To make a worthy contribution to the development of engineering, production and mechanical engineering of the Ukrainian state and society, the South-Eastern region of Ukraine through the implementation of the following goals:

1. To form highly educated and nationally conscious specialists in the field of engineering, able to contribute to the development of the Ukrainian state and the Zaporizhzhia region, actively participating in the development of the industrial complex taking into account the global goals of sustainable development;
2. Integrate the results of scientific and applied research, innovative activities into the educational program «Technology of mechanical engineering» 3 with the aim of constantly improving the quality of education in the field of engineering in accordance with the standards and recommendations for quality assurance in the European area of ​​higher education, in compliance with the principles of student-centered learning and academic integrity;
3. Ensure conditions for all-round development of the personality by activating the external academic mobility of students of higher education under the educational program «Technology of mechanical engineering», scientific and pedagogical, scientific and pedagogical workers of NU «Zaporizka Polytechnic»; increasing the motivation and involvement of students in the educational process, introducing a personalized approach to learning based on the wide use of distance educational technologies and services, forming individual educational trajectories in the field of engineering, taking into account the possibilities of informal and non-formal education.

Professional engineering activity in the field of design, production, operation and scientific research of technical systems, machines and equipment, robotics and complexes, development of technologies of machine-building industries, teaching activities.

Teaching and learning is based on the implementation of active methods that ensure a person-oriented approach, development of critical thinking and professional autonomy of students. The educational process is built on the principles of student-centered, problem-oriented and interactive learning with a wide range of web technologies. Self-learning is also used. multimedia technologies, mixed and remote (platform https://moodle.zp.edu.ua). modern Moodle learning technologies that ensure flexibility and availability of educational materials. The study of disciplines involves lectures, practical and laboratory classes, work in small groups, which forms horizontal connections between students. Considerable attention is paid to individual work under the guidance of teachers when completing course projects and qualifying master’s work. Master’s students are involved in independent research using the university’s resource base (library, computer classes). Educators are involved in the implementation of complex research projects, pre-diploma practice and preparation of master’s qualification work, which contributes to the formation of practical skills in the field of design and optimization of constructions and technologies of machine production.

Education quality control involves control measures and analytical work on the analysis of their results. The results of the applicant’s learning are assessed using control measures provided for by the educational program and programs of educational components on a 100-point scale or on a two-point scale (passed – not passed). Positive grades for all forms of control are grades from 60 to 100 points on a 100-point scale and a grade of «passed» on a two-point scale. The limit of unsatisfactory learning according to the results of the final control is a grade below 60 points on a 100-point scale or a grade of «not passed» on a two-point scale. Obtaining a grade of 60 points and above implies obtaining positive grades for all mandatory types of current control specified by the educational program of the educational component. The assessment system consists of Current Control, which is carried out in the form of oral questioning or written express control during practical classes and lectures, in the form of student speeches during discussions of issues in laboratory and practical classes, in the form of testing, solving problems, completing practical tasks, etc.

• Semester final control in disciplines is a mandatory form of control of student academic achievements. It is carried out in accordance with the curriculum in the form of a semester test or exam within the terms established by the schedule of the educational process. Includes semester exams and tests, defense of coursework (projects), defense of reports of 3 practices, public defense of qualification work.

Methods for assessing learning outcomes for individual educational components are developed and implemented in accordance with the current «Regulations on the Organization of the Educational Process at the Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic National University» and are reflected in the work programs and syllabi of the relevant educational components.

The educational process under the OPP is provided by the graduation department of mechanical engineering technology. 100% of the teachers of the department have a scientific degree and 70% have an academic title and work at the main place of work.
