Dear friends! Dear colleagues! I wholeheartedly congratulate you on the New Year of 2018 and Merry Christmas! I wish you happiness, family warmth, inspiration and success in your work! And our country - the peace...
The year 2017 is passing. It was very difficult for Ukraine and for each of us. This year brought new tests to the Kyiv polytechnics, but also new achievements, breakthroughs, discoveries and impressions.
There is no way it could not be, because our life fell on the times of rapid changes and historical accomplishments. And our university, as always, is at the center of events, in the whirlpool of life. Not without reason already the second our nanosatellite - "PolylTAN-2-SAU" was launched into the near-earth orbit in the outgoing year; the development of civil and defense designation of our scientists, engineers and students was successfully implemented; researchers from the Igor Sikorsky KPI were involved in new international projects and programs; our information security specialists held the highest positions in the world ratings; our students became winners and prizewinners of all-Ukrainian and international Olympiads, contests and sports competitions. But the main thing is that we were able to preserve and develop our scientific and pedagogical schools, and the high level of specialists training at our university is confirmed by high steps in all national university ratings.
And I am convinced that in the New Year we will successfully cope with all the tasks that the time will set us. By the way, we are bound by an important date that we will celebrate in 2018 - the 120th anniversary of our university founding.
Dear friends! The magic night of hopefulness and faith in a miracle gives us a sense of family coziness and mutual love. And also - the expectation of happiness and hope for the realization of dreams. Let these hopes come true, and a sense of family warmth accompanies you throughout the entire 2018.
Strong health to you, creative inspiration and success in all endeavors!
