History
The Institute of Tectonics and Geophysics was founded on August, 1, 1971, based on the Far Eastern Research Centre, the USSR Academy of Sciences. Academician Yu. A Kosygin, the Hero of the Socialist Labor, the Lenin prize laureate, was its founder and Director during 17 years (from 1971 through 1988). He invaluably contributed his intellectual potential and managerial abilities to the foundation and development of the Institute as the academic institution. The Academician Yu. A. Kosygin, whose name the institute bears since 2000, created the research staff of associates who were the best graduates from the higher educational schools of the USSR. From the very outset the climate of mutual understanding, democracy and collectivism has arisen in the research work, which was developed further by the Corresponding member of the USSR Academy of Sciences, Ch. B. Borukaev, who was the Director of the Institute from 1989 through 1992, and Professor N. P. Romanovsky, who headed the Institute from 1992 to 2003. This climate is still maintained.
