Round Table

The history of Igor Sikorsky Polytechnic Institute is shaped by individuals whose achievements have defined the university's academic and human legacy for generations. One of the most distinguished among them is Professor Volodymyr Serhiiovych Kovalenko, whose contribution continues to inspire the university community. On June 20, 2026, the university marked the 85th anniversary of the birth of this outstanding scientist, whose research and teaching career was as focused and purposeful as the laser beam he devoted his life to mastering.
