Entrance Exam Description
During the selection process we examine the competency of the applicant in two ways:
The faculty decides about the eligibility of the applicant by examining the documents of previous studies (degree, subject, results). This is followed by an entrance exams that evaluate the level of study-language and basic subjects depends on speciality.
The exams can be conducted online. In order to validate the entrant’s person, exams taken remotely are recorded on video, as is the person verification process. The recording is archived for at least five years on University’s grounds and the link to that recording is available in the united base of Ministry of Education of Ukraine.
Program Structure
Semester 1 — Foundations & Principles
- Methodology of Applied Research in Mechanical Engineering — you learn how to conduct engineering research: experiments, measurements, testing and analysis.
- Processes and Systems of Quality Management in Aviation — study quality‑management systems relevant for aviation and mechanical industries: standards, control procedures, certification requirements.
- Diagnostics and Reliability Assessment of Technical Systems — how to test and assess reliability, detect faults, evaluate system life‑cycle and safety of mechanical/technical systems.
- Technologies for Manufacturing & Testing of Innovative Materials / Components — you learn about materials, their properties and how to test and certify them (useful for manufacturing and mechanical parts).
- Statistical Methods in Mechanics / Quality Analysis — using statistics to evaluate quality, perform quality control, reliability analysis, design experiments.
Semester 2 — Advanced Quality & Standardization Tools
- Tribological Mechanics & Surface Treatment Quality — understanding friction, wear, surface treatments of mechanical parts, quality control of surfaces and tribological components.
- Qualimetry in Mechanical Engineering — quantitative methods to evaluate quality: metrics, indicators, standards compliance, certification processes.
- Modeling & Optimization of Standardization and Compliance Processes — learning how to model and optimize processes of standardization, certification, quality control and conformity assessment.
- Intellectual property & Patent Law for Technical Systems — understanding patents and IP issues — useful when dealing with new designs, innovations, certification and market release.
Semester 3 — Specialization, Research & Final Project / Thesis
- Process Quality Management & Certification Practice — applying quality systems, performing audits, certification, conformity assessment, documentation according to standards. (Based on programme description)
- Project / Research work on Quality Assessment of Technical Systems — you carry out a master-level research or design project related to standardization, testing, certification, quality assessment or reliability of mechanical / aviation systems.
- Electives / Specialization Courses — depending on interest: advanced material testing, aviation‑specific standardization, certification of aerospace components, quality assurance in manufacturing or service industries. (The curriculum framework allows flexibility.)
Overview
This program trains you to manage and evaluate quality and reliability of technical systems — especially in mechanical engineering and aviation contexts. You learn about modern quality‑management systems, international and European standards (like ISO, EN, aviation‑specific standards) and how to apply them to real engineering products and processes. The program combines applied mechanics knowledge with standardization, certification, quality control, testing, and materials/technical evaluation — preparing you to ensure safety, conformity and reliability of technical systems. On graduation you get qualification to be a manager of quality systems or a specialist in standardization / certification / quality assessment.
Career Opportunities
With this degree, you can work as a quality manager or quality‑assurance specialist at manufacturing or engineering companies (especially in aerospace, mechanical engineering, aviation). You may also work in standardization and certification bodies, ensuring that products and processes meet international or industrial standards. If you prefer technical work — you can be a reliability engineer, testing / diagnostics specialist, or materials / quality control engineer, checking and certifying mechanical or aviation components. Another path is audit or compliance, helping companies adopt or maintain quality/standardization systems, especially in regulated industries.
