The Faculty of Mechatronics and Automatization



Organized in 1953, Electromechanical Faculty is the oldest at Novosibirsk State Technical University (NSTU). The Faculty was renamed as the Faculty of Mechatronics and Automatization in 2009. 15000 engineers for various segments of the national economy such as electrical and power industries, metallurgy, aerospace and transport industries, and others have been trained since that time. Electromechanics is an interdisciplinary subject, and the practical applications of the principles which it embodies could well contribute to massive savings of money in industry. And the programmes offered by the Faculty are aimed at encouraging students to develop interdisciplinary processes, knowledge and skills.

The Faculty offers a multi-level specialist education scheme which provides a large variety of programmes at Bachelour of Science, Master of Science and Engineer of Science levels. The Faculty awards the Bachelor’s (B.Sc.) degree after successful completion of a four-year programme of study. After obtaining the B.Sc. degree students may undertake a two-year programme leading toward the Master’s (M.Sc.) degree with emphasis on theoretical and applied research. It is the policy of the Faculty that research should be carried out in topics which are likely to be industrially or socially useful. Another opportunity for professional career-oriented students is a five-year programme of study leading to the award of the Diploma in Engineering. In addition, the Faculty offers an accelerated two-year programme leading to the award of the Diploma in Engineering to students having associate degrees earned at technical or vocational secondary schools. Graduates holding the M.Sc. degree or Diploma in Engineering wishing to follow a scientific career may prefer to take a postgraduate, Candidate of Sciences programme, in the area of specialization. Career prospects for graduates are exceptionally good. On leaving the Faculty students seeking employment are offered jobs at large industrial plants, companies and firms.

Competent and experienced academic and research staff teach at the Faculty. Many staff members have highest degrees. Some faculty members have won international grants in support of their research. Members of the teaching staff also serve as academic advisers and help students plan their undergraduate and graduate programmes.

Teaching and research facilities include a wide array of instructional laboratories in the University, computer classes equipped with personal computers having an access to the Internet and the richest in the city library.

Training is offered on a full-time or part-time basis. Tuition at the Faculty is free only for those students who fully meet the admissions requirements and successfully pass entrance examinations. Otherwise tuition is sponsored by students themselves, their parents and other private individuals or industrial organizations on a contract basis.
