vladimir State Technical University (VSTU) .
On December 30, 1996, VSTU was shortened to read Vladimir State University (VSU), marking its change into a university of the classical type.[4][5] On March 31, 2011, by order of the Minister of Education and Science A.
