Biography
Veniamin Goldfarb was born in Izhevsk, Russia to Iosif and Esfir Goldfarb on February 1, 1941. After graduating from High School N30 in 1957,[https://istu.ru/news/zhizn-universiteta/pamyati-uchenogo-1 Izhevsk State Technical University]. ISTU he was accepted to Izhevsk Mechanical Institute, which he graduated from in 1962 with a Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering. He completed his PhD in Technical Sciences in 1969, as well as a Doctor of Science degree in 1986.
In 1988 he become a professor at Izhevsk Institute of Mechanics.[http://энциклопедия-урала.рф/index.php/%D0%93%D0%BE%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%B4%D1%84%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B1_%D0%92%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B0%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%BD_%D0%98%D0%BE%D1%81%D0%B8%D1%84%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87 Encyclopedia of Ural] In 1994 Professor Goldfarb become a head of department and director of Institute of Mechanics within Izhevsk State Technical University. in 1998 he become a head of Gearing Technical Committee within International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science (IFToMM). After 10 years of active involvement he become a member of IFToMM's executive committee and later, in 2012, professor Goldfarb was elected to become a Vice-President of IFToMM.
