Dormitory № 4
This dormitory is very conveniently located compared to other dormitories at Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic National University. It is very close to the university, which allows students to sleep in a little longer before classes. There is also a market, pharmacies, a supermarket, and the Zaporizhzhia 2 train station nearby, and a grocery store right across from the dormitory.

In 2010, turnstiles were purchased, installed, and put into operation at Dormitory No. 4 to prevent violations of residence rules, theft, fights, and damage to personal property and dormitory property; these turnstiles are currently functioning successfully.
Each dormitory resident has been issued an access card bearing their last name, first name, patronymic, academic group number, and the room number where the student resides. All residents have been warned of the possible consequences (eviction from the dormitory) if they transfer their access card to others.

To maintain order in the dormitory, sixteen surveillance cameras have been installed: two of them face the dormitory balconies (the rear side of the dormitory), one in the laundry room, three at the doorman’s station near the turnstile, one near the entrance to the dormitory’s student government center, one at the dormitory entrance, one at the entrance to the dormitory grounds, and two in the dormitory’s rear courtyard. The presence of cameras ensures protection against unauthorized entry into the dormitory and allows for monitoring of the surrounding area.
To maintain proper living conditions in the dormitory, a large number of ongoing repairs are constantly being carried out: repairs to bathrooms, cosmetic repairs to floors and kitchens, and major renovations of some blocks have been completed.
