About the program

The development educational program is a comprehensive approach to training a specialist in the field of aerospace engine building and the creation of energy complexes and systems that meets all the requirements of professional standards. It is planned to implement interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary courses and modules on the use of modern digital technologies, such as artificial intelligence, bigdate, digital vision, the Internet of Things. As part of the program implementation, the features of the application of CAD, CAE, PLM, PDM, MES, QMS systems software products will be considered. An important aspect of the program implementation will be the use of business process simulation, the creation of digital counterparts of production processes, models of power plants and engines, programming and the creation of neural networks for quality management processes. It is supposed to attract teachers of the Department of Supercomputers and General Computer Science, standards and modern trends in end-to-end digitalization of organizations to implement this educational program.
The program will significantly strengthen the scientific research of masters through joint research with Harbin Polytechnic University.
