The history of the department begins in 1930, when in our university, with the creation of the specialty “Dynamics and strength of machines”, which trained specialists of a fundamentally new type, synthesizing deep physical and mathematical training and the skills of a practical engineer. The founders of the specialty were outstanding scientists: Academicians A. F. Joffe, I. V. Obreimov, K. D. Synelnikov, professor I. M. Babakov.

The well-known scientific school of machine dynamics and strength provides every student with great opportunities to prove themselves scientifically. Working alongside scientists, the student acquires fundamental knowledge that will allow him to solve problems in almost any field of science and technology. This enables our specialists to feel confident in the midst of new, rapidly changing technology, to be true creators at any workplace. A special feature of our graduates is that they perfectly master information technologies, develop algorithms for any complex processes, program flawlessly, and know how to use CAD. At the end of the fifties, the department was one of the first to introduce electronic computers and programming methods into teaching and research. In accordance with Order No. 329 of OD dated 07.11.2022 (protocol No. 8 dated 28.10.2022), the Scientific Council of NTU “KhPI” adopted a decision on 08.11.2022 to rename the department “Dynamics and Strength of Machines” (DMM) to the department: “Mathematical Modeling and intelligent computing in engineering” (MMI)

Our graduates successfully work as scientists, programmers, engineers and entrepreneurs in many countries of the world: Bulgaria, Hungary, Vietnam, Germany, Israel, Canada, China, Poland, Russia, the USA.
