Everything you need to know about targeted admission to BNTU in 2026

The Belarusian National Technical University annually trains specialists in a wide range of engineering, economics, and architectural and construction fields to staff the real sector of the Belarusian economy. Admission through targeted admission is a chance not only to be guaranteed a sought-after engineering profession at the country's leading technical university, but also to be assigned from the very beginning of your studies to a specific organization – the recruiting organization – where you have already been assigned a job.

This year, the key dates for the application process for targeted admission to BNTU are as follows:

• application submission from June 27 to July 2;
• entrance examinations from July 4 to 10;
• admission by July 12.

What specialties are available for targeted admission?

Targeted training at BNTU is offered in 41 specialties, including "Economics and Management," "Automation of Technological Processes and Production," "Robotic Systems," "Mechanical Engineering Technology, Metal-Cutting Machines and Tools," "Industrial Design," and others.

The basis for participation in the competition for a place to receive education under targeted training conditions is a targeted training agreement for a specialist with a higher education, in triplicate, signed by the applicant and the requesting organization.

Please note that finding a future employer is the applicant's responsibility. Employers may include state-owned enterprises or organizations in the real sector of the economy. The procedure for submitting documents for education under targeted training conditions is as follows:

• Review the list of specialties eligible for targeted recruitment;
• Find companies that require specialists in your field;
• Contact the HR department or the company's manager with a proposal to enter into a targeted training agreement;
• Obtain the agreement in triplicate, signed by the applicant and the requesting organization.

An important condition of the contract: after graduating, the graduate is required to work for at least five years at the client organization. If rejected, the state will have to reimburse the funds spent on your training.

What documents must be submitted to the Admissions Committee?

The application process for targeted training at BNTU will be open from June 27 to July 2. The application package includes:

• an application addressed to the rector;
• the original certificate (or diploma from vocational/secondary education);
• a medical certificate of the established form;
• a reference from the last place of study (issued within 5 days of the request);
• a recommendation from the last place of work or the faculty council of the educational institution;
• a targeted training agreement (in triplicate, signed by you and the client);
• 4 photographs 3x4 cm;

Entrance Examinations

BNTU will hold entrance examinations from July 4 to 10. Applicants applying for targeted training (except for certain specializations approved by the Ministry of Education) must take one internal entrance exam at BNTU, either oral or practical. The exam topic corresponds to the first specialized exam. The theory exams include practical assignments in mathematics.

A list of questions (topics) in mathematics and a foreign language for applicants with a general secondary education applying to general or specialized higher education can be found at the following links: Foreign Language and Mathematics (questions and problems).

How can I apply without entrance exams?

• BNTU offers preferential admission (without exams) to the following categories of targeted applicants:
• Winners of international and national Olympiads (I, II, III degrees) in specialized subjects;
• Winners of international and national professional skills competitions;
• Holders of gold (silver) medals, vocational/secondary specialty education diplomas with honors (for admission to teaching or other economically in-demand specialties);
• graduates of specialized professional classes, the National Children's Technology Park, or the BNTU Lyceum with high grades (subject to a successful interview).

Important! If the number of eligible students exceeds the number of targeted spots, admission is based on a competitive process among them.
