Vehicle engineering (vehicle maintenance)

60712500 – Transport Vehicle Engineering (by Types) is a bachelor's degree programme aimed at preparing highly qualified engineers in the fields of design, development, manufacturing, technical operation, diagnostics, maintenance and repair of modern transport vehicles. Within this programme, students study the structure, operating principles and technical characteristics of automobiles, railway vehicles, special-purpose vehicles, agricultural and construction machinery, as well as other types of transport equipment. The educational process provides students with theoretical and practical knowledge of vehicle engines, transmissions, chassis, steering systems, braking systems, electrical and electronic equipment, as well as modern automated and intelligent vehicle control systems. Particular attention is given to the technical diagnostics, maintenance and repair of transport vehicles, their reliability, safety, efficiency and operational performance. Students also develop practical skills in vehicle design, engineering analysis and computer modelling using modern CAD/CAM/CAE technologies. The educational process combines theoretical instruction with laboratory and practical classes, industrial internships, engineering projects and research activities. Graduates of this programme can pursue professional careers in transport and automotive companies, mechanical engineering and manufacturing enterprises, technical service centres, logistics and transportation organisations, railway and special-purpose transport companies, public and private institutions, research organisations and higher education institutions. They may work as transport engineers, design engineers, production engineers, vehicle diagnostic specialists, maintenance and service engineers, project engineers and specialists in the technical operation of transport vehicles. The programme is designed to provide specialists capable of contributing to the development and improvement of modern transport vehicles, enhancing transport safety and energy efficiency, promoting environmentally friendly transport technologies, and supporting the digitalisation and intelligent transformation of modern transport systems.
