Department : Technical operation of vehicles

The Department of "Technical Operation of Vehicles" is a leading department within the Automotive and Tractor Faculty.

Academic Programs and Training

The department offers high-quality training for mechanical engineers specializing in vehicle service, technical operation, and repair of motor vehicles. It provides education in two specialties: 1-37 01 06 "Technical Operation of Vehicles" and 1-37 01 07 "Auto Service." Students can pursue these specialties through full-time, part-time, and shortened part-time (for graduates of secondary specialized institutions) programs. Annually, the department graduates an average of 130-140 specialists, with 70-75 graduating from the full-time program. The department also offers master's, doctoral, and postgraduate studies, and hosts a dissertation defense council. During their studies, students have the opportunity to acquire a military specialty.

Students receive comprehensive training in physical-mathematical, general technical, humanitarian, and specialized disciplines. Their theoretical knowledge is reinforced in educational and research laboratories and through internships at leading auto transport and auto repair enterprises, as well as in industry and academic research institutes.

Curriculum and Research Focus

The department monitors global trends in the automotive industry, continuously updating the content and methods of its academic and research work. Currently, significant attention is given to studying electronic systems of vehicles. The achievements of the department over the years are significant and evident.

Career Prospects and Further Education

Graduates acquire the necessary knowledge to pursue further studies not only in the master's program at BNTU but also at other institutions, including international ones. The department also educates foreign students and master's candidates.

The qualifications, competencies, and skills obtained by graduates enable them to quickly and successfully integrate into design bureaus and departments of automobile manufacturing plants, research organizations, and production positions at car and truck service enterprises. Diligent graduates are in high demand and often rapidly advance in their careers, eventually occupying senior positions such as section masters, chief specialists, and enterprise directors.

Industry Collaboration

The department collaborates with leading automotive transport enterprises to reinforce the practical application of the knowledge gained during training and to conduct research aimed at improving vehicle maintenance and repair processes. A branch of the department has been established at Atlant-M LLC, and a cooperation agreement has been signed with Minsktrans State Enterprise.
