About Us
In the early 1940s, the State University in Varna, St. Cyril Slavyanobulgarski (Bulgarian: Държавния университет „Свети Кирил Славянобългарски“) had two faculties, Economics and Technology. These faculties formed the foundation of the Technical University of Varna and MEI-Varna. The city of Varna had expertise in areas such as shipbuilding, mechanics, and building auto-body parts. That knowledge and experience led to the development of the technical faculty into an institution. In the 1950s, professors and engineers from other technical universities joined the State University.
The main areas of study were:
- Engineering
- Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering
- Electrical engineering
- Building architecture
- Industrial chemistry
The lecture courses and practical engineering work were carried out in the State University/University of Economics-Varna building. From 1958, the State University was composed of 30 departments.
