ABOUT THE FACULTY OF AUTOMATION AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES

The mission of the faculty is to provide modern and up-to-date professional competencies that will be useful in today’s competitive environment, to promote the comprehensive development of students, and to support the desire to learn and to constantly develop in the direction of the chosen specialty.
Partners of FAIT in various spheres of activity are the Ukrainian Association of Project Management, the European Association of Software Engineering (EASE), the Association of Industrial Automation Enterprises of Ukraine, the Ukrainian Federation of the Security Industry, and various industry organizations and enterprises.
The faculty participates in international educational projects and actively develops in the direction of international cooperation, academic mobility, etc.
Conditions are created for the students of the faculty for maximum intensive development in the chosen specialty and related sciences. The following initiatives have been created for this purpose:
According to the chosen specialty, students (bachelor’s and master’s) receive the following competencies:
– Software engineering – programming of sites, complex network systems, application software; “Everything that is interesting to program will be programmed!”
– Computer science – development, testing, and support of complex information systems and algorithms. “A dream that can come true!”
– Computer engineering – debugging of computer systems, network technologies, support of complex software products and databases. “Now the whole world is a network, so there will be enough work for everyone!”
– Cyber security – protection of data and computer systems from third-party penetration; “All enterprises in all industries need such specialists!”
– Information systems and technologies – the creation of automated design systems and software complexes; “This is an integral part of the work of any industry!”
– Applied mechanics – development of logistics systems; “We are wherever raw materials or goods need to be moved.”
– Industrial mechanical engineering – “Any factory or construction site must be forced to work!”
– Power engineering, electrical engineering, and electromechanics – development and use of electrical equipment; “Electricity is developing rapidly, get involved!”
– Automation and computer-integrated technologies – the creation of automated systems for production; “Everything that the modern world and, especially, Ukraine needs!”
– Professional education. Digital technologies – lecturing work, work in projects of distance and face-to-face learning of computer technologies.
– Professional education. Mechanical engineering professors in mechanics for various educational institutions, and mechanics in various fields.
– Management. Project management (Master only).
– Computer science. Project management” (Master only).
The faculty, founded in 1964, combined the experience of scientific and pedagogical work with the newest specialties of today, which are a reliable basis for the well-being of graduates.
