The Moscow State Automobile and Road Technical University (MADI) was established by a decree of the USSR Council of People's Commissars in 1930 on the basis of the Automobile Department of the Moscow Institute of Transport Engineers and the Higher School of Roads. At the time of its organization MADI had two faculties - road construction and automobile engineering. In 1931 the first graduation of 36 engineers took place.[3]

In November 1987 on the basis of MADI was organized by the Educational and Methodical Association on motor and road specialties, which united 104 universities in 9 specialties and 9 specializations.[citation needed]
