Quality of education

The Department pays careful attention to ensuring the quality of training highly- qualified personnel for the purposes of electrical power engineering, electrical engineering and industry at all levels of higher education (Bachelor's programmes, Master's programmes, postgraduate training programs, extended education).​ 

Teaching and guiding

Within teaching and guiding, the Department actively participates in the events of the Federal Academic Methodological Association in the higher education system concerning the enlarged group of specialties and areas of training 13.00.00 "Electrotechnics and Heat Engineering". In particular, the head of the Department, Sergey А. Tsyruk, is the chairman of the academic and methodological commission in the field of “Electrical Equipment and Electrical Facilities of Enterprises, Organizations and Institutions” (the area of training is “Electrical Power Engineering and Electrical Engineering”). Тhe Department’s professors are actively involved in development of principal educational programs based on Federal state educational standards of higher education in the area of training "Electrical Power Engineering and Electrical Engineering".​

As for material support the Department is regularly updated and modernized. To carry out research work and to implement educational programs, there are used advanced material and technical resources to ensure the high quality of scientific studies and all types of disciplinary and interdisciplinary training provided for in the curriculum, laboratory, practical, research and independent work of students.
