War

🕯It is with deep sorrow that we announce that our university student Roman Andriychuk was killed in the war
(02.02.2005 — 12.11.2023)

In June, on Volodymyr Boiko’s birthday, a memorial plaque in his honor was unveiled in Building 18 of the FIOT at Kyiv Polytechnic Institute.

At a meeting of the Academic Council of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, Oleksandr Dmytrovych Mokhunko—a senior lecturer in the Department of Health and Sports Technologies (FBMI) and a veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war—was awarded the Honorary Distinction of the University’s Academic Council.

😢 Our university community has suffered another loss. It has been reported that another student of Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, Artem Krulikovsky, has died.

🕯 Maria Bigun (Leut), a graduate of Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, was killed in the war (August 28, 2000 — February 21, 2026)

🕯Kyiv Polytechnic student Daria Lopatina (July 8, 2006 — September 2, 2025) was killed in action.

Igor Sikorsky KPI became the venue and an active participant in the “Safety Distance” event, which focused on the use of remote systems for detecting explosive objects in mine action. Such technologies minimize risks to people and speed up the survey of territories.

🕯 Volodymyr Muzh (May 12, 2001 – February 5, 2026), a graduate of our university, died in the war.

🕯 The Kyiv Polytechnic community is once again in mourning.

He was 36 years old.

📓 The presentation of the manga “The Flutter of a Butterfly’s Wings” is dedicated to all Ukrainians who are holding on and resisting under the reality of occupation and, of course, to the manga’s hero—political prisoner, artist, and activist Bohdan Ziza.
