Six months ago, the Faculty of Law of the Zaporizhia Polytechnic National University introduced the educational AI bot JurLab into student training. Initially, the bot functioned as a simulator of legal situations, where students played the role models of a prosecutor, lawyer, investigator, or human rights defender, analyzed ethical dilemmas, and made decisions. But in six months, JurLab evolved into a full-fledged educational tool with its own “legal core.” Thanks to the implementation of API integrations, the bot gained access to key international legal sources:– HUDOC API — a database of decisions of the European Court of Human Rights– OHCHR API — international UN recommendations in the field of human rights This means that JurLab has become not only a simulator, but also a dynamic knowledge base that allows students not only to react to simulated situations, but also to rely on real legal sources. “JurLab was created not to replace a teacher, but to strengthen a student’s thinking. Previously, students were taught norms in the abstract. Now they can immediately check their decision through the decisions of the ECHR or the UN recommendations - as it happens in real legal practice,” notes the author of the project Yuriy Gavrylov. The bot is already actively used in practical classes and contributes to the development of critical, ethical and analytical thinking of future specialists. The project continues to develop: new scenarios, group work formats are being prepared, and there is a possibility of inter-university cooperation. The author of the project is Yuriy Gavrylov, associate professor of the Department of Constitutional, Administrative and Labor Law, head of the department of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Prosecutor's Office, as well as the founder of the student legal community YGen, an expert in artificial intelligence and a certified Google AI teacher.

Within the framework of the EU Erasmus+ KA107 program, as well as within the framework of the inter-institutional agreement concluded between the Catholic University of Leuven (KU Leuven, Belgium) and the Zaporizhia Polytechnic University, there are opportunities for academic mobility of higher education students and teachers. From October 15 to December 13, Natalia Mironova, Associate Professor of the Department of Information Technologies of Electronic Media, participated in the academic mobility program. The academic internship was conducted under the scientific supervision of Professor Peter Arras and Professor Wouter Sas (KU Leuven). The purpose of the mobility was to work on the functionality and limitations of the Magician Go mobile platform. This educational robot is actively used in STEM projects, but its standard software has limited access to control settings. Therefore, it was necessary to develop a custom driver that provides direct control of the platform without using proprietary software. For this purpose, an analysis of available open materials was conducted and the data exchange protocol was reverse-engineered. The result was the Magician Go control software, which opens up new opportunities for educational and research projects. The experience gained is already being integrated into the educational process during the teaching of the educational components "Robot Control Systems" and "Programming of Robotic Systems", as well as the coordination of areas of joint scientific work between representatives of the Zaporizhia Polytechnic National University and KU Leuven. Working together - developing together!

In the fall semester of the 2025–2026 academic year, teachers of the Zaporizhia Polytechnic National University traditionally implemented the STEM project “Smart House” for students of gymnasiums No. 89, No. 106 and No. 109. The STEM project “Smart House” is engineering that works in real life. Schoolchildren get acquainted with the areas of study at Zaporizhia Polytechnic and, at the same time, create their own “smart” system for the home: with sensors, microcontrollers and programs that control light, security and energy consumption. They do not just learn, but do things that really simplify life. During the work, students got acquainted with the principles of IoT (Internet of Things), learned the advantages of modern technologies and studied the operation of light, motion and temperature sensors, and also developed algorithms for automatic control of lighting, climate and home security. The project also included a presentation of solutions, analysis of their effectiveness and prospects for their implementation in everyday life. According to the students, the most interesting part was assessing the possibilities of energy saving in everyday life through simple and affordable solutions from the Department of Power Supply of Industrial Enterprises. Based on the results of the defense of the presentations of the functional prototype of the "Smart Home", the jury recognized: - Anastasia Vusyk, Yevhenii Kolisnyk from Gymnasium 109 - Victoria Zhadovska, Karolina Krutikova, Anna Tovstokora, Leonid Sapozhynskyi, Anna Sinchenko, Dasha Nigmatova, Anastasia Bohdan from Gymnasium 89 - Roman Holovatenko, Anna Malinovska, Anna Klinkova, Yevhenii Sinenko, Valeria Bolsun from Gymnasium 106 We would like to thank the teachers who accompanied the students on the way to the implementation of the project: Svitlana Ruslanova (Gymnasium 109), Olena Marchenko (Gymnasium 89), Danylo Rengevych (Gymnasium 106).

In January, the Department of Psychology co-organized the psychological recovery workshops “A Journey That Changes and Heals…” from the Center for Assistance to the Rescued (CADA) of Zaporizhzhia. A total of 4 workshops were held: 2 for all interested adults; 2 for high school students and youth. 2 workshops were held online, and 2 at the Center for Assistance to the Rescued Zaporizhzhia, where everyone was welcomed by the CADA team, and the coordinator Kateryna Rakytyanska briefly spoke about the work of the Center. The recovery classes were conducted by Tatyana Borodulkina, a psychologist at the Center for Assistance to the Rescued, an associate professor at the Department of Psychology of the Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic National University, the author of the MAK, the author and psychologist of the project “Psychological Space “Entelechy of Meaning””. 36 participants took part in the classes. Participants from different parts of Ukraine (Zaporizhia, Dnipro, Zhytomyr, Uzhgorod, Samar, Marganets) and from abroad (Germany, England) joined the online formats. Residents of our front-line city took part in the offline format. In particular, members of the Youth Movement "Baida" (Kosmichny District), whose pupils, together with their mentor, actively participated in the lesson planned for high school students. During the workshops, the participants explored themselves and the key meanings of their lives, tracked the dynamics of their psychological state, told others about themselves in various ways, sought their uniqueness and supported each other in the group. With the help of metaphorical associative cards "Reflections on the Carpathian Trail" (author - Tetyana Borodulkina), they made two parallel "journeys": one - to the winter Carpathian forest; and the second - took place in the landscape of the inner world. At a lesson with the pupils of the Youth Movement "Baida", a team game-quest "Treasure in the Cave" was held. The participants were divided into teams, each of which had its own task: to decipher one of the fragments of a philosophical parable about life values. They also played the game "Who am I?" together to raise each other's spirits. We thank the Center for Assistance to the Rescued of Zaporizhzhia for the opportunity to join the psycho-emotional support of adults and children during the war! Thank you to everyone for your active participation! The Center for Assistance to the Rescued in Zaporizhzhia was created on the initiative of the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration, with the assistance of the Government Commissioner for Gender Policy, in partnership with UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund in Ukraine, thanks to the financial support of the governments of Austria, Belgium, Spain, Sweden in cooperation with local authorities and the NGO "Association of Women Ambassadors of Ukraine".

Within the framework of the EU Erasmus+ KA107 program, as well as within the framework of the inter-institutional agreement concluded between the Catholic University of Leuven (KU Leuven, Belgium) and the Zaporizhia Polytechnic University, there are opportunities for academic mobility of higher education students and teachers. From October 15 to December 13, Natalia Mironova, Associate Professor of the Department of Information Technologies of Electronic Media, participated in the academic mobility program. The academic internship was conducted under the scientific supervision of Professor Peter Arras and Professor Wouter Sas (KU Leuven). The purpose of the mobility was to work on the functionality and limitations of the Magician Go mobile platform. This educational robot is actively used in STEM projects, but its standard software has limited access to control settings. Therefore, it was necessary to develop a custom driver that provides direct control of the platform without using proprietary software. For this purpose, an analysis of available open materials was conducted and the data exchange protocol was reverse-engineered. The result was the Magician Go control software, which opens up new opportunities for educational and research projects. The experience gained is already being integrated into the educational process during the teaching of the educational components "Robot Control Systems" and "Programming of Robotic Systems", as well as the coordination of areas of joint scientific work between representatives of the Zaporizhia Polytechnic National University and KU Leuven. Working together - developing together!

On December 23, during a conference meeting of the university's workforce, which was joined by members of the University's Supervisory Board and the Polytechnic students, the rector of NU "Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic" Viktor Greshta presented a report on the implementation of the contract terms in 2025. 2025 for Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic is a year of strategic stability, scaling achievements and strengthening the role of the university as a center of science, innovation and development of the region in wartime. During the year, the Polytechnic not only maintained its pace, but also significantly strengthened its positions. The university continued to diversify funding sources, develop science-intensive projects and implement management solutions that ensure stability and growth prospects. 🎓 The key focuses of the year are innovation and science. Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic University actively developed its own innovation ecosystem: the European Digital Innovation Hub, the Energy Innovation Hub, the Science Park, and the Qualification Center were operating. The University expanded its participation in international scientific and educational programs, in particular within the framework of Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, and other European initiatives. International cooperation in 2025 reached a new level: more partnerships, joint projects, academic mobility, and opportunities for students and scientists. The Polytechnic University is consistently integrating into the European educational and research space, while remaining a pillar for the region. The University continues to modernize educational programs, digitalize processes, develop dual education, and cooperate with business. Career guidance work, new formats of communication with schoolchildren and colleges, and events for young people — all this builds trust and interest in higher education in Zaporizhzhia. 🤝 In 2025, the university remained a reliable educational and humanitarian support: support for students and teachers, volunteering, assistance to internally displaced persons, the work of the Educational Hub for displaced teachers. The Polytechnic continues to work, teach, research and keep the community together. Thank you to our rector for competent management! For the Polytechnic team, there are no obstacles, only goals 💙

NU "Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic" and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Office in Ukraine are linked by fruitful cooperation. Throughout the years of the full-scale war, IOM systematically supports the dormitories of the Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic campus, which have become a shelter for internally displaced persons. Thanks to joint efforts, we have provided the internally displaced persons with multi-purpose support. The improvement of life in the dormitories of Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic has become a good example of effective cooperation. IOM provided financial grants for the repair of premises, rooms and corridors, the replacement of windows and plumbing, and when the task of organizing recreation and high-quality socialization arose, the partners took care of leisure and the moral climate in the places of temporary residence of the internally displaced community. We are glad that this cooperation continues and has its significant results. At the end of 2025, in order to improve the quality of living conditions and ensure proper sanitary standards for internally displaced persons, the university administration turned to the Mission of the International Organization for Migration in Ukraine (IOM) with a request to assist in the repair of common areas (corridor, kitchen, bathroom) and the replacement of entrance doors to rooms in residential blocks on the 7th, 8th and 9th floors, where IDPs live, as well as to equip an accessible toilet for people with disabilities on the 2nd floor in dormitory No. 4. And already at the beginning of 2026 there are results. The International Organization for Migration (affiliated with the UN, Office in Ukraine) carried out free construction and repair works at the Polytechnic within the framework of the project “Responding to the urgent needs of the war-affected population and strengthening the capabilities of local actors in Ukraine” (“IOM Project”), which is implemented by IOM with funding from the Directorate-General for Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations of the European Commission. Comprehensive dismantling and installation works of water supply and sewage systems, electrical wiring, heating were carried out, plumbing, lamps, switches, balcony blocks and windows, doors were replaced, floors and ceilings were repaired, plasterboard partitions were installed and walls were painted on the 2nd, 7th, 8th and 9th floors of the dormitory No. 4 of the Zaporizhia Polytechnic. The total amount of work performed exceeded UAH 3.5 million. We thank our partners for their support and assistance in implementing extremely important projects that directly affect the quality of living!

On January 23, 2025 at 4 a.m., as a result of the Iskander ballistic missile strike on the territory of Zaporizhia, the blast wave caused significant damage to windows, doors, balcony blocks, and slopes in Dormitory No. 5 (Zaporizhzhya, 60 Universytetska/Zhukovsky St.). Thanks to close and consistent cooperation with our university partners, we were able to receive important support from the American organization Global Empowerment Mission (GEM) in partnership with the Howard G. Buffett Foundation (HGBF). As part of the window program created by GEM in partnership with HGBF, 84 window structures with a total area of ​​172.7662 m² were replaced, which significantly improved the living conditions of the dormitory residents and more guaranteed a sense of security and comfort. We thank our partners for their support and assistance in the implementation of extremely important projects that directly affect the comfort and safety of our community! Systematic work continues to improve living conditions in the dormitories of the Zaporizhia Polytechnic University campus for both students and internally displaced persons.
