Chief of the Department

Chief of the Department
Oleksandr Gavva
Doctor of Technical Science, Professor

The department carries out training of specialists in the educational degrees "Bachelor", "Master", "Doctor of Philosophy" in the field of knowledge "Mechanical Engineering", specialty 133 "Industrial engineering", at the educational programs "Engineering of food production", "Engineering of pharmaceutical and biotechnological productions".

The Department also trains the specialists in the field of knowledge "Production and Technology" in specialty 186 "Publishing and Polygraphy", educational and professional program "Computer technologies of design and manufacturing of packaging".

In addition to the basic, more than 25 new disciplines were introduced to new training plans, which are mainly aimed at assimilating computer technologies during the calculations, designing and operation of technological equipment.

The educational process uses specialized laboratories of fermentation, dairy, meat and baking industries, pharmaceutical and microbiological industries, which are represented by operating models of equipment.

There are two computer classes with modern personal computers. Students use AutoCAD, Inventor and COMPASS-3D soft for creation 3-D equipment models in academic and research work; ELCUT - system of simulation of two-dimensional boundary tasks of continuum media mechanics; FlowVision software suite - for fluid flow simulation; Inventor and CREO software systems - for simulating stress-strain state of equipment components".

The University has a specialized academic council for the defense of thesis at scientific degree "Doctor of Sciences" and "Doctor of Philosophy". Applicants have the opportunity to defend their thesis in specialty 133 "Industrial engineering".

During the long period the Department has trained about 9000 specialists. Most of the graduates are employed at the management and engineering positions of the food, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

The main direction of scientific researches of the Department is the development of theoretical foundations of technological processes and the creation of highly effective equipment for all branches of the food, processing, pharmaceutical and biotechnological productions. This direction was founded by professors Ivan Kukharenko, Glib Znamensky, Vsevolod Stabnikov, Volodymyr Popov, Avram Mikhelev, Oleksii Lisovenko and others.

The development and scientific justification of the methods of intensifying of mass-exchange apparatus of the food industry was described in the scientific articles of Vadym Anistratenko, the Academician, Professor.

Vitalii Taran, Professor researched the mass-transfer (in particular, the processes of alcohol distillation and rectification) and mechanical processes and improved their hardware design.

In 1998, Vadym Anistratenko, Professor and Vitalii Taran, Professor were awarded the State Prize of Ukraine in the Field of Science and Technology for the articles cycle at alcohol rectification.
