Ladies and gentlemen,
The existence of the Mining Academy in 1937 was the reason for establishing the Dr. Milan Rastislav Štefánik School of Higher Technical Education, later renamed the Slovak School of Higher Technical Education. At that time the School had only three Sections which were superseded in 1939 by six branches. Among these was the branch of Mechanical and Electrotechnical Engineering within which the Section of Mechanical Engineering was established in 1940. The first lectures to approximately one hundred students were delivered in the academic year 1940/1941 at Vazovova street and Mýtna street in Bratislava.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Let us celebrate with joy the 70th anniversary of the beginning of education of mechanical engineers at the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. I would like to take this opportunity to express my thanks to all who contributed to its development. It is an honour for me to invite you to take part in the events and festivities which are being held from October 20 to October 22, 2010. Sincerely yours,
prof. Ing. Ľubomír Šooš, PhD.
