The first graduation of the mathematics faculty at Gorky University happened in 1957 thanks to the support of Prof. A.A. Lyapunov. He was the head of the programming section of the Department of Mathematics at the V.A. Steklov Institute of Mathematics, USSR. He also was a professor of the mathematics and mechanics faculty of Moscow State University (MSU). The whole academic year 1956-1957 six students of the physics and mathematics faculty of GSU spent in Moscow because there were no computers in the Gorky region, including the almighty VNIIEF (Sarov).
