NTU «KhPI» has opened a safe educational space for offline learning. It is located in a room with an area of almost 250 square meters on the ground floor. The learning area is equipped with modern computers, interactive whiteboards, Internet connection, and Wi-Fi. The space is equipped with ventilation, fire protection, and moisture protection systems, as well as modern energy-saving lighting fixtures. The educational location was opened by Rector Professor Yevgen Sokol and Vice Rectors for Scientific and Pedagogical Work Ruslan Mygushchenko and Magomediemin Gasanov. The event, which took place on 3 September, 2025, brought together teachers and staff of Kharkiv Polytechnic University.
The rector of NTU «KhPI» Professor Yevgen Sokol, greeted those present with a landmark event and the start of the new academic year. «This safe educational location will allow us to conduct training in an offline format. Recently, the management of our Institute of Energy, Electronics, and Electromechanics met here with their first-year students. You should have seen the happy faces and bright eyes of nearly sixty future engineers who saw their teachers in person and felt the atmosphere of respect, friendliness, and warm communication. We opened two locations at once – the Innovation Campus of the National Technical University «Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute» was partially moved here, and a lecture space began operating. All students who are currently in Kharkiv can come and receive high-quality theoretical knowledge and feel the feedback from their teachers. For now, we plan to hold consultations on various disciplines here every day, as well as classes once a month, but in the future, it may be more often,” emphasized Rector Yevgen Sokol.
It should be noted that the National Technical University «Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute» already has three safe educational locations where meetings with students, career guidance work, and celebrations can be held. In 2023, the first shelter was opened in the academic building, with a capacity of 150 people. Various career guidance and other events of the Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute are held here. In 2025, a shelter was opened in the rector’s building for conducting national multi-subject testing.
«In 2025, we conducted a high-level admission campaign! Confirmation of our overall success is a letter of thanks from the Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine, Oksen Lisovyi. NTU «KhPI» ranked 6th in the country in terms of the number of first-year students admitted to bachelor’s and master’s programs. We are pleased to see that applicants and students trust Kharkiv Polytechnic, want to study here, and gain fundamental knowledge,» said Rector Yevgen Sokol.
The administrative and economic sector of NTU «KhPI», headed by Vice-Rector for Scientific and Pedagogical Work Professor Magomediemin Gasanov, did a great job in preparing the university’s educational space. «Yevgen Sokol set us the task of creating a safe educational location where our teachers could conduct offline classes and consultations with students. The Innovation Campus, which we have partially relocated here, will host lectures for IT students. We converted several more library rooms into classrooms. We did all this on our own. I am grateful to all our services, which did their job in a timely and high-quality manner to ensure the functioning of this educational space,» said Vice Rector Magomediemin Gasanov.
