A modern space for training a new generation of engineers has been opened on the basis of the Instrument Engineering Faculty (PBF).

On December 25, the mysteries and magic of the Christmas and New Year holidays begin. And they are ushered in by the Christian world’s second-largest holiday after Easter—Christmas. Traditionally, it is celebrated not only by believers of various denominations but also by those who are indifferent to religion.

As Kyiv Polytechnic previously reported, at the end of the XIV Festival of Innovative Projects “Sikorsky Challenge 2025,” in accordance with its program and within the framework of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization's project “Global Innovation and Networking Program in Green Chemistry” (GreenChem), the Global Greenchem Hackathon 2025 was held from October 31 to November 2.

The tumultuous year 2025 is drawing to a close. Amid the whirlwind of events, anxieties, struggles, and everyday concerns, a moment has arisen to indulge in a philosophical and historical reflection and take a look at the history of the Department of Laser Engineering and Physical-Technical Technologies. And immediately the question arose: what should serve as the starting point—the establishment of the department as a graduating unit, the launch of the major, the inception of the field, or the creation of the basic laboratories from which it all began?

On November 18–19, 2025, Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute hosted the international scientific and practical conference “Resilient Communities – Stable Future: Ukrainian-Polish Experience in Crisis Response.” It was dedicated to contemporary challenges facing the functioning of socio-economic systems, ensuring the sustainable development of local communities, and implementing effective models for responding to crisis situations.

📌 Every year, the International Competition of Student Research Papers on Artificial Intelligence brings together young researchers who create innovative solutions and develop new ideas, working with the most advanced areas of AI — from Computer Vision to Natural Language Processing.

The first university-wide Open House of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, KPI AbitFest, took place on December 13.

Young people are the most active segment of our society. And students represent its intellectual potential. Student energy is a source of new ideas, innovations, and social change. It is on their shoulders that the responsibility for the country’s recovery and future rests. Traditionally, the best among them are recognized with named awards and scholarships.

Dear Kyiv Polytechnic University students! I sincerely congratulate you on Christmas and the coming New Year! I wish you all the best, good health, success, peace, inner strength, and wisdom!

The winners of the innovative projects competition held as part of the Sikorsky Challenge 2025 festival, which recently took place at KPI, have been announced. They will receive funding to implement their ideas. This is the fourth festival held during the war, so its priorities included a defense forum and projects aimed at protecting the civilian population and critical infrastructure. The authors describe one of the developments that addresses an urgent need: the construction of shelters.
