History

The predecessor of this award was the title "Distinguished Figure in Science and Technology or Arts," established by the

Central Executive Committee of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic on January 13, 1934. It was awarded for particularly valuable work in the fields of science and technology or for significant discoveries and inventions, or for outstanding scientific popularization activities. The conferral of the title was made solely by the resolution of the All-Ukrainian Central Executive Committee upon the recommendations of people's commissariats, the Central Executive Committee of the Moldavian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, regional executive committees, republican trade unions, and other public organizations.[4][5]

The name of the award has undergone several changes. According to the Regulation "On Honorary Titles of the Ukrainian SSR" approved by the

Presidium of the Verkhovna Rada
of the Ukrainian SSR on September 26, 1944, the titles "Honored Figure in Science of the Ukrainian SSR" (Заслужений діяч науки УРСР) and "Honored Figure in Science and Technology of the Ukrainian SSR" (Заслужений діяч науки і техніки УРСР) were conferred. In the resolution of the Presidium of the Verkhovna Rada of the Ukrainian SSR dated October 10, 1969, only the title "Honored Figure in Science of the Ukrainian SSR" (Заслужений діяч науки і техніки УРСР) was mentioned.

The title "Honored Figure in Science and Technology of the Ukrainian SSR" was an honorary title established initially on September 26, 1944. It existed until 1969, and it was reinstated by the Presidium of the

Verkhovna Rada of the Ukrainian SSR on November 15, 1988.[6]

Individuals who were awarded this honorary title received a breast badge made of silvered non-ferrous tombac. According to the decree of the Presidium of the Verkhovna Rada of the Ukrainian SSR, the breast badge was worn on the right side of the chest. The title "Honored Figure in Science and Technology of the Ukrainian SSR" was revoked by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on May 17, 2001.[7]
