Problem statement. Everything starts with the bases, both in philosophy and construction sense, Basements and Foundations Department was an essential part for the formation of Dnipropetrovsk Civil Engineering Institute. For its 85 years of existence, it was a reflection of development of the native institute later academy and the construction industry also in the whole. Thanks to a classical base and 40 years traditions of the scientific school, the department staff always did scientific basis and took part in the development of the state construction norms documents. Today, the department develops with considering the requirements of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), the science combining the engineering geology, studying the soil, soil mechanics, creating the model, designing of the foundation and subsurface structure with the use of the modern program complex, production technology works for foundation, monitoring of these works and the safety of the surrounding construction.

Department “workplace safety and health and ergonomics” was created in 1971 at DECI. According to the Order of the State Committee of National Education of USSR on July 9, 1990 № 443 and by the decision of the Scientific Council of Institute on May 28, 1991 was reorganized into the Department of workplace safety and health. Over the 45 years of its existence the department has come a long way in the formation of educational and scientific potentsial

Problem statement Today the new ways of scientific development, personel training, can provide a worthy place of state in the world state space are opened in the reform of the social and economic system of Ukraine. In modern sytem of higher school the development of basic scientific research, in particular that concern the construction industry. Involvement in scientific territories of talented youth, education in its methodological and empirical culture, increasing demands for labor research results, ensuring high efficiency and competitiveness of scientific production, defined as the main task of every university in Ukraine. These changes lead to the need for a qualitatively new approaches to research activities of higher education institutions, namely reproduction, development and enhancement of scientific schools as centers of effective training media and creators of science and technology in the modern world. Research and study of fundamental research schools, including the construction industry is a complex and diversified tasks, its solution was not got a big attention for a long, although construction industry has always been popular and necessary in any political or economic changes. Publications has been appearing since 1990s where authors while studing the achievements of Ukrainian scientists, scientists builders, could guided by primarily professional, not ideological reasons. Resently the relevant studies in Ukraine have got a certain evolution in terms of focus, complexity and depth of analysis. The purpose of the reseacrh is to identify and to characterize academic schools of construction education, particularly in the case of scientific schools of PSACEA. It is methodologically difficult and significant in terms of primary material task that requires deep and systematic study. To solve it in the same article is impossible, so we confine at this stage of forming the conceptual approaches to the systematization and scientific schools, as well as the definition of methodological problems associated with solution of given task. Analysis of the problem research shows, that the scientific achievements of many researchers accumulated a considerable material for the study of the phenomenon of scientific school, but finallythe approaches are not agreed to it in various fields. The studying of the theoretical aspects of the phenomenon of scientific school was initiated in 70-ies of XX century. Exploration of many scientists, including P. Anokhin A. Baev, K. Lange, M. Rodney M. Semenov [1; 2; 6; 12; 13] devoted to the general principles of the functioning of schools as a form of scientific research teams and the agenda of the issue of collective forms of creativity research scientists was offered.
