We are training universal, wide profile specialists in the fields of high technology at the intersection of materials science, computer science, medicine and biology, able to simultaneously conquer scientific, innovative and commercial heights!
Among the founding scientific schools of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute that have transformed the world of materials science, the school established by outstanding metallurgist, laureate of State Prizes, Honored Scientist and Engineer of Ukraine, Director of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute in 1952–1955, and Academician of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine V. Hrydnyev continues to have a significant impact on Ukraine’s scientific and educational fields related to materials science.
To support the most talented young researchers and encourage outstanding scientific achievements, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, by Order No. 1526 of November 19, 2025, awarded Presidential Academic Scholarships for the 2025/2026 academic year to selected PhD students. The scholarship amounts to UAH 23,700 per month. Among the recipients are two researchers from Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute: Andrii Makarchuk (Educational and Research Institute of Nuclear and Thermal Energy; see Kyiv Polytechnic, No. 3–4, 2026) and Roman Pedan (Yevhen O. Paton Educational and Research Institute of Materials Science and Welding).
Yuriy Yavorsky, Associate Professor of the Department of Physical Materials Science and Heat Treatment (FMTO) at the E.O. Paton Institute of Materials Science and Welding (IMZ), received the Ukrainian Parliament Award for Young Scientists, one of the most prestigious state awards for young scientists.
Recently, information appeared on the Internet that the Ukrainian Armed Forces had created the position of advisor on gender issues and that Oksana Volodymyrivna Grygorieva had been appointed to it.
This time the chess championship among Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute employees gathered 16 players: professors, associate professors, graduate students, heads of departments and other university employees.
How are ideas for developing a new technology and tool born? This question arises when you get acquainted with the materials of fundamental and applied research, which are carried out simultaneously with the educational process on the basis of two departments of the Educational and Research Institute of Materials Science and Welding named after E.O. Paton ( Institute of IMZ) of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute - the Department of Physical Materials Science and Heat Treatment (FMTO) and the Department of Laser Engineering and Physical and Technical Technologies (LTFT).
For many years, the sections “Materials and Additive Technologies” and “Applied Mechanics and Mechanical Engineering”, which are part of the Department of Engineering and Materials Science of the Kyiv Academy of Sciences, have been actively working at the E.O. Paton Educational and Research Institute of Materials Science and Welding of the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute.
The state's status in the modern world is determined by its scientific and technical level and ability for technological development. And materials science itself is currently one of the priorities of scientific progress.
At the end of October, the student team “TermoSyla” of the Department of Physical Materials Science and Heat Treatment (PMSHT) won an international tournament - a startup battle of environmental developments.
