The Department of Theory of Aircraft Engines trains highly qualified engineers in the field of gas turbine engineering, specializing in the design of gas–air paths of gas turbine engines and blade machines using modern mathematical modeling methods.

Within the educational program “Gas Turbine Installations and Compressor Stations” under the specialty G11 Mechanical Engineering (specialization G11.02 Engines and Power Plants), students gain the knowledge necessary for the development, design, and operation of gas turbine engines for various purposes — including aviation, energy, gas transportation, as well as water and railway transport.

The department’s teaching base includes computer labs, laboratories with operational gas turbine units, and experimental stands for studying components and elements of gas turbine installations, allowing students to combine theoretical training with practical experience.

Students have the opportunity to participate in national and international scientific Olympiads, as well as to join research projects carried out on behalf of leading gas turbine enterprises — providing them with real-world experience and employment prospects.

The department trains specialists capable of analyzing thermodynamic, aerodynamic, and gas-dynamic processes in engines, optimizing their parameters, and creating modern power plants with high efficiency and reliability. Faculty members combine classical fundamental training with up-to-date engineering approaches, enabling students to acquire a wide range of professional competencies — from calculations and modeling to engine design.
