HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT
The Department of Management was established on September 1, 1969. The subject of special pride for the team is that it was the first department of management among 101 agricultural universities in the former USSR.
The founder of the department and its first head is Ivan Ushachov – Doctor of Economics, Professor, Highly Authoritative Scientist, Full member (Academician) of the French Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Foreign member of the National Academy of Agrarian Sciences of Ukraine and the Academy of Agricultural Sciences of Kazakhstan.
Academician I. Ushachov and the staff of the Department of Management during the VI – International scientific-practical conference “Development of agro-industrial production and rural areas of Ukraine: problems and solutions” (Odesa, OSAU, June 18-19, 2015).
At the time of the Department’s foundation, it included Associate professors: I. Ushachov, O. Vakhnovskyi, Ye. Nesvyashchenko; Assistants: R. Ulchenko and V. Chiniaiev. A year later, Ph.D. of Technical Sciences M. Syzonenko and Ph.D. student V. Kurnosenko joined the staff. Associate professor O. Kharkavenko worked at the Department almost since its foundation. At different times the staff of the Department included Associate professors: M. Maharin, Ye. Kovalenko, A. Nesvyashchenko; Senior lecturers O. Syzova, N. Dolhikh, V. Ponomarenko, S. Shvedova, T. Sapiha.
The significant contribution of the Department’s academic staff in the development of theory and practice of agricultural production management is evidenced by the fact that in Soviet times the Department served as a scientific and methodological center for agricultural production management of the Main Division of Higher and Secondary Education of the USSR Ministry of Agriculture. I. Ushachov headed the scientific and methodological section of agricultural production management of the Main Division of Higher and Secondary Education of the USSR Ministry of Agriculture. The problem laboratory for the design of automated control systems (ACS) and dispatching services of the USSR State Committee for Science and Technology was created at the Department.
From the first day of its foundation, along with educational work, the Department’s staff conducted research of mainly applied nature. This work was carried out in agricultural enterprises on contractual basis. On the basis of economic contract issues the Research and Design Bureau (R&D bureau) – a relatively independent subdivision was created at the Department. The R&D bureau scientists (I. Linetska – the Head, V. Prykhoda, S. Shvedova, E. Benimovych, V. Ponomarenko, R. Izmailova, E. Andrianova, Yu. Zolotarev.) were engaged in the development of projects of control systems and their implementation at different levels of agricultural production management.
In addition to R&D bureau, a research unit with budget funding was attached to the Department. It was separated from the problem laboratory “Application of economic and mathematical methods in agriculture”. The researchers of the unit (A. Plakhov, V. Plinskyi, A. Korolev, O. Stavnitser, A. Beliak and others) dealt with the problems of developing automated control systems for agricultural production. Later, in 1976, an independent laboratory of the Department was established. It included three sectors: automated control systems for agricultural production; organization of management in inter-business associations; organization of socialist competition.
At that time, the Department with all its structural subdivisions was the largest educational and scientific unit of the Faculty of Economics. In a single complex it conducted research on agricultural production management, implemented the results of its research in production practice and provided the educational process on appropriate methodological level.
Heads of the Department of Management (Administration) at different times were: Doctor of Economics, Professor I. Ushachov; Ph.D. of Economics, Associate professor O. Kharkavenko, Ph.D. of Economics, Associate professor V. Kurnosenko; Doctor of Economics, Professor M. Sakhatskyi; Doctor of Economics, Professor L. Neikova; Doctor of Economics, Professor Ye. Krushkin. Since 2014, the Department has been headed by Doctor of Economics, Professor H. Zapsha.
Significant efforts of the Department of Management are focused on the intensification of theoretical and applied research in the priority areas of management and marketing in the field of agro-industrial production. Since 2000, the scientific and pedagogical staff of the Department have defended 14 dissertations for the Doctoral and Ph.D. degrees in Economics. Professor M. Sakhatskyi, Professor V. Popovich and Associate professor V. Kurnosenko made a significant contribution to the training of highly qualified specialists for the Department. Under the scientific guidance of M. Sakhatskyi 3 Doctoral and15 Ph.D. thesis were defended, (6 of them – by the Department’s teaching staff).
Currently, the scientific and pedagogical staff of the Department of Management includes highly qualified specialists with Doctoral and Ph.D. degrees in Economics, significant practical and scientific-pedagogical experience, which allows to effectively guide the researchers’ scientific work, as well as to provide a high level of educational, scientific, methodological and educatory work. The Department of Management trains higher education applicants of “Junior Bachelor”, “Bachelor”, “Master”, and “Doctor of Philosophy” (PhD) academic levels. They are offered the latest scientific, theoretical and applied developments in the field of management and marketing; up-to-date information on the mechanisms of state regulation of business; advanced domestic and world experience; qualified consultations and creative cooperation in research activities.
