Polytechnic Lyceum NTUU "KPI" continued to expand the project DTEK "Energy-efficient schools" through cooperation with FHPE NTUU "KPI". An acquaintance with scientific schools, Department of theoretical and industrial heat engineering (TIHE) of this faculty, excursions in the laboratory and the participation of lyceum students in the implementation of research are scheduled.
According to the plan of cooperation on February 10, 2015 an excursion of Lyceum "KPI" students of 9-11 grades in the University Centre "Eco-technologies and energy saving technologies (STC" ECOTES") was held.
