The programme is conducted in partnership with the world expert in energy management and automation, Schneider Electric, and one of the major Russian production centres of this company, GC Electroshield CJSC – TM Samara.
A feature of the programme is the unification of commercial and aviation power engineering. This affords the opportunity for working in commercial companies of the energy, aviation, mechanical engineering, petrochemical and other high-tech sectors of industry.
Due to the high practical orientation of the programme, right after completing training, its graduates can find jobs right at enterprises of key partners or start a professional career in other engineering and production centres throughout the country and the world.Brief characterisation of the programme
Training in this programme allows one to become a professional who is capable of implementing large-scale projects in aviation, mechanical engineering, energy and petrochemical fields of industry. The programme includes many internships, including at commercial enterprises during real operation of power engineering facilities.
The resulting professional abilities allow the graduates to be achievers on different levels:- research;
- development;
- industrial-manufacturing;
- managerial.
- study of innovative technologies of production and design in propulsion engineering;
- study of the regulatory aspects of developing and creating complex engineering items;
- study of commercial thermal power systems and management of projects in this field.
Features (advantages) of the programme
The advantages of the programme include:
- Practical orientation. The disciplines are taught by specialists with great production experience. The specialised equipment and material base permit reinforcement of the theoretical material directly in practice. The term papers are aimed at solving relevant engineering problems and are written based on a modern IT-infrastructure.
- Close tie to the leading industrial centres. The students take production internships in major commercial companies with involvement in the implementation of current industrial projects.
- International cooperation with leading foreign universities. The programme participants have the opportunity to share experience by working together with foreign students on engineering projects. Currently there is cooperation with Northwestern Polytechnic University (Xi’an, China).
A feature of the programme is unification of commercial and aviation power engineering.
The programme includes study of:- the methodology of optimal designing of power units and aviation engines;
- thermal power systems of commercial enterprises and experimental studies of aircraft engines.
- regulatory support of energy-saving projects, metrology and product certification.
In accordance with the State Educational Standard of Higher Education, the academic programme consists of three units: disciplines (modules), internship and State Final Certification. The first unit consists of 216 course credit units (CCU), which are distributed as follows:
- 30% engineering;
- 25% specialised;
- 25% natural science;
- 20% humanities.
The State Final Certification is 9 CCUs.
Future profession
Programme graduates may select one of the following career growth paths:
- continue research and schooling for a Master's Degree (including in the specialised Master's programme “Management of Energy-Saving Technologies” within course 24.04.05 Aircraft Engines);
- work in their specialty at one of the leading engineering enterprises (as an engineering designer, design engineer, energy-efficiency improvement specialist, etc.);
- work as a specialist in state agencies and specialised non-engineering organisations such as regional ministries of energy, agency for improving energy efficiency, and others.
