MECHANICAL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT

The courses given in the Department are designed primarily to provide a broad education in the fundamental mechanical engineering sciences and in economics and business studies. The advanced courses in the Mechanical Engineering Department lead to careers (in technical management) in the fields of design, research, development and production in industry; the government service; the national research laboratories and institution of higher learning; and to those in some branches of teaching.

One group of courses serves the Industrial Engineer­ing stream and the other serves the Engineering Science stream. The former is intended for students whose interests lie mainly in the design and production side of mechanical engineering, the latter is meant for those who are analytically minded and who wish to study in depth of the theoretical techniques used by engineers. After fol­lowing a common first year and before entering the sec­ond year, students are divided into two streams on the basis of their own choice. The courses of study include mechanical, production and electronic and electrical engineering, metallurgy, mathematics and economics. They are supported by laboratory and drawing office exercises. The former includes electronic instrumentation, stress analysis, analogue and digital computation, metrology, etc. The latter culminates in design projects in the final year which are manufactured by second-year students during their second vacation course in industry. In both cases students are engaged in practical work with engineering firms during the summer vacation.

OUR UNIVERSITY

On the 11th of September 2000 (twenty hundred) our Institute was given the name of National Technical University “Kharkiv Polytechnical Institute”. The status of “National” is a recognition of our Institute contribution to the development of national higher education, science and economy.

NTU “KPI” is one of the leading higher educational institutions of Ukraine. It’s also one of the largest and oldest in our city and our country. The Institute was founded in 1885 and was called the Technological Institute. It had only 2 departments (mechanical and chemical) with 280 students. Its first director was V.L.Kirpichov – an outstanding scientist in the field of mechanics.

At present more than 1,300 academic staff including 70 professors and about 700 associate professors are involved in training and scientific research. There are 18 departments numbering 84 chairs in KPI. About 20 thousand students and 320 postgraduates are trained at 67 specialities (at day-time and extramural departments). During its glorious history our Polytechnic has trained nearly 130,000 (one hundred and thirty thousand) specialists.

At the Polytechnic Institute scientific schools well-known all over Ukraine and the world are developed in the fields of physics of thin layers, dynamics and strength of machinery, cutting materials, design and production of turbines etc.

The independence has allowed Ukraine to widen cooperation with foreign countries. Some University departments cooperate with Germany, Hungary, Austria, France and America in various fields of modern technology and business.
