It has been renamed to Technical University of Varna in 1995 with a decision of the National Assembly. Presently it is the second largest technical university in Bulgaria and has a status of a state university. In 2001 the TUV received a certificate for quality of academic training ISO9001 by Bureau Veritas Quality International. In 2003 the institution was reviewed by the European University Association and found to be in very good compliance with the general educational practices in Europe.Training is provided by 358 lecturers of which 11 professors, 151 associate professors and 196 assistant professors. 219 lecturers have PhD degree, 10 of these have a Doctor of Science degree. The university enrolls almost 250 PhD students for the moment. For its over 40 years history TUV developed fully comprehensive and highly sophisticated laboratory base for servicing the training process. The campus is located on a 20 hectares plot of ground and premises comprise of over 6 hectares of covered space including special laboratory and production building, three major lecture buildings, special R&D facilities, extensive library, 24 hour Internet club, covered and open sports facilities, canteen, 3 restaurants, two cafes, students’ discotheque. In close proximity to the main premises are the three blocks of students’ hostels accommodating over 1600 students. The latter have own catering facilities. The parking places can accommodate over 400 cars. The university is located some 3 km from the central part of the city and approximately 2 km from downtown. There is a regular public transport reaching both its location and the hostels. The university’s grounds face an excellent view to the seashore, which is 1,5 km away. The laboratory and training facilities incorporate unique high voltage laboratory, special cast and metal analyses departments, certified LINUX and Microsoft laboratories, internal combustion engines laboratory, communications R&D laboratory, welding and underwater welding laboratory, university computing center, two state-of-the-art navigation training simulators, licensed radio and TV stations. Special LINUX and Microsoft academies operate at the university. TUV has its Hi-Tech Park with Hi-Tech Business Incubator, which is registered as an independent legal body. Some 60% of the research work done is going through this facility. The institution works in close cooperation with many universities and R&D institutions in the country and abroad. The University is located within the boundaries of the City of Varna (370 000 population), which has a history of over 3000 years and still retains traces of one of the oldest civilized human settlements in Europe. The town has an excellent access by land, sea and air and has the largest commercial and passenger ports s in Bulgaria.
