For reference . In 2026, the Department of Professional Education and Pedagogy is recruiting students for the specialty 6-05-0719-01 "Engineering and Pedagogical Activity" (DFPO specializations: mechanical engineering, construction, electric power engineering; ZFPO specializations: mechanical engineering, construction) with the qualification "Engineer. Teacher".
Graduates of specialized classes at the UOSO (engineering and pedagogical classes) are eligible to enroll in full-time education based on an interview. The course of study will be four years. College graduates who have obtained a specialty in SSO are eligible to enroll in a part-time program, which is a shortened integrated program, meaning the course of study will be three years.
Traditionally, our graduates work as industrial training instructors, general and specialized subject teachers in colleges, and lecturers at higher education institutions. However, starting in 2026, they will also have the opportunity to work as engineers at companies in their respective fields.
Valeria Sinko, a student in group 10903124 at the Institute of Applied Physics (IPF), helped conduct a quick survey about future careers at the Belarusian National Technical University (INF). Based on the survey's results, the most active students received commemorative prizes with the university logo. Additionally, students and their parents were invited to attend the BNTU Open Day on March 21 .
