Short Description of the Program

Heat power engineering is the most important part of the national Ukraine’s economy. It provides the functioning of all national economy sectors, the consolidation of Ukraine’s subjects, makes a decisive contribution to the formation of the main financial and economic indicators of the country and ensures Ukraine’s energy security.

During the students’ training in the educational program “Heat power engineering” the main emphasis is paid on the formation and development of professional skills in heat power engineering, i.e. the ability to solve complex special and practical problems in professional engagement: the formation and use of heat energy, special non-conventional and renewable energy sources, control over heating and power processes and systems, organizational and legal aspects of heat power management.

The educational program “Heat Power Engineering”» was developed by the working group of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Oil and Gas of the National University “Yuri Kondratyuk Poltava Polytechnic”. The group members are staff with special qualifications.

The educational program focuses on training professionals who have deep knowledge and are able to solve: the availability of investment resources for the industry appeal; the unsatisfactory condition of the energy sector, which continues to deteriorate due to the technical aging of fixed assets, most of which have already depleted their resources and need immediate modernization or replacement; flawed legislation and heavy-handed tariff system for adopting energy efficiency measures; lack of investment for fixed assets modernization of thermal energy.

The program is created taking into account the development of scientific trends and industrial areas of the field, heat power engineer’s tasks and duties in institutions, organizations or research institutes, to increase the competitiveness of graduates in the labor market and their professional and scientific growth.
