Welding technologies and equipment

Welding is the heart of modern production. Almost everything that surrounds us – machines, structures, equipment – is held together by reliable welded joints. The educational program «Welding Technologies and Equipment» of the Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic National University trains engineers who can not only weld, but also create truly durable and modern solutions.
Here you will deeply study welding technologies, modern equipment, robotic complexes, materials science, process automation and quality control. The program combines strong theoretical training with a lot of practice. You will work in well-equipped laboratories, where there is all the necessary equipment, including modern robotic systems.
The training is conducted by the Department of «Integrated Welding Technologies and Structural Modeling». The teachers are experienced specialists who work closely with production. Students regularly undergo internships at real enterprises, carry out interesting projects and already during their studies they acquire in-demand skills.
Graduates of the program work as welding technologists, engineers, quality control specialists at machine-building plants, in energy, construction, shipbuilding and many other industries. They introduce new technologies, increase the reliability of structures and always remain in-demand specialists.
If you love technology, want a profession with real hands and a head that will never lose its relevance – this program is created just for you.
Here you don’t just study, but become a specialist without whom it is impossible to imagine modern production.
