Problems of providing Kursk Polytechnic Institute with highly qualified personnel (1964–1970)

Relevance. The process of personnel formation of the teaching staff in the initial period of the Kursk Polytechnic institute is of considerable research interest, since it allows us to identify the specifics of the mechanisms of work of newly created institutions of higher education both in general and in a single institution of higher education. The data obtained on the basis of archival materials of a particular educational institution can be used to reconstruct the historical dynamics of the development of the university system, as well as to identify patterns in the staffing process in the regions.

The purpose of the study is to retrospectively evaluate the effectiveness of the staffing of the Kursk polytechnic institute in the early years of its operation.

Objectives: to reveal the specifics of the selection of teaching staff in the organization of the Kursk polytechnic institute; to study the dynamic changes in the staff of the Kursk polytechnic institute; to identify the main problems of staffing the institute in the early years of work.

Methodology. The methodological basis of the research is based on the fundamental principles of objectivity and historicism. In the process of solving research problems, the authors used historical-genetic, historical-systemic, biographical, and retrospective methods.

Results. The generalization of archival sources allowed to objectively evaluating the process of formation and effectiveness of personnel policy of Kursk polytechnic institute at the initial stage of its functioning. Two basic problems of the effectiveness of personnel provision of Kursk Polytechnic Institute were identified.

Conclusions. The active recruitment of staff from among the teaching staff has led to a significant increase in the number of employees, despite the difficulties in providing housing and the lack of postgraduate studies. The measures taken in the form of attracting nonresident teachers, teachers from other higher educational institutions in Kursk, practicing specialists from industrial enterprises, training and advanced training, and the direction of targeted postgraduate studies have made it possible to form a stable staff in more than five years, laying a solid foundation for the further development of the institute.
