For entrants – about the educational and professional program

"Energy Efficiency and Computer Chemical Engineering"

The ITPA Department trains specialists in the field of energy and resource conservation in chemical engineering using specialized software and computer technologies.

The professionally oriented educational courses taught by our department’s teachers were developed in collaboration with leading staff from one of the most modern and reputable universities in the UK – UMIST (University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology).

Our students receive multidisciplinary engineering training.

In addition to general and natural sciences (mathematics, physics, chemistry), they also study:

  • engineering graphics;
  • industrial ecology;
  • computer technology;
  • programming elements;
  • special sections of thermodynamics;
  • energy management and audit;
  • processes and devices of industrial production;
  • methods for diagnosing the reliability of technical systems;
  • integration of chemical and technological processes (pinch analysis);
  • design of energy-efficient production and equipment;
  • use of non-traditional and renewable energy sources;
  • modern approaches to low-waste and resource-saving technologies;
  • creation of simulation models of complex production processes and systems;
  • technical and economic analysis of energy efficiency of industrial enterprises;
  • personnel management to ensure highly efficient operation of enterprises;
  • principles of creating energy technology systems and energy-efficient technologies.

Our advantages

Multidisciplinary training

In addition to general education exact and natural sciences, our students study computer technologies and programming elements, learn how to create simulation models, and learn energy management and auditing techniques.

Modern academic knowledge

Instead of unapplied skills and academic disciplines that quickly become obsolete, we offer students a set of the most relevant knowledge that can make them competitive in the labor market.

Engineering, not chemistry education

Despite the fact that ITPA department is part of the Institute of Chemical Technologies and Engineering, percentage of chemical disciplines in the curriculum is minimized – so our students receive engineering, not chemical, education.

Two specialties in one

Our students receive education in two fundamentally different, but well-combined areas at once. The first of them is energy efficiency and energy conservation. The second is industrial computer engineering and programming.

Separate scholarship ranking

The scholarship of our students studying on a budget basis does not depend in any way on the success of their colleagues in other specialties. Each semester they receive payments according to a separate scholarship rating.

More practice than theory

The training is conducted by practicing teachers with real work experience in industry and IT. The maximum number of classes in each of the core disciplines is allocated for laboratory and practical work.

European education

The uniqueness of the programs that our students study today lies in their orientation to the European educational model.
The complex of disciplines in which the department trains specialists was developed jointly with UMIST and has no analogues in higher education institutions in Ukraine or the European Union.

The basis of the educational program is engineering-oriented disciplines that allow students to develop skills in designing energy-efficient industrial production and creating targeted software.

Our courses reveal the most modern and highly effective methods of optimal use of resources, which simultaneously help solve environmental protection problems.

In addition, we pay attention to studying methods for using secondary energy resources and non-traditional energy sources, we teach production energy management and personnel management, which allows us to ensure high efficiency of production operations.

Graduates are awarded the following qualifications:

  • Bachelor (4 years – 8 semesters);
  • Master (5.5 years – 11 semesters);
  • Master (6 years – 12 semesters);
  • Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) (+4 years – postgraduate study).
