Biography

Drozd graduated from Kyiv University in 1966, pursuing a postgraduate degree at the Institute of Mathematics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in 1969. His PhD dissertation On Some Questions of the Theory of Integral Representations (1970) was supervised by Igor Shafarevich.{{cite web | url = https://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/id.php?id=60005 |title = Yurii Anatolijevych Drozd | publisher = Mathematics Genealogy Project | access-date = September 6, 2023}}

From 1969 to 2006 Drozd worked at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics at Kyiv University (at first as lecturer, then as associate professor and full professor). From 1980 to 1998 he headed the Department of Algebra and Mathematical Logic. Since 2006 he has been the head of the Department of Algebra and Topology (until 2014 - the Department of Algebra) of the Institute of Mathematics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.{{cite web| url = https://www.imath.kiev.ua/people/profile.php?pid=156 | publisher = Institute of Mathematics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine | title = Drozd Yurii Anatolijevych | access-date = September 6, 2023 }} His doctoral students include Volodymyr Mazorchuk.
